Absolutely satisfied!

Highly recommend the R8 to all drivers. The arrows are spot on. Most road construction is reminding me to be careful. Absolutely love it! Don't wait buy it now.

Exceptional radar detector!

I am not an expert, but this unit works as it should. It will filter all false alert after two or three times on the same route, and it will alert you when a police officers are there! It is quite and it will trigger alarm for no reason. I think, UNIDEN engineers did outstanding job! I am very happy 😊. The response time is quick! It does not show exactly from which side of the road alert triggered. It shows the left and right arrows simultaneously, but it will distinguish between the front and rear. I think, it maybe an option to set the alert coming from the left or right, but it's not important to me. The unit built durable and the screen is very big, and it should work for a decade, but you should not leave it on the sun. I have a windshield tint, and it protects against exposure to the harmful UV light. I am very happy with my purchase, and I recommend it to everyone else to buy it!
