The voice alert system informs you when it detects a signal and where it’s coming from, and you can see the signal type and strength on the screen. The four directional arrows on the OLED display do a good job of indicating where a radar signal is coming from. The false alert system works with this detector’s built-in GPS to constantly improve the false signals it filters.

Even with its false alert filtering enabled, it will almost instantly detect K-band and KA-band quick signals. It has one of the best ranges in the industry, but it’s equally as good at detecting quick signals. This model offers 360-degree protection and has almost every feature you could ask for from a top-tier radar detector but has a lower price than its direct competitors. If you want a plug-and-play radar detector that you can confidently hook up and know you’ll be covered on all fronts, buy the Uniden R8.
