Amazing Detector & Worth Every Penny!
The Uniden R7 EXTREME LONG RANGE Laser/Radar Detector is an impressive and highly effective radar detector that offers exceptional performance, reliability, and advanced features. Here's a breakdown of what makes this device stand out:Range and SensitivityFirst and foremost, the R7’s extreme long-range detection is one of its strongest selling points. Whether you’re driving in the city or out on the highway, it picks up radar signals from a long distance, giving you more time to react. The dual-antennas system (front and rear) significantly improves detection accuracy, and the directional arrows make it easier to identify which direction the signal is coming from—something not all detectors offer.Built-In GPS and Real-Time AlertsThe built-in GPS feature is incredibly useful for filtering out false alerts from stationary sources like automatic door openers and traffic sensors. The real-time alerts for red light cameras and speed cameras are precise and timely, helping you avoid unexpected fines.Voice AlertsVoice alerts are another standout feature. They are clear, easy to understand, and loud enough without being overwhelming. Whether it's an upcoming speed trap or a radar signal in the distance, the voice notification adds a layer of convenience, so you don’t have to constantly watch the screen.Design and BuildThe device itself is sleek and compact, with a user-friendly interface that allows for quick adjustments on the fly. The directional arrows make it easy to interpret which part of the road the radar is targeting, and the display is large and easy to read, even in bright sunlight.Performance and AccuracyWith its extreme range and dual antennas, the R7 has proven to be highly accurate, detecting radar signals from miles away. It’s perfect for highway driving, especially when you need to stay alert for potential threats from both the front and rear. Additionally, the unit offers great filtering capabilities, which reduces the number of false alerts you might encounter with other detectors.Overall ImpressionsIn summary, the Uniden R7 EXTREME LONG RANGE radar detector is a top-tier choice for anyone looking for maximum detection range, precision, and user-friendly features. With its combination of GPS, real-time alerts, voice prompts, and dual antenna system, it delivers an exceptional driving experience, providing peace of mind whether you're navigating urban streets or cruising on the freeway. If you’re serious about staying ahead of speed traps and radar enforcement, this detector is an investment worth making.

Product great. CS terrible.
Long story short I purchased one used via FB marketplace and it is the best radar detector with arrows.The reason I went local VS Amazon is the following:Purchased one from Amazon Resale, instead I was sent a r4 instead. I returned it same day April 16th, they received it April 18th. 3 weeks later they keep telling me they never received nor had it been dropped off yet I have all tracking and receipts that show other wise. As of May 6th, still not refund.I then purchased one new directly from Amazon only for the speaker to not be working. Doing research, it's a common thing. Sent that back given Uniden wanted a crazy amount to ship and fix it and it would be another 2-3 week wait time.Funny enough I returned this one that was brand new snd of course they refunded me before the 1st orderd that wax wrong from Amazon Resale within a week or so of receiving it.So long story short, don't order high dollar items on Amazon at least not used. They won't refund you and will make you wait week or months per some online refuses I've read.

Better than Escort Max 360, maybe.
First off delete Scotts scam review as he doesn't know what he's talking about!!Mounted in 2017 Golf R, received the R7 April 18 and have used since then and replaced a Escort Max 360 which I loved.I-5 in Fife Washington is getting hammered by WSP too slow everyone down to 50 and so far have had 5-6 bogeys every morning at 4am for 2 weeks. Scott I have been hit every morning by KA band by 3-6 hits by half a mile easy and no laser is being used by WSP in cars but motorcycle cops use laser almost all the time so watch for them, usually on the way home. Through the Fife area 1 mile before or after set cruise control to 50 and do not speed through this area, EVER!! In two weeks I have been paced from behind going North in this area twice and one cop had his radar on and got him really early with the rear radar as he nailed the truck behind me doing 70 coming up on me doing 65----close but I new he was back there so I was slowing from 75 from just a minute before. One day hit by Laser with R7 but luckily had adaptive cruise set at 65 and had no hit on detector but saw cop point gun at me and switch to others behind me so be careful with laser detection.KA about the same so far as Max 360 but K band is far superior with R7 and people will tell you no K band really in WA but so far 3 hits from WSP and one in Kent Wa with all cops with radar on full time and picked them up so far I thought all were Hondas or GMC, nope. Falsing so far is about same as Max 360 new software update helped a little on Hondas but trip to Oregon this weekend still picking them up but they need to be really close.Trip to Oregon on Thursday mostly quiet especially in Oregon, creepy did 200 miles no cops and even drove all the way around Mount Hood but nothing! No cops, nothing? Hit 120 once or twice maybe not saying I did but had fun and hope no hidden cameras like they use in Oregon but the locals speed quite a bit.Now on the way back to WA going N at about 7am just past Vancouver WA got a K band from the rear in and out with nobody behind for about 1 mile just a small pack that was following a pack I was in doing 75. First thought was a false from a car or something but detector didn't quit alerting and it was getting stronger so my spidey sense didn't feel right so I set cruise again to 70. Finally saw a car come through the pack from behind with led lights wasn't sure what it was and I was losing the pack I was in because I cut 5 mph just to be safe. Guess what a WSP dark grey Dodge went full K band at a mile back once his pack cleared and he went into the slow lane and hit the beans and caught me in a couple of seconds with detector screaming K band all the way and it was only set at 60% K band!! Wife was impressed the detector had him about 5 minutes before and we agreed the detector just paid for itself because earlier we were going quite a bit faster!!!Had one more rear encounter going N at Chehalis WA and picked it up again early with full on K band going into a 70mph zone to 60mph zone so after last encounter set cruise to 60. Guess what another silver dodge WSP doing about 80 from behind hunting for in front speeders, f --- jerks!! Once again wife was watching detector like a Hawk and was amazed how early the R7 was alerting us on K band.Sorry for long review but Scott You Are Wrong!! In two weeks the R7 probably saved me from a couple of tickets at just a bit over.Max 360 is really good and I like some of its features but its K band range doesn't come close to the R7, I think its over filtered, K band is still out there guys!Arrows are a must as I have had several detectors without them but I will never go back to no Arrows.The R7 switches from front to side to rear faster than the Max 360 but not a deal breaker but so far very impressed with R7!!!Need more time with the R7 but Max 360 currently has saved me over the last year at least 10 times but one ticket on Lidar that was my fault because I didn't react fast enough as it actually gave me a enough time but I was too busy ignoring it.Thanks to Vortex but be careful of band segmentation as I had several readings outside of segmentation on both bands and I don't want to go to court to argue these readings. I run wide on all K and KA bands just to be safe and the R7 still has great range.Lots of K and KA over the last Year so don't believe Scott the lazy cops use RADAR not Lidar!!!Oh and the County Cops coming at you in the oncoming lanes almost always have their RADAR on!Good luck and if you don't have a RADAR detector don't go over 5mph over speed limit or you will get a Ticket!!

Works amazingly!
Works amazingly, it has had a couple false alerts, but that was because i didn't have the right settings.The mounting suction cup is actually super good,It shows my actual speed since I don't have my speedo calibrated. The display is very clear and bright. Very accurate radar overall, would highly recommend
