About UNIDEN R8 Extreme Long-Range Radar/Laser Detector
Overall Feedback:
86% positive
81% praised for its accurate alerts
I have found that the radar detector learns quickly and has the least amount of false alarms compared to any other detector I have used.
The radar detector can detect radar before I even see the source.
The R8 has insane range and the R4 is just as good as the R8 in terms of response and range.
72% praised the sleek and compact design, but 28% found it flimsy and cheaply made
The detector has great performance and is of high quality. It allows a lot of customization to dial it in best for my use case.
I am disappointed with the detector's build quality, especially considering the price.
The USB C port on the side is smashed.
My unit produces a rattling noise when driving over moderately rough roads. I have stripped the detector and traced the sound to the top buttons, indicating that the build quality of the radar detector is not up to the mark.

84% appreciated its long detection range
I can pick up radar much further with this radar detector as it is more sensitive to long range detection.
81% found it easy to operate
The radar detector is easy to use and helps me detect vehicles in front, left, or right.
The radar detector has a long range notice, allowing me to adjust my speed.
73% liked the sound quality, but 27% found it too low
I did not mention anything about the sound quality of the radar-detector.
My unit has a horribly annoying rattling noise when driving over moderately rough roads.
