Description
Uniden’s R7 is a top of the line radar detector with a built-in GPS feature. With the R7, you can mark geographical points where you commonly encounter radar transmissions. These can be school zones, red-light cameras, and places where Police frequently monitor traffic. You can mark these points so the detector will announce “user mark ahead” when you approach them. Among other announcements, the voice notification feature lets you know when you are approaching a radar and what type of radar it is (red light, speed, etc. ).

Mine came with the newest firmware, newer than Uniden had available for downloading. When you select the menu it first asks if you want the Easy or Advanced menu. I went right for the advanced & holy crap! This thing has a LOT of customizable settings! I was thoroughly impressed. Scanning is completely customizable. Select which bands you want it detect, the range of their frequency to alert, separate alert tones for each, as well as differentiating the arrow colors on the display screen for each. You can set priority for band notifications so if it picks up multiple bogeys it'll alert you in the hierarchy of importance that you've chosen. You can select what speed you want the "quiet mode" to activate to help keep it quiet when rolling through places like a parking lot with automatic door sensors. I could go on & on, but that's what the owners manual is for. The very first time I pulled out of my neighborhood with the R7 it immediately started alerting & kept going. My mind flashed to reviews saying this thing can be chatty & after alerting for 2 miles I assumed it was a false detection, but as I approached mile 3, low & behold there was one of the radar trailers parked & running on the side of the road! My first detection came from 3 miles away! And that was on a residential street through town, not out in the open desert that I bought it for. I am also pleased to say that I don't find the R7 chatty at all. I read that the new firmware that mine came with is supposed to vastly improve filtering false alerts. I haven't experienced an R7 with the old firmware for a comparison, but it is a lot quieter than I expected it to be. There's a single road across the desert to get to where I live, & the population here is over 60K.. so there's literally several thousand cars sharing that one road everyday. I was expecting (per reviews) the R7 to pickup a lot of blindspot monitoring radar while sitting in rush hour traffic, but I've been pleasantly surprised that it actually stays very quiet. So far I've only had it about 10 days, but I'm definitely happy with it & impressed by it. I'll update this review when I've had the detector longer, but as of now I highly recommend the R7 & am definitely happy with my purchase. ** Update: The longer I have it, the happier I am with it. The self leaning/muting feature works quite well! Everywhere I go in town it has already mapped & filters out false signals. Between that & the speed setting for quiet alerts I rarely hear this thing. When it does detect, it's usually from 2-3 miles away on straight roads. I thought the arrows were mostly going to be a novelty for me, but I actually do use them. My cousin was in the car a couple nights ago & she asked about the arrows, so I explained the basics to her. 2 miles down the road I hit an intersection that lit this R7 up like a Christmas tree!! Without any further explanation from me, she was immediately noticed the arrows pointing in all directions & showing different frequencies for each direction, proving that it was picking up multiple bogeys & not just radar reflections. Intuitive enough for her to figure out, & detailed enough to clearly differentiate each bogey. I feel that I got my $460 worth from this purchase. (I have a 600hp car & so far, this nanny has done her job well.)

Love It!! I may be one of the pickiest people in all of creation...and I absolutely love this thing, straight out of the box! Trust me, allot of research involved, but after said research, I went with the Uniden R7 instead of the new Valentine 1, Gen 2, at really close pricing, and I'm not sad that I did. I have yet to set it up as I want (YouTube influencers suggestions), but even just out of the box, it's great. Easy to operate and read...and oh so very sensitive to the things ya want it to be sensitive to. The functions are easy to navigate while driving. Mounted it under my rearview mirror in my Lexus ES 350. Took it on a road trip right after I bought it, and without exaggeration, it saved me 7 times, in 4 different states. Was 1k miles round trip, of mixed types of topography, flat coastal South Carolina driving, up through the Up State of SC & the Piedmont part of North Carolina, up Fancy Gap, all the way up into the winding and elevated driving conditions through VA and WV, and return. Did great in all environments. I love the mute feature utilized along with the in-bedded GPS, to mute most, if not all, of the false K Band readings that come from garage doors, car radar driver assist systems in some other vehicles, large Dept. Store security systems, etc., you can mute them as you pass them on your daily commute, the R7 will remember those mute points and automatically mute them the next time you pass by them. You can still see the alert, but the audio is automatically muted...AWESOME! Side note; I thought that I might miss that the Uniden R7 does not come with Bluetooth capabilities for app/software updating purposes. Found out, I don't miss it one bit. The detector is the easiest to remove and reattach to it's mounting bracket , that it's not even funny. Side note; (THE MOUNTING BRACKET THAT I BOUGHT ON AMAZON IS "SDSACZMU brand Radar Detector Mount and Rear View Mirror Hard Wire Cord Kit 16" $37.99. I did not go with the "BlendMount" version of the same mounting bracket, as it's over $100 for my vehicle, the $37.99 bracket is working just fine, don't waste your money). And the only legit reason that I have encountered so far to utilize Bluetooth is for the software update. With how easy, and how infrequent updates are posted by Uniden, I simply just detach it from it's bracket, bring the device inside, USB the detector to my laptop, go to the Uniden website, let it download the update, slide it right back into it's mounting bracket the next morning, and good to go. Not an issue at all. That's saves me several $$$ by doing that simple step, instead of the R8's seriously inflated price point, to just basically get Bluetooth, not even worth it. That's the only real functional daily application of the Bluetooth capabilities, well that and app integration. I don't need the additional distraction of dealing with an app and the detector...I have enough with things as they are. Just BUY IT already...ya won't be disappointed. I didn't even consider returning it, which I think, left my wife speechless...I'm really, really picky, for what it's worth...and I kept it. You won't be sorry. I purchased this item, not on Amazon's Vine, where things are free, I paid full price for mine.

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!!

If you're on the fence about this, let me tell you if you have a heavy foot, this pays for itself in a month. I also own the R3 which is also great in its own right. Zero false alarms. That's what sets the Uniden apart from cheaper detectors. The Cobra I had prior was beeping constantly. With the Uniden, if you hear the whistle, you can bet your ass there's a cop nearby, or at least a radar detection device. That being said, real world experience I get a half mile notice with clean line of sight, and a quarter mile in most situations. Plenty of time to hit the brakes in most cases. If the cop is driving towards you on the opposite side you might get an eighth mile. Still better than driving blind. I bought the mirror kit and wired this directly into the mirror compass on my Audi. Very clean install. Love it. 👌 Edit: I would also add for those complaining about the setup process, do yourself a favor and download the Uniden app to your laptop and plug it in. Setup took me 15 minutes. Easy to update the camera maps as well. Mine warns me of every traffic camera in my area.

I LOVE this bad boy - it suppresses the predictable background noise PERFECTLY. I'm left with just authentic hits, and hence sensitive to when it alerts. To reiterate, it's outstanding for going to areas you traverse again and again and again. As well, it alerts waaaayyyyyy beyond what my last detector did - I'm VERY PLEASED and pleasantly surprised at how far away it picks up fuzz. And the attachment device has been trouble-free compared to a dozen other things I've tried to attach to my windshield. It's stayed on without a hiccup over the last six weeks so far.

It's a fantastic radar detector and really lives up to its reputation as one of the top 10 radar detectors on the market today. The number of options it allows me to choose from to tailor itself to my environment is absolutely wonderful compared to other radar detectors I have used and observed. Pros: 1. RIDICULOUS RANGE: The website and reviews weren't kidding when they said that the range was ridiculously long. I've been able to detect digital speed limit signs, speed traps, and law enforcement radar signals from roughly one mile to two miles away whereas the Cobra radar detectors and some Escort radar detectors could only pick it up from a couple of hundred meters. 2. DIRECTIONAL DETECTION: Not only does it give the proximity of the signal it's picking up, but it also gives the direction from where it is coming from. 3. RADAR TYPES: It can pick up X,K, Ka, KPOP, MRCD/T, Red Light Cameras, etc. Surprisingly, it can pick up a lot of different types of radar as compared to other radar detectors that can only pick up X, K, and Ka. 4. WILDLY SUPERIOR FILTERING: As you go through the settings, it gives you many filtering options that you can tailor for the environment you drive around in. Something I had a lot of trouble with while using and observing many radar detectors is how poorly the filtering systems performed. For example, in Utah, the traffic light sensors operate on Ka on the 33GHz frequencies which cheaper radar detectors easily picked up. On top of this, the memory lockout systems weren't the greatest in the cheaper radar detectors and often had to be recognized through a connected app. The GPS system and Auto Mute Memory feature plus the numerous filtering options in the settings allow for a much quieter and far more accurate ride from point a to point b. INVISIBLE: Great thing about the r7 is that it cannot be picked up by most radar detector detectors(RDD) like VG-2 and Spectre. It can be picked up by Spectre Elite HOWEVER it cant really do so very well. The Spectre Elite would be able to pick it up but with lots of inaccurate distortions in its readings. It would have to be very close to the r7 to even accurately pick it up. Besides that, its pretty much invisible to RDDs. While there are a whole lot more Pros, I won't go into much more into detail about it. Cons: DOES NOT PICK UP RDD: Unfortunately, something the R7 does not pick up that the cheaper radar detectors pick up like the Cobra RAD480i are the Radar Detector Detectors or RDD for short. While it wouldn't matter much for the r7 since its invisible there are a few underlying reasons as to why I would want the r7 to be able to pick up RDDs. In some areas of the United State, police officers will switch off their radar and only run their RDDs. Not being able to pick up their radar when its turned off and not being able to pick up their RDDs is similar to blindly walking into pitch-black darkness without any clue as to what may be lurking within. Being able to pick up VG-2 and Spectre would be like an added protection to yourself when driving. DIRECTIONAL DETECTION: While it detection capabilities are phenomenal and the that it can give me the direction from which the signals are coming from, it does get confused sometimes by where the radar signals are coming from. Mind you, this isn't a big issue, it happens from time to time, not really a big deal.

I purchased this Uniden R7 on sale for $480, and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with it from the beginning. Initially, I encountered numerous false readings and considered returning it, suspecting it was faulty. However, after fine tuning the settings, it functioned flawlessly, and the accuracy of this device is amazing ! The connectivity was plug and play and incredibly user friendly, but the actual tuning process did require some research and experimentation to determine the best settings for my needs. Amazingly, Amazon offered me an additional $104 discount, making the total cost even more appealing. Considering that it’s almost the same price as the R4 model, but with a remarkable 40x improvement in performance, I highly recommend this product! The screen is the picture looks to be not working but it’s just my camera and the screen works perfectly.

This thing is amazing, it has saved me countless amounts of speeding tickets. It has pretty much every feature that one may need in daily travel. One thing that I don’t think is mentioned enough is it tells you when a laser trap is locked on to you or when a speed camera is active, also which is pretty neat. The only complaint I have about it is the gps connection which doesn’t always connect right away which maybe because of a update that may need to be installed, I just haven’t checked for one yet in the year that I have owned it.
