REVIEW FAQ ADDITIONAL INFO
 

UNIDEN R8 REVIEW


The new Uniden R8 is Uniden's latest dual arrow directional radar detector which provides directional information.

In our Uniden R8 review, we found the radar detector's performance is significantly improved making the Uniden R8 the most sensitive and longest range detector we've ever tested.

Having more than 16 times the capture distance of a police radar gun, the Uniden R8 provides performance often exceeding all other manufacturers' top performing radar detectors at considerably less money making it a very good value.

The Uniden R8 has the largest color display of any radar detector allowing it to display a wealth of information at the same time, including up to five radar encounters simultaneously, time of day, speed of travel, and direction of travel. Uniden R8 accessories include a hardwire kit for those interested in eliminating the use of the Uniden R8's cigarette power adapter. You can read a detailed Uniden R8 review.

3 of 5 Good Radar but too bulky November 21, 2023
Reviewer: NSX101 from IL United States  
Uniden needs to design slimmer radars with better quality materials. Its a big piece of plastic, like mounting a Gameboy on your windshield. From V1G2 this radar looks generic. It does not look modern. Blocks some view when driving. Aside from looks and build. The Radar works well and customizable. Highly recommend RadarBusters for purchase. They have the best price anywhere. Shipping is quick and direct from manufacturer.
