Review on ESCORT MAX360 Lightning Directional Bluetooth by Nick Narvasa

Revainrating 3 out of 5

False sun alerts, speed errors and its HUGE

I really hoped you would like it, drove it for almost a week. When I first opened the box the other reviews were no joke, this is HUGE, I've had walkman cassette players in the 90's that were smaller than this one with a better design. So, for an overview of the usage. I can say the sensitivity is poor, I pass the radar and the front sensor only works when I get close to the source and then just stops when I pass the radar with no rear sensitivity. While driving on the freeway with the companion app (which is awful btw) the detector said the speed limit is 25, but actually the speed limit is 50, so i kept getting speed warnings. The final straw was that as the sun went down right in front of me, I continued to receive continuous laser alerts. I am returning these and putting my very old and always reliable V1 fuse inside.

Pros
  • radar detector
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly
