Thanks to the angle of rotation towards the driver, it's super convenient to read the info from the driver's seat - although, to be honest, the voice prompts are more than enough ✔️ You can choose between two voice options - Maria and Peter. Both voices are pleasant and don't get on your nerves ✔️

After passing through the city, the radar detector warned me about all the radars in advance, and it's great that it's got a feature to avoid the laser beams. After the trip, I learned a ton of new names - if you're interested, you can check out the video 📺

If you want, you can hide the power cord Verdict: I'm really happy with this device - after using those old-school radar detectors with a beard and a stick, this one is a total game-changer. It's way more tech-savvy and convenient - you can update it right from your car, or even from your phone ☎️
