Need Help choosing the right radar detector? We have compiled a list of the most popular radar detectors along with some of the most popular features to help you choose.

If you ask our opinion, we feel that the best radar detectors on the market are the Escort 8500 x50, Escort 9500i, Beltronics RX65 and the Beltronics STi Driver. With a starting point of $299.95 price tag these units may be out of the range for many shoppers.  We rank these radar detectors on top because they offer the longest ranges, all include POP protection and they are upgradeable so they will not become obsolete. 
 
If you live in an area where radar detectors are illegal (Virginia, Washington DC & some countries including parts of Canada) and you can afford $469.95 then the Beltronics STi is the unit for you.  In areas where detectors are illegal enforcement uses RDD's (Radar Detector Detectors) to find vehicles using radar detectors.  The Beltronics STi Driver is the only detector on the market that is immune to all RDD technologies.  If you don't travel to these area's then the Beltronics RX65 for $170 cheaper would be a very good choice.

When looking for a new radar detector we suggest that you choose a unit with Long Range, POP Mode Protection and if you can afford it a unit which is Firmware Upgradeable..  POP™ Mode is a normal K or Ka band radar signal which travels from the radar gun to a target and back in less than a 1/10th of a second. Most cheap radar detectors can not see this signal because it is just too fast for the radar detector to see it. This technology is growing and many of the newer models offer protection for this new technology. Firmware Upgradeable has only been available on some of the more expensive units but recently Whistler incorporated this feature on the XTR-690, XTR-695 & Pro-78 models.  This is nice to have because engineers are always trying to increase performance and having an upgradeable unit gives you the option to send the unit back to the factory to get updated firmware when improvements come out for a small fee.
