IRVING, Texas, April 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uniden America Corporation brings drivers the industry’s best performing long-range, multi-directional, radar and laser detector with the introduction of the R7 Extreme Long-Range Radar/Laser Detector. Boasting a new processor that is 50 percent faster than previous models, the R7 is Uniden’s most powerful detector. The R7 takes all of the newest features found in the industry’s most highly rated detectors, the Uniden R1 and R3, and adds advanced multi-directional technology.
Dual antennas detect which direction the radar threat is coming from and provides an alert to drivers via an arrow icon on the R7 ’s large, ultra-bright color OLED display. The detector also shows signal strength and provides additional assurance with a GPS-enabled red-light camera alert and a max speed warning alert.
Additional features include:
- Voice alerts
- Advanced K/KA filter
- Auto dimming display for day/night use
- Customizable selections for voice alerts, display colors and alert tones
“We’re constantly improving our laser/radar detectors to deliver the highest performance the industry has to offer – and in turn, added peace of mind to drivers,” said Mark Pagnotta, president of Uniden America. “As a compact windshield/dash mount design radar detector, the R7 offers the longest-range detection available today, combined with simple, visual and audio alerts that keep drivers informed without distraction.”
The Uniden R7 comes with several accessories, including newly designed single and double suction cup brackets, a DC power adapter with mute button and built-in USB jack, a programming cable, a zippered carrying case and an additional neoprene carrying case.
The R7 is available for an MSRP of $649.99 through major U.S. retailers and at Uniden.com.
