Appears discontinued. This is matching the clearance price at Best Buy. Replaced by R8.

Seems to be a strong unit for urban - suburban driving. Would go with the R8 for absolute range.

3C's show the lowest has been $370. Now that it's been discontinued I'd expect even a lower price as time goes on…looks like I'll be able to justify buying one soon lol…

Thanks for the alert OP. I was waiting for the R7 price to come down a bit with the release of the R8. The features / range enhancement of the R8 is complete overkill for my purpose so I bit on this. Arguably the highest rated radar outside of the R8 release and I don't feel the R8 warrants an additional ~$300 over this. Price will probably come down lower in the near future but I'm in the market now and I feel this price is good enough as it used to be $600 MSRP.

I have the R3, got the R7 a while back, and hated it. I am still using the R3.

I have a uniden, and absolutely love this thing. however I have a lower model.

some features are overkill. I dont need to know the direction of where the radar is coming from, I AM trying to KEEP my eyes on the road.

The screen LCD isn't the same as R3, and it was difficult to see under sunlight mine died after a few weeks, and I returned it to Best Buy.

I have both R3 & R7, R7 with arrows wins hands down. When R3 alerts goes off, you slow down & look around for cop which you might not see for awhile. Now with R7 arrows if arrows point to where alert is you know where the bogey is & if you have passed him or it's behind you , you can continue along your journey more quickly. I would never have a radar without arrows ( coming from original Valentine ! previously).

I paid $420 2 years ago. This model just never seems to go lower. Probably helps that it beats everything in this price range.
