Good deal for the R4.

"Just drive slow" crowd, save your breath and move on to the next deal.
As a police officer, I love radar detectors because people that have them tend to drive within reason. That being said, almost no departments use handheld radars anymore, it's either moving radar that is almost always on but can be set to stationary mode or handheld infrared lasers, or lidar, such as the Pro Laser Iv. These units will give you warning for moving radar but they won't for lidar. The cone for the laser is 3 feet at 1500 feet, and it doesn't bounce around down the road like radar does. The return speed is less than a second and we aim it at your grill area, not your windshield. I may shoot a laser at you and it doesn't even register on your detector.

That being said, people with detectors tend to be safer drivers, definitely driving slightly above the speed limit but not below the speed limit which is statistically more dangerous to a large extent. This deal seems good and the brand is reliable.
Anyone who wants the R3 over the R4 is crazy. I own both and the R3 has way more false alerts than the R4. I love the more advanced warning of the R4 over the R3.

Thanks for posting this. Last week I ordered an R3 and this was only about $11 more but is a much better radar detector! I was able to return my old one to Amazon and buy this one

Quote from IndigoNest3446 :
TBH, I would rather have the R3. I have an R4 and it alerts at such long ranges that the constant beeping is just annoying. It's literally beeping for well over a mile. I know you can hit mute, but I would rather be alerted slightly later. I do not like muting because we do not know if the threat has moved later on. Improving on distance is no longer an improvement.

That's good info. I watched a comparison video on YouTube of the r3 and r4 and the r4 alerted waaaaaay faster side by side. I guess depending on your area this could be very good or bad.

Currently have the dfr7. Is this a good upgrade or should I splurge on the r7/8?

Mine did that as well until it auto-learned the false alarms. Now she's as quiet as can be.

The R4 is fantastic. I had the R1 prior.

More range is always better.

I just visited Best Buy in Gwinnett and they are full price. Might be YMMV.
