Have you run CarPlay and been able to run the 360c connected to WiFi at the same time? If it's not possible I'll save the money and go with the Uniden.

I have an Android phone so don't use CarPlay. Back when I had an iPhone I didn't find CarPlay useful. Felt the in car nav was better

Upgraded it multiple times. While I think the V1 still has a slightly better range, the 360c wins everywhere else and is a more intelligent device. As others have said, 360c w/the BM & mirror tap is the best way to go. Laser jamming systems are a whole different ballgame .

Vortex Radar did an extensive test of the Escort Max 360c, Uniden R7, Uniden R3, Radenso Pro M, Valentine1, and a few others. Everything lagged way way behind the Uniden R7 for range, accuracy, and false. The 360c was best in terms of filtering and auto lockouts. Valentine 1 was way back in almost all categories. Unfortunately the V1 has seen its day. |
Big fan of Vortex Radar ....
I went with the Radenso Pro-M based on his review.
It's really great out of the box and so compact; it has the best BSM filtering, including Acuras and Hondas, and has range very close to the R3. Really an old school radar that is very quiet. I have it on a Blendmount w/ mirror tap and it is very discrete in the cockpit.
I came from an Escort 360 and it was huge, very yappy and really not that great IMO, especially at its price-point. I also did not like how it stood out in the cockpit when paired with a Blendmount.
Posted a pic of the Radenso for reference.
