why a R7? the V1Gen2 is proven better by Vortex. and the lack of BSM filtering by the R7 alone is reason not to get one for me. Im looking to pick one up to use until Radenso Theia comes out because as most here know Theia is going to change everything we know about Radar Detectors! Will also cost a lot.

How is the V1G2 “proven to be superior”? Borderline better range? Maybe less false alerts, but the R7 is pretty easy to configure to limit these. How about the fact a $500 detector that’s the first major upgrade in YEARS arrives with multiple displays peeling off and so many other failures (49 page thread just on issues with the V1G2 on rdforum)? Forcing your hand to use a separate phone app (which looks like it was built by a high schooler that just learned to build iOS apps) to get full benefit?
I owned a V1 for 15 years before purchasing both the R7 and V1G2. They’re both great detectors, but frankly the V1G2 actually false alerted for me more frequently, has an ugly display (weird purple when hit by the sun), and so many issues that I stuck with the R7. Still waiting on Valentine to respond to my emails to return the thing (thought they were supposed to have good customer service) from two weeks ago. I really wanted to like the V1G2, as I was a big V1 fan but ended up unimpressed. Not sure how Theia will revolutionize anything, seems overhyped, but I’ll be interested in trying it out. |

I have 2 R7s only thing I don't like is lack of laser versus V1G2 but on the other hand V1G2 doesn't work in our cars with laser on as gesture control interferes with it.

Ya the laser thing I've always found kinda useless. If it's picking it up you're supposed to already be effed anyway so I could care less about laser. I turned it off via the app on my gen1.

How about no gps on the V1 old or new. Unless you hook up to cell phone via Bluetooth which is a PIA. It was a money saver for Mike, that’s why. The R7 rejects many false alerts as well as any other detector and I’ve had many. Personally I like my R3 as it’s smaller and just about as good.
I run my R3 in my M5 and my R7 in my Raptor. My V1 version 1 and Radenso Pro M are collecting dust in a drawer. As for theia, I’ll believe it when I see it. |

2020 is their promise. I would suspect December for Christmas. I wasn't holding my breath either and upgraded to the V1Gen2. Which I'll run in the mean time. And I've never found the gps all that useful if the unit doesn't go off to begin with.

So got another v1g2(had to put tape on gesture ctrl sensor). It's quieter than r7 and the KA range seems better than r7. I think it's stays on the signal longer but r7 ramps up better and v1 stays steady on 1 or 2 bars and only goes high once at the source. I'm using it with v1 driver app on iOS so far and it has picked up ka band in some instances a sec or 2 earlier than r7. I'm gonna test it for another week or so to make the final decision if I'm gonna keep it or not as I am also waiting on Thea as well.
