Whistler XTR-695 Radar Detector

I've owned the XTR-695 for 2 years, used it with my car and motorcycle. Got the same one for my parents, and haven't had a speeding ticket since.
The color-coding of the different bands really comes in handy because the text alone can be hard to read in certain light conditions, especially on a bike. The LED periscopes are also great for the same reason. If there's a cop around, you will know.
Compared to any of the lower-end Cobras, the XTR-695 picks up a signal from a much greater distance, giving you plenty of awareness time.
It also has well-known radar frequencies pre-programmed in it, and it displays the actual frequency instead of just "K-band" or "Ka-band", reducing the chance of a false alarm even further.
I have no complaints about this radar whatsoever.

I use it for 3wks now and like it for price i paid.
it's not high price radar detector i really want to but work like one.
(my friend has 9500ix and we put together to compare it)
it detect almost same as 9500ix but here is 2 cons.
1.poor display during daylight
2.too much false alarm.
but i already knew it befor i get it.
and you can adjust some false signals by set filter and city mode.

overall this is a good detector for the price, but i've received a lot of false alarms so far. i haven't had it long enough to decide if there is a reason for the false alarms, but as of now i have none. When i cop does show up it alerts very well though and is definitely easy on the pocket compared to other detectors.

For the money this is one of the best radar detectors I've ever owned. I used to like Whistler than kind of lost interest in them and was more partial to Uniden and Bell, but this little beauty for the money is as good as any detector on the market that cost a ton more. If you're looking for an economical radar detector, that works great, with tons of extras, look no further. You found it!

The Whistler XTR-695 performs as expected. I did alot of comparing before I bought this detector. I have always used Cobra radar detectors but the reviews on the Whistler where higher. I must says I am happy with it's performance. It has already saved me from several tickets. I would recommend it, but just keep in mind that it is not fool proof.
