    Escort Max ll HD Radar Detector

    • Beautiful unit ..... works great all around
    • Beautiful unit ..... works great all around
    • Purchased Max 2 and liked the radar features but the unit was very noisy and loose fitting to the windshield mount and would fall out on occasion
    • My unit split in Half the first month despite taking good care of it and never dropping on the Floor
    • Some reviewers have noted that, when mounted, the unit "shakes like crazy".
    • This is a very customizable unit and worth the money
    • The unit seems to vibrate a bit more than the old unit when driving, but this hasn't bothered me or prevented it from doing its job
    • While Escort has touted this unit as highly upgradable and they did do multiple updates to fix bugs and add a small amount of requests to the Max, the Max still has a long way to go regarding updating its firmware/software to continue to quiet the unit down from false alerts and to get features added multiple people have been asking for (more on this later).Conclusion
    • Requires pairing with cellphone to function fully (not a stand-alone unit capable of functioning on it's own).3
    • this unit works fine, but I thought I was getting radar live forever with this upgraded purchase
    • The unit seems to vibrate a bit more than the old unit when driving, but this hasn't bothered me or prevented it from doing its job
    • as for the radar itself maybe I just got a bad unit , in 8 hours on the road I passed maybe 15
    • Even placing it in the small region of the windshield that is created for this purpose (without a metal layer)... the unit will drive you nuts LOST GPS
    • I call the customer service line to find out where I should send this defective unit
    • Save some money and get a cheaper unit
    • I called Escort to see if I have a defective unit
    • Another annoyance is how quiet the unit is
    • For sure the unit works well for KA band
    • WHY on earth would I spend MORE money to fix a defective unit
    • Great unit after upgrading from the 9500ix
    • The unit is more sensitive than my 9500ix
    • This unit is impressive
    • Purchased Max 2 and liked the radar features but the unit was very noisy and loose fitting to the windshield mount and would fall out on occasion
    • Excellent unit!
    • unit was very effective for its use
    • Right out of the box this unit was great.
    • This unit is excellent but just wish it had directional
    • So, for me personally, spending the extra money to buy "top shelf" unit was a decision which took much thought and even some financial footwork to accomplish
    • overall a great unit that I highly recommend
    • Instead it has become more annoying that I have to turn on the App each time to work this unit properly
    • signs)- Use of iPhone app was optionalWith just under 24 hours of use, here is what I noticed:- Unit seems sturdy and I like the new magnetic
    • Pro's: Nice looking, solid unit and easy to use
    • I think this is a pretty riduculous overstatement and gives the impression that the unit moves around like a ping-pong ball on the windshield.
    • This unit, coupled with a free smart phone app is easy to use, really seems to do the job and provides a certain amount of peace of mind...
    • Very nice unit
    • I love this unit.
