The ratings are truly overrated. The distance that this thing actully picks up a signal is after i notice the cop with my own eyes. Sad

I got this around 6 months ago and it has already saved me some 4-5 tickets easily. I am a bit of a dasher, especially on the freeways. And I have been warned of police radars by this detector, well before it was too late. Awesome piece of equipment.
What's great about it: Few false detects, Prompt radar and laser detects
What's not so great: None
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy set up, easy to use. Has a mute button on the plug so I don't have to reach for the detector to hit mute. Picks up radar at a far distance.
What's great about it: Easy to use, like the mute button on the plug.
What's not so great: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good detector for the money , great range but I really miss the voice alert on my old Beltronics. When it spoke the type of radar it detected never had to take your eyes off the road. The display is a little hard to read and the tones are not distinct enough. If I had it to do over I would buy another Beltronics.

What's great about it: Good price , good detection range
What's not so great: display to small and tones not distinct enough

The Passport 8500 X50 is a great radar detector. If you have a heavy foot it is worth every nickel. It will pay for itself very quickly as high a tickets are!!

I had the earlier model and it is a great radar to use. I have never gotten a ticket. I actually do not drive very fast but I use it to prevent from getting traffic tickets in case I accidentally go over the speed limit even if I do not intend to drive very fast. This new model has greater range than the older model so it will be better than the older one. I like to drive with the police radar detector on.
