Cobra IRadar for Android phones.

[Skyraider71]

I'm a longtime radar detector user (I likes ta haul ass ).
Has anyone tried this Blue tooth radar detector for Android?

Here's a review from PC Mag. Based on the review, I'm not impressed.

Cobra iRadar iRAD-105 (for Android) Review

Cobra iRadar iRAD-105 (for Android) Review & Rating | PCMag.comSeems a bit redundant... why use a phone as an interface for a radar detector? It's not like you mount the detector remotely in the grill or something like that you still stick it on the dash or windshield. I don't see the advantage other than running the battery down on the phone.

Heard from a couple of iphone owners having linking issues with it. Not sure if it's any better with the Android version. Frankly I prefer my good and reliable Beltronics GX 65. No issues whatsoever. :happy3:

Redundant...That about sums it up. Might as well just buy a good one and call it a day.

Save for a Valentine 1. I've been a V1 user for many years. Between the exceptional range, and directional arrows, there's nothing better for the open road.

Mines mounted remotely and I cut in a custom display right into my dash. If it wasnt worth it, I wouldn't have done it.

I would save your money, unless the cops in your cities don't have the new laser detectors. They can pop you real quick from so far away your detector does not even have time to pick it up.

Plus cops hate people with detectors and those license plate covers, gives them more of a reason to try and find probably cause to pull you over.
