Escort MAX 360 MKII Radar and Laser Detector & Escort M2 Smart Dash Cam Bundle - 1080P Full HD Video, Extreme Range, False-Alert Filtering, WiFi, GPS Based, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Compatible

I am very pleased with this MAXcam 360c. I wanted a dashcam for my truck to be prepared for any insurance scam attempt or accident. Adding the M1 or M2 wasn't an option as my existing Escort Max II was not compatible. I came across this MAXcam 360c and thought I would upgrade my old MAX II that frankly alerted so often to false signals I rarely used it anymore and just relied on Waze to inform me of potential speed traps. I was hesitant because of the cost, and more so because of a lot of negative reviews about the Drive Smarter app, which seemed kind of key to realizing the full potential of this unit. I noted that a lot of those negative reviews were more than a year old, so I took the chance. Boy, am I glad I did.I have been running this MAXcam for a little over a week now and it has not picked up a single false signal. I run it in AutoLoK mode in the city/suburbs, and then Highway when otherwise. I disabled X band, and toggled on K, and Ka "super wide." I live in a very police heavy area and I am only getting alerted when there is a police car nearby running radar.I have not encountered many issues with the Drive Smarter app. It connects within 30 seconds and I can edit the settings easily, and the map works great. I've had it disconnect or be unable to connect to the unit once or twice in a week, and I simply close out the app and then restart it and everything works great. Is the Drive Smarter map as good as Waze or Google Maps? Of course not, and I doubt it ever will be. What would be amazing is if Escort struck a partnership deal with either Waze or Google to integrate their units with their map. I think they would completely own the radar detector market if they did this.But all in all, I am very pleased with this purchase and feel like I am well protected from a false insurance claim, as well as an overzealous state trooper.

Great radar detector.! The long range detection and arrows are awesome.

I love this radar detector. I'm coming from an Escort 9500IX, which was about 10 years old and gave me false alerts all the time since more and more cars now use radar for alerts, alarms, and self-driving. So I wanted something that was updated, gave me lots of options, and was easy to use. The Escort MAX 360c MKII Laser Radar Detector fits that description perfectly.So far nearly every time it's alerted me to active radar, I've seen law enforcement nearby. I'm sure there are sometimes when they're just very well hidden and I don't see them, but I haven't had a single obvious false alert yet. It used to be the case that I'd know if I was close to a Honda or Acura, but I don't have to worry about that any longer. No more false alerts, and I can be confident that it's picking up legitimate signals.I also like a lot of the different user options. I won't go into all of them here, but it's very robust in the amount of options you have in terms of detectable signals, when to alert you to overspeeding or other alerts, and display options. I do which I could remove the mph and speed limit readings, but to remove those it then gives you a voltage reading, which I care about even less than those. So there are a ton of options.I specifically got the WiFi option for easy updating, but updating seems to take over an hour over WiFi. So I would recommend updating this device using your PC since it'll only take a few minutes or so.I don't use the Drive Smarter app. To be honest, I find it an annoyingly subpar verison of Waze, which, in my opinion, is inferior to what Google Maps has become and Apple Maps hopes to be. I would much prefer if there was some way to integrate the reporting functionality of this app with Google Maps or another mapping app, as I just prefer the display options those apps have over Drive Smarter. But that's just personal preference.I want to make one other note, too: this radar detector is pretty hefty in terms of size. It's not overly huge, but it's way bigger than my 9500IX was. But what was really nice about this radar detector is the aesthetic. The display has several color options, and I really like the blue. The outer case of this one is a black/grey that fits in nicely with my interior, so that's nice, too.

DO NOT waste your money on this piece of garbage. Video quality is ok, but to get anything off this piece of junk, you sit in your car for 25 min (when it actually connects to the crappy app) and it fails almost every time to download a video. It disconnects from your phone, wifi and bluetooth are unstable and half the time the video freezes while trying to watch it, and the radar detector goes into parking mode. (Which powers it down and drops your connection.. guess what you have to start all over.) I bought this for its camera function. Dont waste your money. Great as far as a radar detector goes, it works perfect. But 300$ extra for this model to have video is a rip off. Dont make my mistake.!!
