Digital camera reviews of Whistler XTR-330 Laser/Radar Detector with Patented POP Mode Detection
Digital camera Review: Pretty good detector for the price; Customer Service is Excellent!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought one of these off eBay a few months ago. I was having problems with it alerting to X band then immediately alerting Laser non-stop. [...]. He works for Whistler & said to send it in for a checkup at no cost. I did, and they check it out, tweaked it, and it's been excellent ever since.
How's that for customer service?! No receipt required, nothing, but they still support their equipment no matter what. You can't get much better than that. So customer service is a huge selling factor for Whistler.
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I know it's not a high-end radar detector. It works, but I know it doesn't give the greatest detection (range). I get a lot of falses from surrounding radar detectors (Cobras=junk!), but nothing I can't live with.
I would recommend this detector to anyone who wants a decent detector for a good price with excellent customer service.

I am not 1 for long reviews so will keep it short
This thing has saved me from 3 tickets now, has about 1 mile roughly of detection (1 of tickets saved by the detector was a good mile or more down the road)
it does pick up the automatic door openers on Highway mode, change to City and then its almost only actual radar guns also it picks up other crap detectors that do not have leak protection (as you drive past someone it will go off at a 2 to 3 sig strength then stop lol)
it is sensitive enough to alert to signals around a corner ahead which is a good plus
The Laser detector is perfect, works great, 1 suggestion i do have is mount the device near the bottom of your windshield in the center since Laser gun fields are only a foot or 2 by the time it hits you car and its pointed at your bumper so having up top it will not pick it up, also if you are hit by laser... as the instruction manual says (LOL) "you will not be able to stop in time since it gets a reading in just over 1-2 seconds, when the alert sounds adjust your driving... change lanes :)
overall i am happy, it has made its money back and works like a charm - great buy for the money, always loved Whistler
1 more time - mount it near the bottom of the windshield in the center for the best detection.
Digital camera Review: Save Money With This Gem
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this little gem and am I glad I did. It has saved me many times the purchase price. It has good range and has picked up every car I have been able to spot. The fuzz is getting smarter so don't think that is a false warning they have just shut it off for a bit. :)Digital camera Review: Splendid

I have never had a radar detector beffore but, I just got my whistler and I hooked it up. It took less than 5 minutes literally. Then I was off to the YMCA and going down a hill in my area, Boom! beeping, blinking, voice alert it was great! And then... no cop... all the way down the mile long hill. I thought maybe it was just X band waves bouncing around but nope, it said "Ka" so I got to the bottom of the hill and sitting in the parking lot right at the bottom was a cop pointing a radar at the road. HECK YES! Good range, I always speed down that hill to save my breaks a little and this thing just saved me. Definately a good buy for the money.dDigital camera Review: The radar is perfect for college students who trvel like me
