10 best signature radar detectors

The main drawback of the classic radar detector is the frequent false positives. The device responds easily not only to police speed meters, but also to interferences caused by various sources of electromagnetic radiation: road traffic sensors for cars, cruise controllers of neighboring cars, power lines, etc. As a result, in urban conditions, the driver receives almost continuous alarms . Signature antiradar is much more convenient in operation. When scanning signals, they compare each of them with a signature, that is, a set of characteristics that are individual for each type of radiator. The more such characteristics are stored in the device's memory, the more effectively it identifies the source and the less often it works for non-targeted reasons. The principle of operation is simple, but how well is it implemented by manufacturers? To understand, let's study the rating of the best radar detectors with a signature module.

Top 10 best signature radar detectors

10 Inspector RD GTS

The Inspector company definitely won over its competitors by offering such an affordable and at the same time functional device as the RD GTS. Oddly enough, there are few reviews on it, but discussions on automobile forums are hot. Supporters of the device, which include, among other things, the editorial staff of Za Rulem magazine, point to the successful introduction of signature technology, neat design and good sensitivity in the “Track” mode, tested in a practical way. "Hayter" do not like the lack of brightness of the display, the lack of a speed limit function and auto-change modes.

Truth, as always, is in the middle. Indeed, the "Inspector" with the included signature and in IQ mode works imperfectly and does not protect 100% of false positives. But, first, the manufacturer is not a one-time, it does not abandon its offspring, and very quickly releases new firmware, in which it eliminates most of the bugs. Secondly, the device has a lot of other advantages: here there is an alert volume, which is sufficient even when the car stereo is on, and the display is very informative, and the GPS is fast. In general, the model clearly has a bright future.

9 SUPRA DRS-SG151V

As we understood from the reviews, the SUPRA DRS-SG151V radar detector is usually bought by those who are tired of the continuous response of their devices to various interferences, but they doubted the effectiveness of signature analysis. But after the purchase of fans from the "signatures" is clearly added. Despite the cheapness, the device qualitatively eliminates the useless signals and reports only stationary and mobile speed meters.As a result, the driver of the vehicle gets to the destination on time and without unnecessary hassle, and the number of fines received tends to zero.

The company's engineers made sure that the gadget could perform its functions in all climatic zones of Russia, adapting it to the operating temperature range of –50 ° C. Moisture resistant compound and thermosbalanced wiring of the board protects it in difficult operating conditions. A strong plastic case is responsible for mechanical strength, and high-precision mounting of board elements is responsible for vibration resistance. To sum up, the “Supre” in the Russian version is not terrible either cold or heat or shaking. And the device broadcasts exclusively in a male voice - some married men and, of course, women are very happy about this.

8 Digma SafeDrive T-1000 Signature

Digma Company is far from new to the production of accessories for cars. It has been on the Russian market since 2005, and since that time it has only strengthened its position by placing more than 160 service centers throughout the territory of the Russian Federation. In 2018, its range was replenished with another item that immediately attracted consumer interest - the SafeDrive T-1000 Signature model. First of all, its not dull design is striking: on the top cover the matte surface is advantageously combined with glossy, and the latter, contrary to expectations, does not collect fingerprints at all.

The device does not require a lot of settings and works on the principle of "turned on and went." The main thing is to choose the appropriate mode. There are only 5 of them, three of which the manufacturer suggests using in the city, one on the highway, and one when you want the program to switch. Users have no complaints about the operation of the device, on the contrary, they note that the gadget does not raise false alarms, and it catches speed fixers, including low-power ones, perfectly. Inexpensive and functional - what else do you need from a anti-radar with a signature library?

7 Neoline X-COP 7500S

In terms of detection range, this model is comparable to premium-class radar detectors - so, in any case, users say. Some of them bother to shoot videos, as a car gadget successfully opposes the so-called. "Quiet" radar - "Skatu" and "Arena", and directed in the back. When the first warning comes, the radar complex is often located within 500-700 m, and there is enough time to reset the speed. In addition, the detector names the type of camera and the maximum allowable speed at a particular site.

Turbo mode is especially sensitive, so it’s better not to activate it in the city. For urban conditions, the automatic X-COP settings are optimal, which, at a speed below 40 km / h, will turn off voice alerts, while driving from 40 to 70 km / h will turn on signature mode, and over 70 will increase sensitivity to police radars. Completion of the model is quite scarce. For example, from fastenings the bracket with vacuum suckers is provided only. Slightly looking at the design, you can understand the reason: the device’s speaker is located below, so it’s better to install it on the windshield, closer to the ceiling. The assembly was carried out on the conscience, the details of the body when moving cars do not rattle. Excellent device, if only a little cheaper cost.

6 Playme QUICK 2

This model was highly appreciated even by those car owners who had used more expensive anti-radar before. They note that, thanks to the noise filtering system, false positives almost never happen. At the same time, the device guards against troubles in the form of fines: on the highway and in the city it works well in advance.He displays notifications on a monochrome OLED-screen and clearly duplicates it in a female voice, thereby allowing enough time to adjust the speed limit. Especially high protection against interference is provided in the "Megapolis" mode.

The design of the radar detector can also be called successful - it looks great both in the representative “Tuareg” and in the budget “Focus”. There are 2 mounting options: on the windshield of the car, where its compact dimensions do not completely obscure the view, or on the front panel. The kit for both provided holders - bracket with suction cups and anti-slip mat. The device setup is intuitive, experts call the database one of the most complete, and it is updated in a timely manner, there were no problems or failures during testing and operation.

5 SHO-ME G-1000 Signature

Externally, the "radarik" (as it was affectionately called in reviews) from the well-known Korean company SHO-ME looks compact and neat. The monochrome display is protected from the sun's rays with a visor and is perfectly visible to the driver. Interaction with the device is carried out through 4 buttons, which will be easy to understand. The settings offer several current modes of operation, it is possible to disable individual ranges and cameras, set the range of the alert.

For devices with a signature module, timely updating of signatures is very important, and the company approaches this issue very responsibly. Firmware is updated about 3-4 times a month, customers can learn about updating by subscribing to the newsletter, and the process itself does not require special knowledge. In addition, the site visitors can leave information about the change in the position of stationary radars and cameras, based on which developers will quickly edit the database. Other advantages of the model include effective noise filtering and detection of complex systems, and disadvantages include the inability to update data from a flash card, as was the case with non-SHO-ME devices.

4 Neoline X-COP S300

At first glance, this model is unreasonably expensive, but the only device that has similar functionality is made by a Canadian company and costs at least 15,000 rubles. expensive. It is characterized by an unusual form factor in the form of 4 separated blocks: a switch, a radar module, an OLED display, and an external GPS antenna. All parts of the complex, except for the miniature display, are installed in the engine compartment. This configuration is the best solution for cars with athermal windshield, which, as you know, creates a strong radio barrier. In addition, there are no extra wires and gadgets inside the car.

The device performs the detection according to the classical algorithm — through a catcher of radar signals and a GPS module, and then compares the data with the contents of its memory. It contains the signatures of police radars from 45 countries, so the models are preferred by autotravelers. However, when traveling to another country, it is important to remember that in many of them radar detectors are prohibited, and therefore subject to seizure and even destruction. Owners of the Neoline X-COP S300 have virtually no such trouble (although it is better not to violate foreign law), since the Spectrum definition systems only see them closely when they come close.

3 PlayMe Silent 2

Another new 2018! Instead of a 2-line indicator, a full 1.3-inch display is built into this model. It displays data on active ranges, speed cameras, distance to the object and the existing speed limit. The location of the 4 mechanical buttons and the polygonal lines of the body are associated with the shapes of a sports car.At the same time, quite compact dimensions and black color make it possible to arrange it in the car so that it is inconspicuous from the outside. For this, the kit offers 2 options of fasteners - non-slip mat and L-shaped holder.

Signal processing of the signal provides a high-speed digital DSP processor. The database contains samples of practically all police radars known in Russia, such as Avtouragan, Amata, Binar, Kordon, etc. There are also signatures of automobile sensors for dead zones that confuse conventional radar detectors. Additional information support is provided by the GPS receiver. Thus, the positioning of the device as the flagship of the line is fully justified by its functionality and performance.

2 SilverStone F1 Monaco S

Monaco S signature radar detector receives excellent marks from users for the quality of the GPS-base and the base of stationary cameras. When GPS is turned on, it detects the joyless fixation complexes of the Avtodoria and Avtouragan type, as if it is dealing with the Strelka of the previous version. He is loved by truckers, since the control cameras of heavy vehicles of the Plato system are included in the memory of the device. The gadget also confidently wins the duel with radar-emitters, raising the alarm another kilometer before the radar, and 800 meters recognizing the “handwriting” of each of them.

Warn about several cameras in series located at a distance of less than 300 m from each other, the device also knows how. Occasionally he may be mistaken in reacting in the K-band to a nonexistent speedometer. It is necessary to make a discount on the fact that single false positives occurred within the precincts of Moscow, where the other anti-radar detectors simply become hysterical. A slightly more serious flaw, which is complained about in almost every second review is the excessive “gab” of the device, but it is eliminated by flashing the voice package when updating. But the information content of the display is excellent, and the data is read in any light and from any viewing angle. No wonder the magazine "At the wheel" called this model the best of 5 very worthy competitors.

1 TOMAHAWK Navajo S

As conceived by the manufacturer, the name of this car gadget should be associated with customers with Navajo Indians and their accuracy tomahawks throwing. Car owners almost unanimously recognize - on the road, the device accurately reveals road radars, detecting radars at a decent distance: aimed at the forehead - from 300 m, in the back - from 50. Signature part, according to their reviews, works flawlessly. Signature and GPS bases via microUSB (included) must be regularly updated via the official website. You can also make updates manually by adding useful data for yourself.

In addition to the USB cable, the radar detector includes charging from the vehicle's cigarette lighter, a holder on the windshield with suction cups, a sticky mat, double-sided contact tape, instructions, and a warranty card. By the way, the decision to install the device on the torpedo using velcro was quite original, but the drivers liked it. Initially, you need to get used to navigation, but a lot of settings make the device very enjoyable: you can adjust the threshold of the response speed, alert type, distance of the GPS alert, etc. "Buns" they are too insignificant.
