Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Escort Passport 9500i Radar and Laser Detector
Customer Review: Very Expennsive and Very Lousy Performance!
Summary: 1 Stars
Got this radar detector and had high hopes for it because of the GPS and anti false alarm sensitivity.
Unfortunately in my first week I got a nasty speeding ticket. The officer had a laser gun and it didn't warn me until it was right in front of me. With this kind of protection who needs protection at all?
Sure the slim unit looks great, and I like the talking radar but at the end of the day don't you buy this to avoid tickets? My friend swears by his Valentine, which looks ugly, but really who cares about the looks of a radar detector.
Customer Review: what a life saver
Summary: 4 Stars
I just bought a new car. It is much different than my old s-10. I'm heading up north and all the sudden my radar detector goes off and I see that I'm cruising along at 90+ mph!!! With the superior detection systems and excellent range I was able to slow down to posted speed without any trouble. It was even better after I found out about Michigan's Driver Irresponsiblity fines. It just paid for itself!!! I was so impressed that I bought on for my Mom for Mother's Day.
Customer Review: Lives up to the hype
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought the 9500 to replace an older Whistler. The old one was OK, did not give a ton of warning a lot of the time. Totally untrue of the 9500. Great range. I adore the lockout feature. That damn gas station where the cop hides out no longer forces me to alter my pace unless he is there. It also does a remarkable job picking up scattered laser shots. Saved my bacon once already. Only knock is that it usually takes a block or 2 to pick up the GPS signal.Customer Review: Great detector, but beware!!!!

The features on this detector are very nice, I find it very sensitive and and handy for remebering the many locations of speed traps, red light/speed cams, and what not. Only draw backs include 1) placement is slightly limited due to the GPS function because the whole unit must be under glass for it to work properly, and 2) I have actually purchased two of these now because it is apparently a hot ticket item for thieves as well :(Customer Review: Great product

I think Escort has done a great job with this detector. They are using cutting edge technology to bring us the consumers the latest and greatest. Nothing is ever going to be full proof, but the 9500i does a pretty darn good job. The GPS is a very cool feature and it is very easy to operate. I would recommend this detector to anyone I know! I think it's the best money can buy period.
