I don’t like to do reviews, But, I cannot let this pass because I went to read some reviews before I invest this amount of money on a radar detector. I own this for a very short amount of time and all I can say is, it’s great it took a little longer to get to know the settings but it was only me. Anyway, this radar saved me for 3 citations already one was with the laser gun about 300ft away and the other 2 was cops on the hide out. All I can say is i paid the full price $750 plus I added the M1 camera. I am definitely very satisfied with the accuracy. I know it’s a lot of money but I feel kinda safe driving around. Just the fact that nowadays you must have some sort of protection and this radar and the cam it works great. The only issue I had with the camera was that I have to disable cellular on my phone to watch the camera because I use T-Mobile and it appears to be a problem. But again very happy with the radar and the camera. The only reason I added the camera here was because i bought it together the entire package. Def, recommend to you.

Let me start off by saying that before I bought this radar detector I did my research for months. I decided to go with the redline 360c. It is by far the best radar detector on the market. It has extreme long range.It picked up on a speed trap on a county busy road that was roughly 5 miles in front of us. It rarely has false alerts and it will lock out the same alerts that are not law enforcement on its own after driving by it enough times. I will say that this detector is only really great if you pay the 50.00 a year to escort to use their drive smart app along with the detector to really maximize its potential which I found out and is worth it but not needed to use this detector day to day. The app that escort has is awesome for adjusting all the settings on this detector and trust me there are a lot of settings that need to be adjusted to maximize this detector. There are some great videos out there of how to set it up depending on where you live and the types of bands used by law enforcement and placement which does really matter. I know it’s not cheap but it’s worth it. I have no regrets on buying this redline. At the end of the day of this detector saves you from one speeding ticket it has paid for itself. In my case I do tend to drive a bit fast from time to time and it has saved me twice in the last two months.

I have owned and operated the Redline 360c daily for over two years now. The detector is high end and delivers exactly what the product overview states. Long range detection, no false alerts, Wi-Fi connection for updating, and so on. I have also found that the detector and the Escort Live app promote safer driving practices by making the driver more aware of their immediate environment. The only issue that I’ve had with the detector occurred last week. The brightness of the screen at maximum decreased making it hard to see during the day. The unit is currently being repaired by the manufacturer for a fairly reasonable price because my warranty has expired.
I definitely recommend buying this product.

I bave been running an old 9500ix for over a decade. I now travel to big cities a lot and it would deive me insane with the false alerts. I played around with uniden R8 and the redline 360c. The redline 360c is probably the most quiet detector on the market when it comes to false alerts. It does fall behind the r8 in terms of lighting fast response. The decision to get this detector for me was based on 2 factors. The first was being quiet as I grew tired of false alerts. The second, my day to day drive is wide open flat roads with no bends so the slight decrease in lightning fast response isnt much of a factor. Also side note the redline when mounted with a blend mount looks drastically more aesthetically pleasing. This detector fits my needs, I encourage everyone to do some research and grab what fits theirs.

I love it, it tells you exactly where the cop is at from 2 miles away and if they get closer than the sound gets louder and trust me, you will not get pulled over when you hear it. Slow down I drive super fast with it and I thank God never got pulled over. Yes it is a bit pricey but I promise you it’s way worth your money. Think about you getting pulled over two times. That’s the same of the price very worth it

This radar works excellent I’ve had 2 exact same ones in the past (first one had for a year and got stolen by tow truck company) 2nd one lasted me 2 years n half before a friend stole it… but throughout the time period of having them it’s been great would not prefer ANY OTHER radar. I started off with a whistler from AutoZone 6 years ago so we’ve come a long way radar wise. It’s definitely pricey but worth it. Suction cup on my 2nd one barely started not working before my friend had stole it. THIS IS MY 3rd escort max 360 redline and I love it.

Thank you so much for the outstanding review and for choosing Escort! If your mount starts to lose its suction, you can restore the adhesive by running it under warm water, removing any dirt or debris, and leaving it out to air dry. Drive safely and enjoy!

Good performance seen so far. I previously have an Escort 9500ix which I’d used and loved for years, but with all of the blind spot monitor equipped vehicles in the road these days, it had become useless with constant falses. Enter the Redline 360c. GREATLY diminished BSM falses. Seems like the early issues have been ironed out as I have no complaints about laggy arrows etc.
The auto GPS lockout pushed this one to the top for me. I know the R7 has been promising this for quite some time but that remains to be seen.
Loving this detector so far!

This is one of my favorite radar to use besides the uniden r7. Cant go wrong with either of them. Difference is the escort updates by itself with wifi, and uniden is manual update. But both are great radars for your money.

Radar didnt alert-got a ticket - Escort wont pay

Wow, I really don't know how to frame this review. I didn't want to give this only one star because I have to believe it's better than that. But from my personal experience, that's the best I can give. I'll first start with what I like:
- solid hardware. The radar seems well built, feels sturdy, and looks good.
- decent software but kinda buggy. I downloaded Escort Live and was able to connect bluetooth and do most things but could not connect to wifi to do firmware upgrade. I decided to try Drive Smarter app in which I was able to connect via BT and wifi. So I ended up doing the firmware upgrade using Drive Smarter app (which took forever). In any case, weird how you can connect to wifi using one app - Drive Smarter - but could not connect with Escort Live, which was what the bar code in the quick set up manual led to.
Fail 1. So here is where it all falls apart. I was driving in Arizona on highway 10 and bam! Got a ticket! (see photo upload) I get it, it's laser and usually it's too late once you've been tagged. But what was really disappointing was that the laser alert didn't go off at all even though I configured it to alert me on laser. Now I'm always second guessing if this thing is working properly or not. Products like these, you don't want to be second guessing.
Fail 2. So Escort says that they will pay for your ticket if you get a ticket while using the radar. Ok, sounds great. I went online and submitted my ticket and uploaded everything they asked. But...it only applies if you buy it directly from Escort's website and not Best Buy. (see my photo upload). So in the end, I got it ticket, the device never alerted me, and Escort won't pay for your ticket if you buy at Best Buy.
Maybe it's time to return this thing and get a Uniden. Or maybe I should drive speed limit...nah!!

We're sorry to hear that you are not happy with your experience with Redline 360c. Be aware that unlike radar, laser is difficult to detect in advance. Also, because laser uses a narrow laser beam which they aim at your headlights or front plate, if your detector is mounted high then it may not receive the laser beam to alert at all. Mount the detector lower on your windshield for better laser detection performance. For further assistance, contact us at 800-543-1608 M-F 9:00AM-5PM EST. Live Chat is available 10:00 AM-4:45 PM Eastern Time M-F. Look for the chat icon at the lower bottom right side of the Escort Radar web pages.

I used to use the older Redline for my sport bike and car. It's range was unparalleled & perfect for rural riding/driving. I used to salivate over the V1's arrows though. Fast forward..bought a V1g2 a few months ago. Love the new design however I'd more falses in town. This w/the latest updates. Sold it to a friend & bought the new Redline 360c. It's $$$, but if you're going to spend the money, spend it well and you can't go wrong with this model. It's worked GREAT right out of the box and it has arrows! Mounted with Blendmount for a seamless look & ease of use.

Honestly this thing is amazing. I know cops are there so long before I even get near them. Picks up lasers great, if you like to step on it this thing is a lifesaver. Super easy to mount and has a lot of neat little options. I have an orange interior so being able to color match the display was a nice touch. I normally don’t leave reviews but this thing lets me know I’m safe doing 160. If you’re on the fence about spending a little extra for this radar detector just do it, you’ll be happy you did. No tickets cause this thing has me covered. 10/10

I used both the Uniden r8 and thr RL 360c. The brand Escort is owned my Cedar Electronics and they are notorious for very slow uodates as well as their customer service. However, i will be as objectice as pososble. The 360c is one of the best radar detectors om the market as its the only RD that is not picked uo by Radar Detector Dedectors. It also has amazing range. Its algorithm was developed to recieve various radar, screen it, then determine if the detector should go full tilt with all alarms or mid tilt. It used GPS learning to detemrine if the k band is from a automatic doors at a local building or is it a real threat. So, its much more quiet than the r8. On the downside, the rime it takes the RD to process the information crestes a longer latency than most RD on the market. The arrows on thr 360c can take several seconds. CE did finally push new FW however certain issues still remain.
