Cobra XRS 9965 15 Band Radar and Laser Detector Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just upgraded to the 9965 from the 9950. With the touch screen I have notices the screen display is not as bright and crisp as the older model 9950. Also with the sun coming in over the front of the car you can not read the screen at all, it gets washed out. You will need to rely on the voice and tone alerts. The screen should have been made with better shielding to block the sun out. The other reason I like the older model is that the 9950 had an electronic compass the new one you need to purchase the 9970 with the gps locator to get the compass. Really miss having the compass. Should not have been taken out. When you look at the screen you have a blank center where the compass used to be. Would recommend going back to the 9950 or purchase the xrs9945. Hope this helps everyone when considering purchasing the new touch screen cobra radar detector.
