High Dollar Junk (

Please do not be fooled by the high dollar look of this unit! All Cobra detectors are full of software glitches. I started with the older 9550 model and it had so many glitches in it that Cobra kindly upgraded me to the 9870. But guess what. This "new and improved" unit is based off of the same old junk. It uses much of the same software and has many of the same problems. Some problems include loss of "stay set memory", changes in brightness level without command, inoperative "smart power". As far as detection goes, this unit is very lacking. Many times I can see the cop, using constant radar, before this unit does. It constantly falses Ka and VG-2/Spectere/POP (if selected on). The only good thing about this unit is that it is plenty loud. If you dare purchase a cobra, I am sure you will be very dissastisfied and will want to return it. Cobra customer service will be glad to swap you out with a new one with the same poblems. Buyer beware!!
