Only better if it were remotely installed
I bought the blue display and you should too Unless you want to advertise to all police and other drivers that you are using a radar detector (at night especially). I love everything about the BEL RX65, especially the voice alert and options, not to mention the range is the best you can get! Only one complaint, it is not remotely mounted and if you get pulled over by the cops with the detector they will definitely throw the book at you! Cops hate people who use radar detectors even if they don't use them to speed. Advantage is to be able to move the detector from one car to another and the price is better too.
Otherwise if you plan on keeping your car for a very long time and can afford it, spend the extra on a remote (but forget the laser, at least where I live, you really don't need it).
All in all I highly recommend the BEL RX65!

mediocre performance and false laser alerts in sunlight
I have used a Valentine unit for years and been very happy with its performance but needing a unit for a second car decided to opt for the much cheaper Beltronics RX65 radar detector. I found that in terms of Ka band detection it was mediocre at best and provided about 1/3 the distance that the Valentine provides at various speed metering locations in the area.
Worse though is the units false laser alerts that go on continuously whenever I drive toward the sun early or late in the day - i.e. commute hours. The only fix is to turn the unit off.
This is really a terrible value and a waste of money.
