I'm not sure this is something for people who want to speed and avoid cameras/lasers etc, but it is for someone who wants to drive within the speed limit and wants to avoid getting caught out on the odd, unlucky occasion he has crept above the limit.There is a real benefit, in my view, for buying a single or dual function device rather than one which attempts to d everything. This unit has a large display which allows you to clock the information using peripheral vision, or very slight movement, and since the information is mainly only the current speed limit plus your current speed it is easy to keep tabs on. The centre circle activates when a trap is coming up.The visual and audible warnings are about as good as they can be,

My old Tom Tom sat nav clearly displayed the road speed limit and alerted if over seed limit. This stopped working, and new car (Ford) has build in sat nav, however speed limit display is tiny and no over speed warning option. So I bought this.Positives+ Current speed and speed limit are clearly displayed, as I wanted.+ Good range of alert options (when speed limit changes, when over speed)+ If power is hard wired and switched with the ignition, device switches on automatically when power is applied and switches off 20s after power switched off (unless warning message on screen is responded to).Negatives- Bracket is huge, and on mine the plastic had stress marks- Misleading advertising,

So far so good. Picks up most cameras but does miss mobile sites. There's two on my way to work in Birmingham, mobile that is, and it's missed them both. One big disadvantage is I can't figure out how to input user sites or if it can be done at all so it loses a star for that. I've had many GPS camera detectors over the years. The best one by far was a POGO alert, unfortunately they aren't doing updates anymore so I moved to this snooper. Very good price and good display. The road speed limit often shows the wrong speed limit for the road you're on but still a good ideaand the speed indicator when moving through SPECS cameras just shows my speed, not my average speed so that could be better.

I’ve been reviewing the various speed camera detectors currently on the market and short listed the Snooper My-Speed XL and the Snooper 4Zero Elite BT. After much deliberation I decided to go for the Snooper My-Speed XL. Price was a factor although the Snooper 4Zero Elite BT looks to be a more technical device and offers more configurable functionality.However, I’m very pleased with the Snooper My-Speed XL, the software download took no time at all and was very easy to setup. The unit works as designed, the audible bleep when warning you of the different road speeds is a good feature. The speed camera detection worked perfectly,

Good quality mount and the free updates work well (if you register) its not 100% and does pick up some historic sites but better this than points. It did pick up a mobile zone for me yesterday potentially saving me had I been over the limit on the A38. as the porcus mobilius van was on a flyover bridge. Audible alarm is loud and continuous to the point of annoying and hard to ignore which is how I need it to be. Overall its a great little device, internal battery good for about 2 hours and car charger supplied.

Bought in response for my partner, after she got a few speeding tickets. Her new car has built in satnav, but no speed limit information, so we didn't want another satnav in the car. This is a brilliant solution to factory fitted satnavs which don't advise you on speed limits.Great investment, compared to fines and loosing your license!Only one problem with a software fault, but cannot fault the manufacturer; very helpful over the phone, and sent a new pre-programmed memory card out to us.

Very accurate speed assessment. The only small disappointments are that the voice warnings are not very clear and become quite distorted when turned up - and the maximum volume is very quiet. Also whilst the device is locking on to satellites it gives all sorts of erroneous readings which set off the alarm. Otherwise it is an excellent device for warning when I am exceeding the speed limit and where there are cameras.

I'm very pleased with my purchase once you have registered the device on the snooper site you have unlimited access to all types of cameras throughout England and Europe. Good notification time before the cameras so enough time to adjust your speed. Definitely recommend and might just possibly save you £100 and 3 points

Good gadjet. Must remberspeed shown is about 4mph slower than you are really doing, same as google and most GPS devices, Picks up nearlly all fixed cameras providing you keep it up to date and warns of regular mobile trap areas. Does not last long if not plugged in. At this price way better than a speeding ticket

What can I say, almost perfect. Does exactly what it says on the box.There are quite a few missing speed limits but as they all come from a database it's not Snooper's fault.Batteries last quite a while and I can't agree with the negative comments from many dissatisfied customers.

Works in UK and France, can be a little temperamental and needs non tinted screens to work perfectly. Change of limit sound can be a little irritating but can also be muted (not audible warning though then) so change the sound please to make this 5 star product.

Firstly I found it impossible to download information from disc but I am a tecknofobe. Rang up tech support who were brilliant and talked me through the set up, step by step. It works brilliantly and even shows you the name of road your on and compas direction.

This is a good product, it performs its job very well, but my enthusiasm was lowered because I found it difficult to download the software. I cannot understand why the item, at almost £100.00, could not be supplied already loaded and ready to go.
