I have recently been researching radar detectors and have come down to what is considered the top 3. I am doing this for several reasons:

1. So that those who don't know about this are informed
2. Those who know about this can voice out what they think is the best
and
3. So that we could probably discuss what the overal best is based on what we learn here, have read before, etc.

There are several websites that I have been looking at such as:

http://www.radartest.com
http://www.radarbusters.com

The three contenders are the: Valentine 1(which I favor in a way), Escort 8500 X50, and the Bell RX65.

Here are illustraions for them:

Valentine 1

Escort 8500 X50

Bell RX65

So those of you who may know about these three please select which one of the three you like. There is an option for other incase some of you might not agree that these 3 are good and there are other good/better ones

Note It should be noted that Bell and Escort are not the same company. Some of the reviews suggest that these two are almost identical if not the same.
