Yes and No. Depends on what band you are talking about. On K and X the Bel and V1 have the same forward warning range and on Ka the Bel is marginally better. But the V1 is the best for a rear attack and has the directional arrows which I never really could fully appreciate until today. I would strongly recommend that you go to the V1 website and read the section called "Moments" it has customer testimonials that describe how the arrows made all the difference. You really need to read a bunch of them to understand. It is what clinched it for me and I bought the V1.

P.S. for guys who live in N.J. apparently X band is the standard as there is a State contract with a radar gun company. I was getting zapped by Ka from behind on my run this morning.
