I just bought my V1 two weeks ago. Amazing detector, and far superior to any I've owned previously, which has been six or seven units.
I chose the V1 because:
1. The arrows. They really do inform you as to what's setting it off, where it's located, and if you've passed it or not.
2. Multiple Bogies indicator. With the V1, I know that there are 4 threats on three bands, for example. Really helpful.
3. It's upgradeable. Mike is dedicated to keeping existing units on the market up to date if the owner wants to pay a small fee to make it the latest and greatest they sell.
4. The concealed display you can buy with it makes the thing invisible to tailgaters and cops riding behind you.
5. It's programmable. You can turn off X band if you don't live in one of two states that still use it and don't care about being notified that every Walmart has automatic doors that use the X band frequency.
My only gripe is I can't find a good chest-level spot for the concealed display in our cars, but that's not the fault of the detector.
I've heard the X50 is a great unit as well, but it doesn't have the arrows nor does it have the remote display option if I'm not mistaken. Could be wrong on that.
Anyway, I decided to take V1 up on their 30 day money back guarantee for my looooong road trip this week and I'll come back to this thread and give you a report as to how well it held up on a long road trip with rural cops, city cops, highway patrol, etc.
I recommend you do the same. Buy one at a time or both and try them out and send the one back that you don't like. You gotta love those MBG's!
