Looked into the Radar jammers but there are illegal here in Texas if I'm not mistaken.
Way fewer false alarms and location detection. For instance the Valentine 1 will let you know the second you have passed the police radar by flashing the down arrow. It flashes the up arrow when you're coming up on it. The accuracy is uncanny.
Also, my V1 has picked up lazer from a trailing vehicle at least once, a BMW a few cars in front of me with no radar decided to floor it. The trooper pulled out from behind me and had him pulled over about a mile down the road. No $100 detector will ever pull that off.
