Clearing Up Some Cobra XRS-9970G / XRS-9965 Confusion

9970G7_2.jpgWe've had several customers who purchased a Cobra XRS-9970G radar detector call or write us, a little confused once they received their order. The problem? They thought that they were shipped a Cobra XRS-9965 by mistake. The confusion is due to the way Cobra is labeling the products. The Cobra XRS-9970G radar detector is packaged in a nice box that is clearly labeled "XRS-9970G", but the radar detector itself is actually an XRS-9965. The only difference between a Cobra 9965 and a Cobra 9970G is that the 9970G also includes a GPS attachment. This GPS plugs into the side of the detector and enables quite a bit of additional functionality, such as alerts for red light and speed cameras.

9970G_38_inset.jpgTo recap, don't be alarmed when you open your XRS-9970G box and find an XRS-9965. This is certainly confusing, but is normal. You're paying the additional $90 or so for the included GPS accessory and the functionality that it provides. If you don't need the GPS functions and just want a detector with a nice touch screen display, save some money and just purchase the Cobra XRS-9965 instead.
