Escort Solo S2 - The King of Cordless Detectors

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: The Escort Solo S2 deems itself to be the top dog in the cordless market.
Review: I have previously written a review on the Escort Solo S2 and it got moved to a different category, plus I was less experienced then so found my review to be very unsatisfactory. Times have changed, and I've decided to try this incredibly popular and...

"Solo" in the Game of Cordless

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2005
The Bottom Line: One of the Best Cordless models, best used in travels when no cigarette lighter work in the Rent a Car
Review: Escort, after years of trying to get a Cordless model to operate efficiently, finally aspired to having a Highly workable Cordless unit.

Since the Technology merger with Beltronics years ago, Escort has been producing Top contending models...

Good basic detector but lacking in critical areas

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: This detector would get a higher rating if it performed as well with photo as it does with conventional radar threats. For less money, the Passport does a better job.
Review: The Solo S2 is a good, tough, reliable radar detector which keeps false alarms to a minimum and provides good versatility and performance on X, K and Ka radar bands. Distance seems to be equal to or better than a corded Bel model with fewer false...

Never alone with this Solo S2!

Date of Review:  Jan 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: Solo S2 is yet another impressive gem from Escort?s long line of premium detectors. Smart and reliable for a cordless model; its performance rivals the best of the corded bunch.
Review: I'll admit it...I'm often guilty of coveting thy electronic store's new things. Even if I already have a fairly new gadget I like and use, I'm green with envy about a new product I wasn't warned about that's much cooler and much better than the...

Convenient - But Lacking In Many Ways

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2004
The Bottom Line: Convenient, but not the best at detection, operation, layout or usability. Spend the extra $69 and get the V1 unless you absolutely don't want a power cord.
Review: Over the past 18 years, I've always driven with whatever the "best" detector was at the time. For the past 12 years, I've used nothing but a Valentine One. And while I love the V1, I really wanted something that I could easily install in my new car...

NOT IMPRESSED!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2004
The Bottom Line: Does not perform as promised...period. MotorTrend gave it the best radar award Feb. 2004, it wasn't real world testing, don't forget Escort spends TONS of money on advertising.
Review: I purchased the S2 Cordless because of its convenience and supposed features. Well, I live in Canada and I get tons of false alarms in city mode all the time to the point where I just turn it off it is that annoying...worse than a wife!! Secondly,...

Escort Solo S2 - a solid, dependable detector

Date of Review:  Sep 10, 2004
The Bottom Line: A solid, dependable detector. Highly recommended
Review: I recently purchased this detector after extensively researching it's abilities and weaknesses. Here's my opinion:
- I already own an Escort 8500, so I have an excellent detector benchmark to compare it to. I purchased the S2 because I was...

Great Detector!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 9, 2009
The Bottom Line: You can't go wrong with the SOLO.
Review: For a cordless (even for a corded model), this Escort satisfies even the most daring of speeders and car enthusiasts.  The selectable alerting capability (Highway, City, Auto) allows the user to avoid many of X band's alerts caused so often by...

WOW! I love it!

Date of Review:  Jun 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're looking at buying a radar detector, this is the one to buy. Great detection range, easy to use, pretty to look at, and durable.
Review: My last radar detector was an X-Band only Uniden about 15 years ago. I'm impressed with how far they've come since then.

We just got back from a 3,000 mile road trip through Oregon, California and Nevada including several major cities. The...

OK..but it ain't no Valentine V1

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you have to have a cordless detector, this is the only game in town; but it's AAA ball at best.
Review: So, having used a V1 for some time and acknowledging it is an excellent detector, I felt the need to go cordless mostly for use on my motorcycle. I had a Beltronics 945 once (not a good radar detector at all!!)and for bike use it was handy. I had...
