What is the board consensus for the best unit for the 2016 model?

I just got an Escort Max 360. It synchs with the phone to access a cloud database of speed trap, radar and photo light locations. App is a power hog, though, because it is online and the screen is lit all the time. Must keep plugged in.

Detector works OK with the arrows but I think I liked my old Valentine 1 better.

After doing some research I too went with the Max 360.
Did the rear view mirror mod... Awesome upgrade.

The best would be Max 360.

I know which is best for a 2015 and a 2017 model but not for a 2016.

This is the only thing I have found that will protect me from the microwaves emitted by police radar units.
