We loved the look of the sleek, piano black Sapphire, with its smart colour screen and easy-to-access options list. As it has an on-board battery, it could also be used on two wheels, or in-car without a power lead. It has useful voice warnings/speed limits and clear information on-screen to back it up. And while we caught it out on a tricky reversible camera, it was spot-on otherwise.

PogoAlert

The stylish and compact Pogo Alert speed camera detector features a slightly larger colour TFT screen. The Pogo Alert also features a Laser detector for detection of mobile Laser based speed camera vans and other handheld devices. With the Snooper Sapphire the screen colour can be changed to match your vehicles instruments and is also powered via a rechargeable internal battery making it wire free on your vehicles dashboard. The Pogo Alert needs to be connected to your vehicles power at all times, though both systems have the option to be hardwired resulting in a cable free dashboard. The Snooper Sapphire also provides alerts to speed cameras in the UK and Western Europe, whilst the Pogo Alert provides alerts to UK only, though a European database is planned to be released before the end of the year. Both systems have been designed to be plug and play and can also be easily transferred from vehicle to vehicle.
