In conclusion: Saphe is unbelievable value and gives you extra security thanks to its separate unit, but it relies on your phone and does not have as much information as Road Angel. Road Angel is the best but it is too expensive both in its initial cost and then subscription and they aren’t able to produce units and sell them which means it may be a moot point as if you can only get Saphe that may make the choice for you!
If you are doing say 68mph does the Saphe Pro still tell you that a speed camera is nearby ?
Waze is terrible at this and I had a near miss last week due to my adaptive cruise control.
Thanks for an excellent video!
In Denmark and Sweden, "ph" for example in "Saphe", is pronounced as "f", like "Safe" in English.
😊
Thanks!
Technically we should pronounce it the same way ph sounds like an f in English too its just the fact its an odd word to look at in general
Thanks Sooo Much
You're welcome!
Problem is that the main database for gps detectors haven’t been kept upto date for years now. Doesn’t matter which one you get, they all pretty much use one of two outdated databases
Do any of these show your actual average speed between cameras ???? The Road Angel Gem used to show this but Im struggling to find a replacement
Yes, the Road Angel does show that.
Saphe does
Does it cost money to use it?
My brightness on the pro dont work what can i do, its only brighter when the alarm starts
Try resetting it, check the phone settings when it is connected as it may have a brightness setting. If not contact Saphe support.
Do any of these work for mobile speed camera vans?
Mobile speed camera vans are in the same place, they will warn you of the location but they have no way of knowing if the vans are actually there. Waze would be better for this. You just need to be aware that they might be there and be prepared.
Thanks that was a really helpful comparison, I have the Road Angel Pure and like you, I think it is way overpriced and has dated tech which frustrates me. I also find the lag in updating the speed on the Road Angel is unacceptable, sometimes it is 10mph to 15 mph behind the actual speed that you are doing. I really don't understand this company as they have a unique product for the U.K but they are making it a niche product because of its price.
Glad it was helpful! It is the best option but they have issues that are holding them back and I agree about that.
Does the saphe always display your current speed ot does it just appear newr cameras? Thanks in advance.
Always shows your speed even when there is no camera.
I have a saphe, and been seemless once they replaced a faulty unit
It works, I just don’t think it is as good as Road Angel - but RA is too expensive. If Saphe made a stand alone version it would be better than RA if the price was around £150 - which was actually close to the RA price pre-Covid.
Road angel is about £400-600 for 3 years…Thats is a lot
can saphe work with the app running in the background or have my phone screen off ?
Yes, but your phone must be connected to the internet and Bluetooth to the device but it can be asleep.
@@TechInTheCarMy Saphe doesn't turn on automatically when driving. I have to manually turn it on and when I turn bluetooth off, the bluetooth logo is flashing on my Saphe. I don't want that in the middle of night when my car is parked and a constantly display is flashing. Gives easy target for thieves. What can I do?
I've just bought a saphe drive mini from Halfords for £59 and I can't see any requirement for a subscription? Worked fine coming home. The bulkier version was only £49, which compared to a speeding fine, and the ball ache of a speed awareness course or points has to be a bargain.
Make sure you open the box before leaving store, I was in Halfords changing my brand new Sony DIN 1 radio (Faceplate doesn't click shut - "Yeah it's a known fault" So why sell them without checking them!!) and then the saphe turned out to have been pre-opened and put back in stock with a crumpled instruction sheet and missing sticky pad.
You get one year free when you register and set it up using the app.
Does the saphe detect moblie speed camera's?
If it is in the database it will, or another use adds it.
Several mistakes in this video and I'm only 3 minutes in
