    You'd think the V1 would actually be longer since the extra antenna is in the back :P

The Valentine One is wider because it has 2 antennas and not 1 like every other radar detector, but it is shorter and not as tall which gives you more mounting options.

    As far as weight goes,

    Valentine One -> 181.5g (6.40 ounces)
    Escort 8500 X50 -> 253.7g (8.95 ounces)
    Beltronics RX65 Pro -> 236.6g (8.35 ounces)
    Beltronics STi Driver -> 291.6g ( 10.29 ounces)

    As you can see, the 8500 X50 is the largest in size and the Bel STi Driver is the heaviest. The Valentine One is the smallest and lightest radar detector of the Top 4 radar detectors made today.
    Right I was merely looking at it from a 2D perspective, thats all, I dont really care about area displacement, and mass or any of that, but I have to agree with SAS, I would think that the dual antennas on the V1 would make it longer too, but thats why its wider I guess
