Does this actually have a radar detector? I thought it was just GPS of the locations of cameras, combined with a laser detector or have I got this wrong?

The subject line suggests there is both radar and laser detector.
 
Has laser detection but debatable how successful it would be because (a) it's mounted to the unit so might not pick up laser aimed at your number plate and (b) if it picks up the laser it's most probably to late to reduce your speed (assuming you speeding)

You can buy additional units which can be placed in alternative places (looking to the rear etc)
