Stingrays - legal?

Police has been using them since the 90s for tapping cellphones, it was controversial then, is it even legal for them to use those, or to use the recorded calls as evidence in court? Does anybody got any info on that? Can they use them for convictions or is it just to gather intel "off the record"?? Popular places to install those are airports and train stations to catch smugglers I think.

Of course this may differ from country to country, but I'm asking in general what is known about them in this regard.
