Sony or Samsung

[sujithtom]

I am gonna buy DVD writer and I have two options in front of me, The cheaper Samsung (Rs 2900) or Sony (Rs 3400). Both supports Dual Layer. Which one should i buy? Is Sony better than Samsung in reducing reading errors? Plz help me.

Anyday Sony is the best in DVD Writers. Second option should be Liteon... No to Samsung.

 

[dIgItaL_BrAt]

Sony,without any doubt.
Samsung is the worst choice for optical drives.

My Choice would be LiteON. They make very good Drives. ANyway, never go for Samsung. They do good marketing that's all.

He was giving emphasis to read errors. Considering that aspect I hope somebody will comment on the comparison. Who knows, maybe Samsung wins atleast in that parameter!

Buy anything other than samsung , buying a samsung optical drive is like jumping into a well full of stones and no water .

Samsung drives are the worst possible ones.

2nd choice must be LiteOn
