This comparison test between the Panasonic DMR-EX77EC1S recorder and the Samsung DVD-HR753 has the goal of pitting these two renowned manufacturers against each other so that the buyer can get a good idea of what each product is capable of.
At no time in this test will we be looking at what the general public should be buying, as this depends on your needs. Instead, the objective is to simply state the position of the two products so that a simple user with no particular knowledge will have an immediate idea of what they are buying (copy media to media, recording, programming).
There are numerous points of comparison. We will be looking at the exterior of the devices, their look and design, the remote and other details that deserve attention.
The other elements that are interesting include the multimedia functions, with the playing and recording of content (audio, video, photo), the quality of the navigation menu (easy to use or not?), the recording functions on the hard drive and DVD, all internal connection options (Digital tuner) and external (DV connector, SD, optical, HDMI).
At the end of this comparison we will decide which one seems like the best choice to us. And isn’t this what a freelance journalist should be doing? Not everyone can be the winner! There is surely one of the two products that will impress us more then the other. All the critical points, both positive and negative, will be laid out so that at the end when our decision is made it will be justified…
