MODTHEBOX would like to thank Eileen from Samsung Canada
for sending the DVD-R120 DVD Recorder for review.
Introduction:
With the current state of both technology and the video industry, several products have been derived
from necessity of each other. Often, a combination of both has proven to bring a fresh new concept to
the consumer market. The PVR or Personal Video Recorder market is one area, which in its current state
and success is relative to this scenario that technology and demand often dictate the new standards to
be adapted. Smaller, more efficient media players are gaining popularity and bring a wealth of benefits
when compared to existing portable media players and technology. Today in MTB Labs, we will be
evaluating the new Samsung DVD-R120 DVD Recorder; an all-in-one media solution which provides
multi-format DVD recordings.
Specifications:
The DVD-R120 DVD Recorder is one of three available DVD Recorder based units available from Samsung
Canada. The DVD-R120 features a one touch recording button that makes recording easier than ever.
By simply pressing the button, the Samsung DVD Recorder automatically searches the available recording
space on the disc and starts recording the selected program. Here are some features and specifications
taken directly from the Samsung Canada website:
