Editorial note
The LG BH12LS35 optical drive stands out for its high performance, offering fast writing and reading speeds that ensure efficient burning and a smooth user experience. With speeds of up to 16x for DVDs and 48x for CDs, it perfectly meets the burning needs of various types of media. Additionally, its SATA interface allows for easy connection to many devices, while the LightScribe feature provides a convenient customization option for users wishing to burn labels onto their discs. However, the product has some drawbacks. Its lack of a USB interface may limit its compatibility with modern computers that lack SATA ports. Furthermore, although its access time is reasonable, it may not satisfy users with particularly high demands for playing heavy multimedia files. The weight of 800 g may also be perceived as a bit heavy for an optical drive, which can complicate its transport. Finally, the limited compatibility with recent operating systems, such as Windows 10 and 11, could pose challenges for those looking to use this model on current machines. In terms of value for money, the LG BH12LS35 is appealing given its performance. However, the absence of certain advanced features and a USB interface may disappoint professional users seeking more high-end solutions. Overall, this product is a solid option for those who need a high-performing and compact optical drive, while remaining aware of its limitations.Score details
