Hm... unless you're pretty hard up, I'd probably go ahead and spend the extra for the Philips.

Hard up financially speaking. Not much good to save $10-20 now if the unit dies in less than two years and you have to replace it. If it's just a rebadge I'd probably say go for it.

are you telling me you know this unit dies in less than 2 years? Or are you just speculating? Because if you are speculating how do you know the Phillips wont die? Is it a rebadge?
