Now, nearly two years later, has the sales data changed in any way? Are the newer BDR-S13 and BDR-XS08/XD08 more reliable than their respective previous gen, or is the BDR-S12 and BDR-XS07/XD07 still the most reliable?

The 13/213 series is about the same as the s12/212 in reliability
I have found the xd08 to be the most reliable yet over 500 sold in the last month not 1 bad or damaged in shipping

We agree with Billy on this. The BDR-XD08 is a great drive and very reliable. We have secured a couple of pallets US stock which will hopefully arrive after Christmas 🎄

Happy Christmas Everyone from the team at UHD Friendly Drives that is us finished up for Christmas.

i have moved to exclusively to pioneer xd08 as the other drives are now gone I know that the S12 and S13 series, along with some of the 212 and 213 models, used glass lenses, but I'm unable to find any definite info as to whether the XD08 uses a glass lens or a plastic lens. Do you know? If it does...
