Which is better, OE or OEM?
Generally, OE parts tend to be more expensive than OEM parts due to the branding and packaging by the manufacturer. However, both types maintain high quality and performance standards. Choosing between the two often comes down to cost preference and brand loyalty. When deciding to use an OEM vs an ODM, it really comes down to available resources. If a company has a research and development budget, along with a reasonable time-to-market plan, then using an OEM is a good fit. If time and resources are scarce, then ODM is the route to go to launch a product.
