    Default AncestryDNA or 23andme

    Im planning for a while now to take one of those dna tests, the opinions here on myheritage mostly negative so I decided to choose from these two other companies. Which one would you recommend for someone with most likely east european descent? I heard somewhere that 23andme is not the best to make difference in this region due to lack of samples, how accurate is this information?... although they can tell haplogroups which I also like to know . Can ancestryDna recognize ydna?

    23andme. More rigorous and scientific than AncestryDNA.

    AncestryDNA won't tell you your Y-DNA but there are ways to pull it from your rawDNA.

    23and me is best choice by far for Hungarians, you will get Y and mtDNA haplogroup too. I reccomend it !

    Don't buy ancestry , it is great only for Western Europeans.
    Stears is 100 percent Eastern European on Ancestry, not very informative.
    That's because on Ancestry DNA everything from Bulgaria to Kazakhstan is lumped under "eastern Europe "
