For ease of use - Scanner wins.. For speed- BufferedReader

basically scanner class takes input in form of tokens and buffered reader reads the input whole as a stream.. here token is a series of characters which ends with a delimiter either whitespace end of file or null.. so when u ask user to input data, the data is rendered by every token and waits for a delimiter.. so the exception may or may not occur .. but in buffered reader the input is read in a stream of line then the exception may occur, if there is a whitespace or endoffile at the beginning itself.. so it needs to throw Exception.. source:Google
