The Repairman’s Blacklist: 3 TV Brands to Never Buy

Yep no one paid for this I have Hisense that at times is 12 to 16 hours a day when I don't feel well it's approaching 2 years old soon for under a $130 My best friends his Hisense is almost 14 years old. Tcl my $108 one lasted 3 years and I bet if I took it out of storage, yep very low budget is high brow enough that's why they are very inexpensive

After reading all these comments it is very difficult to figure out what to buy.

looking to buy a 65" Sony

Samsung Q60B 50 inch black thin lines after warranty expired
Before this one i had Samsung LED which serve more than 10 years i was amazed

I bought a Samsung, it only lasted 6 years.

Infinix 😡😡😡

Are there any 📺 TV repair guys around? Most people just dispose and buy a new one

I have a Bravia for 10yrs now.

Sony & Samsung buyer here - They work for almost forever! Don't buy cheap brands!

LG's products suck and are not built to last. Die shortly after warranty expires. I will never by another LG product!

No one needs to repair a old tv these days..not like 20 yrs ago.

Samsung 42" series 900 17 years and never had a problem. Still looks great

Is this a paid review to down play the other brands?

the 46 FHD sony bravia i bought in 2011 still running and never had any issue. with samsung we were utterly unlucky. it broke down a few days before the warrenty expiery. the service was excellent and the tv were repaired within a couple of days. but right after it started to get some odd color shift stains that gradually spread across the screen. this tv is still working but we have another one. it's labled as finlux that used to be a quality finnish brand but it is manufctured by vestel in turkey. so far so good it's working excellent. far longer than the previous samsung.

Well, I had bought my Samsung QNQ7F 65inch QLED TV around 2017 and it has died after 9 years. I had paid $3200CAD at the time because it was their top-of-the-line(last cat's meow) QLED TV and it had a great picture. I would've thought that it should've lasted at least 15 yaers before packing it in! And I've been told by the servicing companies in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada that they simply won't even try to fix TV's older than 5 years(they didn't even want to look at it) because contrarily to what you say in your video about Samsung having parts availability and their TV's being repairable, it is not at all the case! And I did the math by dividing $3200 cost of my Samsung TV by 9 years and it cost me just over $355/year. That TV should've really lasted me at least 12 to 15 years before becoming e-waste disposible! I have a Sony CRT TV which has lasted 25 years and is still going strong with a picture as beautiful as when it was bought brand new! In this day and age, I just find that the manufacturers are a bunch of hypocrites in saying that they respect the environment while all along producing products that simply don't last, and end up as e-waste or even in the landfill as a result. All they want to is to make as much money as possible while not giving a damn about the environment. I did my rant because I simply had to get it off my chest! I can tell you that I will never be buying a top-of-the-line Samsung again, that's for damn sure!

Я в LG за 10 років 2 раза підсвідку міняв.Зараз опять стоїть,тільки звук.Взяв Haisens

I have a hisence 4k tv for over eight years and never miss a beat. Before I
Had a Sony and it broke down just after the warrenty expired. This guy is talking rubbish, has a bias against Chinese brand.

I have a LG Oleg for the last 7:years working a lot never have a problem as it’s have a fantastic picture,,,,,

I used my Panasonic plasma for fourteen years, it still goes but don't use as i over polished the screen and wiped the anti glare coating off . My Panasonic 0LED has been going nearly five years... 😮 😂😅

Sony is handing over operational control of its TV and home audio division to the Chinese manufacturer TCL. The two companies formed a joint venture called Bravia Inc., in which TCL holds a 51% controlling stake and Sony retains 49%.

A number of years ago my parents bought a TV from one of those cut rate big box store and 5 years later found that is was a Sony that was rebranded as their private label and it cost a little over half if it had the Sony label. Also, it had a longer warranty.

I've had a Samsung smart TV for 17 years in one room. During that time in our other lounge we've had 1 Sony and 3 LG's.

Agenda to destroy the Chinese Techs but it will not work. TCL has proven to be one of the best. Propaganda 101

Sony since 1976 until now😅

Had my LG BX fir 5 years, no problem s. I now own an LG C5 and it's the best set I've owned

My LG TV has been working about 10 hrs daily since Dec 2011.

Insignia, Hisense, and TCL. There, I just saved you 14 minutes of your life. You're welcome.

I think its the luck of thr draw
I had TCL beautiful tv had for over 5yrs
Got dust stain between screen just a small spot as it bowed apart
But was used like industry as im pretty chair bound and tv on big hrs and hot climate
Gave to my brother and kids used to play game's on it wasn't bad just i noticed it on white objects
Still going several years later
He had hisense tv that was over 5yrs old so i bought one its now 7yrsold still working and so is my brothers
Yet wehad friends swear by sony bravo and had several all broke with in 3 to 5 yrs and went back for repairs several time as well
The repair company turned down brightness and contrast as was what was destroying the tv was what they said
Now going to change brand of tv and there sony cost double ours we paid just under 2k they where paying 5k a tv for sony
I do run my TV's brightness 56% contrast 50%colour saturation 50% sharpness 32%
I get a pretty realistic picture and due to lower settings seem to get a decent ammount of life out of the TV's
The only issue i have is with the black background like space or night time scenes its a little washed out has a slight whitish hume
But didn't seem to matter changing any settings seem to help other then that TV' has a beautiful picture mini led screen
Also gives a beautiful picture in bright light with little to no reflection as my room full of windows and why i picked this TV'
Ue to brightness of room but is equally asgood at night other then black background and not noticeable on small black items just when large black area's
So i think its a lottery on what you get from any brand

You lost me when you suggested an extended warranty. Most people know these are scams.
Face it: All modern electronics are a crap shoot. I have an Insignia that is going on 8 years. I have friends with the high end brands, that barely made two years. In the end, they are all made overseas and we have no idea of the quality or lack thereof that we are getting.

Sony xbr 49 inch 9 years old now 👍

LG is supposed to be the Top next to Sony and Samsung yet Your Cover Picture is LG.Go Figure. 😌

And now TCL owns 51% of Sonys TV business……..

SONY->TCL; TOSHIBA->Hisense

I bought my Sony Bravia in 2004 and I'm still using it today. The picture is beautiful 😊

MOST RESPECTFULLY AVIOD CHINESE MADE BUY KOREAN OR JAPANESE MADE ♥️

I still have the Hisense u7 for about 3 yrs, and still going strong.

I bought a Samsung Oled 5 months ago no trouble as yet. I had the Samsung Qled for anout 8 years it still works but had lines going across the screen start with one line now quiet a few but still watchable was told not worth getting fixed. Was not a cheap TV as the new one I bought on sale was $1999 for 55 inch.

Costco give you a 5 year extended warranty on most televisions. Only place I go.

Правда у Сони есть одна проблема, если он сломается, потом практически невозможно найти к нему детали..

not every 7 year , every 3 years... as maximum. Every time there is something new and some new features and technology comes out!

I have a Loewe Bild i55 and a Panasonic TX-L42DT50E

Overall, I really like my 55 inch Samsung QLED tv. The only issue I've been having is that every few days there is no sound when I turn the tv on. I have to unplug it for 60 seconds or so, plug it back in, turn it on again and then I have sound. The only glitch with this tv.
