I think the original thread starter meant was the average problematic brand regardless of what brand models. Correct me if I'm wrong.  tongue.gif

It's just a poll, very random and subjective. Of course take it with a pinch of salt. It can't be 100% analyzed breakdown according to make/model/years/run hours... smile.gif

5 years ago before i buy a new plasma TV, i went to electronic shop (not selling shop, but repairing shop) and ask them which brand they receive most to repair. So i suggest other people can use that method also.

The answer i got from that technician is they repair a lots of philips and samsung tv. However, this doesn't mean data was accurate that much because from my observation at their shop, they repair a lots of crt tv. Only a few LCD or flat tv panel at that time. Based on that, it just gave me some idea regarding brand.

i bought my samsung 40" lcd tv same year as my cousin bought his philips lcd tv 40" ( forgot what year is that ) ,last month his philips totally KO meanwhile my samsung still going strong ... but if my samsung KO i definitely upgrade it to UHD , samsung brand for sure

I kinda agree...

I used to asked once a repair shop in the past...more of Sammy...but it's during the new LCD era...

Also, the earlier generation of plasmas had more of those burn in effect...

For myself personally, both my 6 and 5 year-old Sharp and Sony still going strong. Aiming for UHD/4K myself too

Btw, I myself abstain from voting in the poll

Even though Korean brand last time I avoid..now looks like I'm more inclined to Sammy blink.gif

So if near future I were to buy a new unit, it would be a Sammy blink.gif blink.gif

New here...all brands same same lah. It is the fluctuation of our electricity supply which is causing the problem (even though I admit that sometimes it is the hardware). My Sharp 70" died on me about a couple of months ago. First there was a horizontal line on the LED screen. One day later it won't start up. Luckily, the Sharp technicians responded quickly. I had my entire screen replaced within 3 working days.

Basically, when choosing a brand name TV, choose one which has prompt after sale service.

About 6 months. Actually bought 2 units. 1X 60" & 1X 70" and it is the 70" which had a problem.
Don't know about others cos I have been buying Sharp TV all this while. Never had a problem with them before (until the last episode). My usual appliance store which I get all my electrical appliances said that the least problematic TV is actually Toshiba whereas Samsung is the most problematic TV (but highest selling brand). Mitsubishi fridges are another thing though. Mine conked out a few years ago (won't defrost) and they took the fridge back TWICE but still can't fix it. Got an uncle who fixes fridges and he like changed the circuit board and that fixed it promptly. No problem till today (touch wood). So no more Mitsubishi appliances for me, ever.

About the Problematic TVs...

Toshiba hardly people buy nowadays...that's why probably not many cases of spoilt TV.

Samsung is the most saleable TV nowadays with many different models, which could translate into higher breakdown.

But I may be wrong...

Sometimes with electronics...if you're unlucky a good brand also gives you headache blush.gif

How about Panasonic TV?
Don't tell me no one buys it anymore?
Got problems also??

Panasonic very less in the market nowadays...

I think soon may go the same way as Pana Plasma... doh.gif

No doubt I find Pana PQ good, but price wise (which is a main factor) not so attractive, thus I believe many opt for Sammy/LG ( as you can see people are even going for Hisense too).

Some loyalist will still opt for Philips/Sony/Pana though

SO the story goes like this...

My Sharp after 6 years LCD problem...32"...entry level basic

Now gonna purchase/upgrade to at least 55" rclxm9.gif

Haven't bought...but looks like front runner is Samsung curved led tv...too hooked on the curve thingy

Full HD/UHD...Im thinking the distant to TV is quite far so doesn't make much difference between UHD/Full HD...so Full HD lo

Sony/Panasonic/Sharp also in the running....

No need smart TV (got android TVBox)...

Not into 3D

HDR? No Full HD HDR leh...
