QUOTE(khaidani @ Sep 7 2009, 08:53 AM) hi, would like ask u guyz opinion .. check with the shop where he bought whether can get extended warranty or smthing...i'm planning to buy an lcd tv, and with my budget of rm2000 i think i can only have 32 inch full hd , well i think its suit me enough but currently i got offer 40" Samsung fullhd from someone with RM2000 as well, so i think the offer is quite tempting, coz its 40" , but the warranty only got 3 months left, is it worth and reliable for me? how much it will cost if need to repair when problem occur? any shop that can repair lcd tv? btw it's Samsung 40" Full HD LA40A650 trust me...you'd be lucky if this set survives another year...LCD has very limited lifespan, unlike the good old CRT. Everything bows to luck bro. but if it go kaput...maybe u need to fork about a few hundred for repairs... read somewhere here there's a samsung warehouse sale...maybe u wanna check that out first...coz surely u'd get longer warranty from sales like that cheers |

read somewhere tat lcd lifespan is only about 4 years max...coz not all the components they use in it is good. like plasma, even though the lamp may last longer, other components in it might just die prematurely...
sad but true. i guess we'd all better go back to the bulky old crt...that one very reliable...  |

QUOTE(geforce1999 @ Sep 14 2009, 09:27 PM) Nowadays, don't believe thing can last long as stated by manufacturer, my 37" Philips LCD died after slightly over 3 yrs and luckily it could not be repaired and I got some $$ back since I have 5 yrs warranty. 5 years warranty? nice. it must cost a bomb last time to pay for this extended warranty. but good investment there. i guess all these new technologies are meant for long run use...coz they just depreciate faster than everything else. |
