As TVs become more commodity and more complex at the same time, it seems quality and 'longevity' is going down the tubes.
Family bought 19" Trinitron when they were new. Set lasted until you simply could no longer get the mechanical tuner parts needed for fix. Maybe 20 years?
My Sony SXRD rear projector lasted a few years, thru the first lamp and than started going South due to light engine problems. Even though SONY was a Major Patent Holder in that space. Didn't they know the plastic filters were junk? Why NOT use heat-proof glass?
My Panasonic 50" Plasma? I just took it into the shop for the person I sold it to. Call it a 2011 model.
If my New LG OLED fails I'll be beyond disappointed.
Too much is never enough
