... mainly because I had a Costco Samsung that died after three years. THREE YEARS. Took it into a repair shop and they said the panel went out, zero issues with anything else. Too bad the panel replacement would have cost about the same as the original price...

So yeah, fuck Samsung. I got an old Panasonic Plasma that's still going strong, well over 10 years now, in my bedroom.

First time I ever "splurged" for a TV (ie, didn't go for the biggest screen for the lowest price) and I love it. 4k, fantastic HDR, excellent reviews (including longevity) all around, I think I paid 1600 total for the 65" after all was said and done.


But if you're going for a two-TV set up, then I'm assuming this one isn't your primary? Then yeah thewirecutter seemed pretty high on the TCL's that Lach mentioned for a great price.
