" ... Had this tv just over a year and the screen went black. ... "
" ... Barely had the tv 3 months and the screen is starting to go out. ... "
" ... The screen has a terrible refresh rate of 60HZ - not apparent on any advertised specs (the mfgr twists it to 120mmc - a meaningless measure). ... The manufacturer also passes this screen off as as a 4K UHD which it does not render . ... THIS FLAT SCREEN DOES NOT EVEN MEASURE UP TO EVEN MEDIOCRE STANDARDS . ... The only problem was repacking the screen. ... "
