TV broken, but now repaired myself (readers' submission)

Well done Hank.
an smsung. Indeed, I hear more about bad service and guarantees from Samsung. Eletrolux also makes it so colorful.
No new TV from Samsung for us.

my Samsung 55 inch, curved screen was also broken after 3 years, TV brought to service point (Samsung) in Nakhon Sawan and would be repaired within 1 week, called after 2 weeks and not ready yet, again 2 wakes later but called again was told me that they were waiting for a part and that it could arrive at any time, well, after 1 week I called again, now angry. The friendly man on the line would take a look and came with the announcement that the device had been ready for 3 weeks and a new circuit board had been installed, costs 5000 Baht. Then picked up the device. It was wrapped in dirty plastic and it looked like it had been rained on, unpacked everything at home and cleaned the screen, was full of greasy fingers. Fortunately, the device worked again. Well, that's what they call service.

It doesn't matter where you live. The trend is "as long as it works" and then you just buy new.
Also called throwaway society. I myself have the idea that the devices contain components that only last a few years, so that a failure is guaranteed.
Or components, which are chosen expressly weak, again for failure.
Guarantee? laughingstock.
Certainly also with renowned brands such as Sony, Sharp, Samsung and others.
You think like that, have a reputation to uphold, but nothing could be further from the truth, direct sales, that's it.
My Samsung broke after 5 years, so a new Sony then. And tada after 4 years a mild defect. A red line across the screen. Out of leniency they offered me a new one, lesser one and pay again by handing in the old one. Faulty screen they said. Not done, not economically justified and then just live with (sometimes a red line across the screen, sometimes it's suddenly gone!) You get used to it, sometimes you don't notice it and sometimes it is indeed gone. Next time a Solora or an LG?
Still talking about my Dell comp, is now 10 years old with first generation I7. Yes ok here too it went wrong once with the power supply, replaced it and it has been running for years now. Knock on.

It is even better to buy a device from an unknown brand, you have the chance that it will last longer.
After all, they have to conquer a place in the competition. If they become too familiar, the same problem will reappear and you should switch again. Well, it may also be that they want to wear out as many dredging products as possible in a short time, so-called fast money and then switch again in product name. Everything is possible and it doesn't matter what the name is.

But you also have that in government affairs. No warranty on the Freya, cost 100 den miles and has gone on the big garbage heap.
The F-35 flies around with only 600 errors left on the plane.
The NH 90 (helicopter) needed so much maintenance (repairs) that there was not enough personnel to maintain them, assembly line work for continuous major maintenance.
And what about the Boeing 737 again? You'll just sit in it and crash. Guarantee? Is no longer there for you.
Durable, warranty? Not in this world anymore.

Indeed, everything quickly breaks down here, temperature, dust, moisture, everything; not conducive to your equipment,
Always take my defective devices to a local mechanic, pump. washing machine, TV, drill
he fixes it all, usually ready for a few hundred thb, don't wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow or next week, but he'll fix it.
