I will replace my 1080 TV when it breaks. It has already failed once, the LED backlight replacement cost 1/5 of the a new TV. Next time it goes to waste (the bulk is mostly aluminum anyway).
- josho 8y ago> will replace my 1080 TV when it breaks. And sadly it’s been designed to break sometime around the 7-10 year mark. E.g. using minimal amount of solder on connections that will eventually crack after repeated warm/cold cycles from use.
- jotm 8y agoHah, solder cracks. LG panels backlight completely shuts off if one LED dies (for, uh, "safety" reasons, they couldn't design a proper fucking power supply). Which they do, a lot. Now, you can barely notice one LED gone. Replacing the strip costs 1/4-1/3 of a new TV. This fucking world...
