Help! I've had my TCL Roku tv for a little over 2 years, today when I went to use it, it's blacks! The first time I turned it on, I could just barely see the screen. I turned it off, turned it back on (as most do) and the TCL screen flashed for 1 second in all color then went black again. The TV is on because when I use the remote, it makes noise. I've unplugged and replugged all the cords, I've left the power cord unplugged for several minutes and still nothing. Advice?

Buying my first home currently. The house we’re in contract with has a very nice open floor concept and a large living room and I would like to get a tv that’s going to be big enough to be comfortable for the whole room. I’m not super up to date on what’s good, I know more about gaming monitors than TVs. Deff want it to be a smart TV, and also available on Amazon as I’ve been saving points for this purchase. Any recommendations appreciated.

Edit: going to be mounted into a brick fireplace if that makes a difference. Also plan on doing YouTube tv instead of cable.

Gday guys I’m having a conundrum. I am in the market for a new tv. I have narrowed it down to 2 selections

Sony x90L at 65 inches LG B4 at 55 inches

I am on a tight budget so these are the choices. Or should I save for $400 more to get the C4? It’s mainly for media and gaming. I have a ps5 and a gaming pc. I am also wanting to keep my soundbar

My sony bravia tv from 2017 abruptly burned out the other day. I'm curious if I should buy pay to repair it or if a newer entry level tv might be better. Im not sure how much the improvements on tv technology may have made my almost decade old one obsolete.

I've owned a pioneer kuro 5010 for sixteen years. I still think it looks amazing. I'm also middle aged and my eyes are not what they used to be but I still love it. But it's small compared to my wall and room. I'm thinking of getting an oled. Am I insane to think it may be a step down? I mostly watch films/streams (the latter on an Apple TV 4K) blu rays and occasionally play PS5 games. Any thoughts?

In the last two years I have gone through 4 65” TVs that have all had terrible picture problems. It started when a 2013 Samsung I had died two years ago (great picture, never an issue). I went to Best Buy, read reviews online, and then decided to get a Sony XK90 LED. Long story short I learned what vertical banding and dirty screen effect are from that unit. Did an exchange for another XK90 thinking it may be a bad panel and the replacement had the exact same issues. After that I exchanged for a Samsung 80s series QLED. It still had vertical banding but to a lesser extent. So I decided to live with it. Unfortunately, my 4 year threw a toy and shattered part of the screen. Recently I replaced the Samsung with a TCL QD-Mini LED. It has vertical banding, a grainy picture, and struggles to refresh live content. I almost can’t watch it because it’s so terrible and frustrating.

Can anyone please direct me to a 65” TV in the $800-$1200 price range than doesn’t suck??? I’m using an Apple TV with YouTube TV and other streaming apps for the feed. I am hamstrung to using Best Buy for the TCL return/exchange. Most of what I watch is live sports (football, hockey, and golf). TIA for any help!

I'm a student and I moved into my new apartment. I've been looking for a new TV and stumbled upon the 43 Inch 4K LG NanoCell Smart TV NANO81. The price for 365€ seems reasonable and I wanted to ask for opinions.

• My budget is around 500€

• I might play on it sometimes, but most of the time just use my pc

• I would like to handle audio over separate boxes, so I think it's okay if its sound is only "Alright"

• Due to space, I can't go much bigger than 43 inches.

Thank you for your help

My dad has a fairly old Philips flat screen TV (late 2000s or early 2010s, I think) in a rural area.

TV seems to be having issues with the audio. He said the TV would turn on and be mute and he would turn it off from the energy and the sound would come back the next time he turned it on. This happened a few times. Until today it didn't. He said he tried messing with the cables, but he has virtually no knowledge of technology, to the point I had to suggest him to try the mute button on the remote (before he mentioned it kept happening).

From what he described, I'm assuming something burned, specially because we live in a tropical country and it is currently storm season. I'm trying to figure if it could be something that I solve myself, given that he is pretty far from a place to fix it and it would probably be fairly expensive to pay someone to do so. It is also the only TV in the house and he doesn't watch anything on his phone, so leaving it some place would suck.

While I'm not as bad at technology as he is, the extent of my ability was to disassemble and reassemble a dell computer following a youtube tutorial, so if it's something overtly complicated I will have to leave it to the professionals.

Help please

I've been trying to decide on a TV for a while now. I think I've settled on the Samsung S905C OLED QE55S95CATXXU, which is on sale at the moment for €1,300.

Does this sound like a good choice, any opinions or experiences with it?

I want to mount it flush to the wall, and use the one connect box with it. Is there a reason Samsung discontinued the one connect box? I like the idea of a flush wall mount, and I think it looks really neat. But the S905D is not near as narrow

Thanks a mill

We are looking to get a new tv, and our living room is pretty bright during the day... which one is better?

I got a oled tv, the new maid that came in today used windex to clean the screen stupid ikr.

Anyway im using it now not noticing anything, is it likely this single instance caused damage or is one time unlikely to cause damage.

Hi all, I'm deciding between Philips 65OLED819 and Samsung QE65S90DATXXH for my next TV. The Philips is 1700 EUR and the Samsung 1550. I'm willing to pay 150 EUR more if it is worth it.

I haven't found much information online about the Philips 65OLED769, apparently they are not sold in the US and that's the reason for a lack of reviews (?). I found a lot of good things about the Samsung QE65S90DATXXH. However, it seems with the Samsung I can get either WOLED or QD-OLED (I don't know what that means but apparently the latter is much better) based on size and location. I'm looking at 65'' in Slovenia (EU). I saw a comment on Youtube that says if it has "DAT" in the name it should be QD-OLED. I would welcome any additional information or tips that you might have. Thank you!

TLDR: Which TV would you recommend, Philips 65OLED819 or Samsung 65S90D?

So this started last night (as of when I’m posting this), I turn my tv on and it does the EKO TV screen, and then it just turns off. I don’t know why this is happening and I’ve tried everything I’ve been told, (unplug and wait 30 seconds, replace remote batteries, ect.), I’ve looked it up, but nothing has helped.

So if anyone has any suggestions or tips on what I should do, please reply to this post. Thanks

Hello all.

I'm planning to purchase a 43 inch TV in Chennai, India, via Amazon/Flipkart/Croma and came across 2 models with similar costs and features.

Please help me choose one (feel free to suggest outside the list as well)

1. Xiaomi 43 inches  X Series 4K LED Smart Google TV

https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B0DC6SMTL7/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3K8GDUW67973J&th=1

1. Xiaomi 43 inches  A Pro 4K Dolby Vision Smart Google TV

https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B0DBRL1SYQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A3K8GDUW67973J&th=1

Hey everyone! I was hoping to get some assistance with recommendations on a tv I want to buy for my home theater.

Some small details of the room are that it’s painted black and will have no outside light in the room.

The few tvs that I’m looking at are:

This LG one: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6596700.p?skuId=6596700&sb_share_source=PDP

This Sony one: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6544731.p?skuId=6544731&sb_share_source=PDP

This TCL one: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6579450.p?skuId=6579450&sb_share_source=PDP

I’m hoping to get some pros and cons from people that may have those specific models or even recommendations for ones that I haven’t listed which can be different brands or different models from the brands above.

I’m open to anything but because the room is big I don’t want to go smaller in size. I’m also not open to a projector.

My tv will sometimes misalign the top and bottom half, any idea why and how to fix?

Imagine the top half was moved 1 cm to the left and bottom half remained stable

My parents (80s/90s-year-old) only watch YouTube on an old Samsung Smart TV that's about 10 years old. I also use the TV sometimes and it has most apps like Netflix, Hulu, etc. but it does not have Paramount Plus. I've tried using Apple TV, Chromecast, and Roku, but my parents can't get used to the new user interface. (They like to have YouTube on all the time, rather than reverting to a Home screen with apps.)

I would like to watch Paramount Plus on the TV about once a week. What would be a cheap/easy way to do this? Do I just plug in some kind of casting device when I'm there and remove it when I'm done? Will it require setup each time? Is there a way to cast from my phone directly to the TV if the TV does not have the Paramount Plus app? Can I just plug my phone or laptop into the TV directly and mirror the screen?

I have some cheap Crown TV (CROWN32FB12AWH). From what I read it's some Samsung sub. I disabled all the off timers I know of in the menus. Sleep / Auto shutdown timer.

But when I watch some recorded show from a USB drive every ~20 mins or so I get some 60 seconds shutdown timer in the top right corner and if I don't press a button on the remote the TV shuts down.

I have no idea what is this and how to disable it. Any ideas?

My living room TV is over a decade old. It’s not a smart TV, only 1080p, LED panel, and weighs over 30 pounds (still light by my standards). Shockingly it’s 120hz. It works perfectly fine for everything I need it for. I’ve been wondering lately though, should I upgrade? I don’t know what I’m missing out on, but is it something that once I’m aware I’m going to want it? My computer monitors are probably better equipped than my main TV haha. Am I going to see any meaningful benefit to upgrading other than higher resolution? (Frequency and response time don’t matter much since I don’t really game on my TV)

First and foremost: I am NOT against TLC, I love the brand, however, it’s kind of hard to find newer ones with US pricing (or at least something similar). The budget would be ~$600-700 AFTER taxes, so like 7000-8000 SEK. 50”+

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I know it’s gonna be “shit”, just because it won’t be OLED 120Hz. But we are casual netflix watchers, and we might get a PS5 for story games later on the year, but nothing competitive, that stays on PC haha

Which is more recommended ?

I have my eyes on a 50" 720p plasma. I only watch DVDs, tapes and the low quality options for streaming so I very rarely stream anything above 720p anyway.

Will 720p (or lower) content look better on a 720p screen than on a 1080p screen?

As title states, my not even 2 yo Toshiba has audio but no picture. 😕

And YES, I have unplugged, plugged back in dozens of times.

Researching had me hold down the power button as I plugged it back in.

Another tip was to hold the select button and play button at same time.

I left it unplugged for a couple of hours and plugged in a different outlet.

Nothing.

I removed all cords going to the TV.

I just had to laugh at one suggestion by AI to "go to my settings and restart"

Yeah, I would, BUT I CANT SEE THE SCREEN!! lmao 😏

Anyhoo, anyone have any other suggestions aside from its a goner?

I did reach out to Toshiba and a tech is supposed to get back in touch. Yeaaah, so....

Afraid I have exhausted all the normal tricks to get it to reset.

Also afraid I'm out a TV, too. 🥺🫣

This was the first smart TV I owned and may be my last, if at all possible.

We still have a Samsung in the bedroom that is nearly 10yo but it's not smart. Just an old dumb one. 😁

TIA ❤️

I am going to get a 85” TV.
I have narrowed it down to the SonyXR70 and the Sony X90L.

What do you recommend? Please exclude the price between the two, assume it’s the same.

It’s the family room tv. We every once in a while will hock up the Nintendo Switch to play family games, but for the most part, we YoutubeTV/Netflix.

Pros/Cons would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

It say QLED at the title but the ad actually says its just LED. Confusing, is it better then UHD or not? They're at the same price range.

The TV in question is a Sansui SLED-40FHDA. I can't find anything on Google or YouTube. Everything I find is regarding Android Smart TVs and this definitely isn't one.

I’m told this often isn’t possible. Anybody know any model ranges where this works? Thanks.

So the tvs are Sony Bravia 3 s30 vs Samsung 55q60d and the prices are sansung is cheaper than sony the price difference is about 70dollars
