Samsung flat screen TV’s

I have purchased 3 large flat screens since 2012 and all of them have died after 3 to 5 years. The last one yesterday, a curved 52inch HD 4K.
The first one began to have serious color aberrations, the second one was strange and turned off and on non-stop. The third (curved) went black, unable to bring up menu, cable fine, sound fine.

Anyone else experience this? Is there a better brand? Bought a Vizio a few years ago which had a beautiful picture but was as fragile as crystal.

I owned a 36" Samsung. At the 3 year mark the screen went black. Contacted the company, they only service the high-end Smart TV's. 

Samsung manufactures TVs in several countries. They have recently closed their factory in China.

Samsung purchased in 2012 went black last week. A thicker larger Vizio from 2007 is still great. TCL-Roku replaced the Samsung now.

LG and Sony make the best OLED TVs and the picture quality is spectacular in both much better than anything LED.
