The screens will last 20 years, but the capacitors on the circuit boards will leak and die in less than half that time. The little reflectors for the LEDs like to fall off giving you a bright spot on the screen. Cheap adhesive. LCD & LED TVs are pretty easy to trouble shoot & repair, if you can find components for them. The screens, themselves, last an extremely long time.

[@angrycatowner]

Most likeky, the backlight will fail when 1 of the LED's dies.

[@thomasmittelwerk410]

Pretty easy to repair, but a PITA to dissasemble and reassemble. Those screens are fragile as fuck, and can break while disassembling/reassembling. Source: I broke one, trying to replace the LED backlights.

[@hackhp]

I'm still using an lcd panel from 1997. I've transplanted it to its third chassis, and the screen itself still looks far more vibrant than anything sold today. Almost 300,000 power on hours and it's still flawless with no dead pixels!

[@konradpetz7317]

[@wakcedout]

Watching tvs go from cathode ray tubes to flat screen has been impressive. Between just a tv and a computer monitor the old crts would take up a decent amount of space, especially if you wanted and could afford a large one. Now you see massive flat screen tvs going for a fraction of their crt counterparts prices, and weighing far less. What once took two people and a handcart to move, one person can manage. And computer desks have now had space freed up making the old keyboard slides unnecessary. All of this change happened in less than 20 years which is amazing considering how long the crt itself lasted.

Buying a television set used be quite a chore, the bigger the set the heavier it was and the box was huge, a two person process usually requiring a large vehicle to trassport the thing, a van or pickup truck, then there was the arduous task of getting it into the house taking it out of the box and setting it on a sturdy stand, before that were the big consoles sometimes with the stereo components but in, a large heavy piece of furniture, they were for people with a lot of money and a big house and couldn't be brought home it had to be delivered. Who would have thought that one day you could go to the store pop a 50 inch tv in your shopping cart and wheel it out of the store by yourself, I bought a Panasonic 47 inch projection tv back in 2000, it was a massive unit that was delivered, a plasma set at the time cost around 20,000 and weren't that big, I paid 2,500 for the 47 inch, I sold it right before flat screens started to come down in price, a friend of mine has a 65 inch I think projection tv in her basement that her brother bought, it came in two pieces, nobody will ever want to buy it so she's stuck with it.

[@saintsone7877]

If you have the money it is better to buy a tester unit(around $10k) and buy the lowest priced tv at the resolution you want. When the TV breaks down plug into tester which will show you which component to replace(usually less than $1 to buy from electronics stores) and all you do is unsolder the defective part, solder in the replacement and viola your tv works again for whatever period. Most people replace their TV's every 5 years or so(often less) yet keep replacing defective components and you can get 20+ years usage from same tv. Work out the cost of minimum 4-5 tv's over that period and it is far more than a tester unit and soldering iron and solder. People are so wasteful nowadays.

​​@@marcellachine5718yep this TV is called LED. But you mentioned OLED which doesn't use led backlight, in OLED every pixel has its own light source.

Vestel, at their most, could only make TVs in name of them and it most certainly will be on the lower ranks of quality if that is the case.

When extraction is done, a little kerosene is used to burn up the parts not able to be recycled or it just ends up in their environment, rivers, streams, landscape, etc. Seen it a 100+ times over there.
