2 year old Samsung 8000 (UN55D8000YF) series 55" LED TV dead. Out of warranty. I am told $600 to repair it. Not happy about this. I kept it on a UPS battery backup / surge protector / line conditioner to make sure no power surges got to it. At over $2000 dollars for the product and now over 25% of the original cost to repair it in less then two years? The screen went black while watching a movie. And now the screen wont power up. The front power LED flashes a sequence of flashes. 10 flashes total in a series of 2-2-2-2-2.. And then there is a clicking noise in the set. Are consumers supposed to spend $2000 plus every two years for a new TV? I see a lot of similar issues on the internet for other Samsung owners... They are not hard to find.
When working. The TV has a great picture, and I am very happy with it. The 3D works very well... And while I don't use much of the internet connectivity stuff on it. There is a lot of it, and it is fun to play with.
