So expensive TVs last longer than cheap ones. That goodness this new information has come to light, thanks Tom's hardware for this breaking analysis.
Literally the opposite of what they said.
They said OLED had lowest failure rate, which is true, LCD has highest. LCD are cheap, OLED is expensive. They even said local dimming tech sits in the middle, which is true for price and returns. We get LCDs coming back all the time, OLEDs almost never.
So it's about display technology and not the price. If you compare products of the same technology and the price you can see that it doesn't correspond to better longevity.
