New Samsung Replacement TV defective after less then 2 months of use

I purchased a brand new 2020 Samsung Smart Tv, which ended up being defective after 3 weeks of use.

It took a month for Samsung to replace the unit, after having to keep calling for weeks.

After less then 2 months of using the new replacement unit, it has now become defective as well.

Samsung has not bothered to reply to my previous mail complaining about the level of service.

Samsung charges a premium for their products, but cannot adequately stand behind and support them with the right level of service.

To anyone who is reading this, do not buy any 2020 Samsung Smart TV as there seems to be a major quality issue with this product line.

Rather save yourself a bunch of money, time and headache and purchase a Hisense or LG.

I got the same feedback last time I left a negative review when I took you 1 month to replace the tv. Get a real person to contact me with solutions. Your generic replies and apologies mean nothing to anyone.
