Title: White Dots
Review: I purchased TV back in July 2007. Now white spots are appearing all over the screen. I found that this is due to a widespread problem with the DLP chips. The repairs are about $600 from an authorized Samsung repair shop. However you can do it yourself for about $180. The chips themselves are about $170 plus a few bucks more for some thermal paste.Anyways I am pretty disappointed by this TV and in Samsung. A 5 year life for a $2400 TV just doesn't seem right. Sadly I recommended this TV and other Samsung products to others - Hopefully my friends won't experience similar problems.Just as an FYI the white spot problem is prevalent across several models. Some models are covered for out-of-warranty repairs by Samsung. So its worth calling in if you are experiencing this problem with a different model. In addition, if you have this model call in anyways - I am thinking if there are enough reports Samsung may include this model in their list of TVs that are covered for the white spot issue.
Is the review positive or negative?
