Negative Positive
Title: Great while it lasted - 2.5 years and no color red.
Review: This was my 2nd HDTV, the first being a rear projection unit. The picture was sharp and beautiful from July, 2007 up until January, 2010 at which point the red LED burned out. Researching this online while staring at a blue-green picture I found that this make and model of Samsung has this problem ALL THE TIME.In fact, I got pretty lucky that it lasted 2.5 years. Some folks have this happen after just 12, 15 or 18 months.The red LED can be obtained for around $100 but there's a 4 week backorder on it. Something tells me that's another indication how common the problem is. I could buy a light engine for $1000 but that would be throwing another grand at a set that still has a weak red LED.
Is the review positive or negative?
