I bought a TCL tv (model: 55P8M) on 10 Dec 2019, but it was only delivered to my home in late January 2020. This meant that I was cheated out of more than one month's warranty out of the 12-month full warranty period even before I got the tv.
And as if it was pre-programmed, in late January 2021 (ie after the 12-month full warranty had expired), 1/3 of the screen started blinking. But as the 12-month full warranty had ended, I had little choice but to live with the blinking screen. I thought the worst was over.
However, almost exactly two years after I received the tv, the screen went completely kaput in late January! Every time I switch on the tv, I only see multi-coloured lines! No picture, no sound, nothing else! And this after just two years.
I have bought many other tv brands - Philips, Samsung, JVC, Panasonic, Sony, etc - and they all lasted for at least five years each. None of them got completely spoilt after just two years. I very strongly recommend NOT buying a TCL tv. Spend a few dollars more, and get a better quality tv. TCL tv quality is crap.
