I did this as well. Been buying Samsung since 2006 and finally said let’s get a high end one around 2017… it was incredible, for like 4 months, then it started having some issues with lines appearing on and off. It was so quick at first I didn’t think to take action (also in denial). By the time it was bad it was like a year later and the warranty was over. I haven’t needed a tv in years since I’m living with it, but the next one will no longer be a samsung.
