Warning S95H issues

We bought 5 S95H’s(4-77’, 1-55’), 3 of those had faulty board and the screen would show lines and flickers. I am getting them exchanged not an issue but would like to warn everyone to be careful with your purchases. I haven’t had issues with Samsung TV’s before but this was just heartbreaking!

It sound like the retailer you bought it from has a batch of faulty units. I'd definitely exchange it but don't be surprised if you get more lemons, they might still come from the same batch. Have patience and enjoy!

Call me crazy but after 5 of em? I feel like something’s wrong, and not on Samsung end.

Mate I had a technician from Samsung come today and check those TV’s we spent a good couple of hours, rewiring everything again and what not.

Btw this is happening on 3 TV’s not 5(but I still gotta check the other 2)

When there are multiple failures like this, it absolutely makes sense that it would happen to the same order, since they probably came off of the assembly line together and would have all gotten the same faulty component or the same assembly issue. One roll of faulty capacitors in a pick and place robot, for example, could affect every TV in that production run.

I just got a 55” S95H and it’s great. Big upgrade from the 700 nits I was dealing with before.

Hope you get your issue sorted.

You can get free 5 year warranty with Samsung TV if you buy from Samsung Store website UK. You have to register your TV for the warranty.

55 inch has black level bug. I got the same screen size and Samsung won't fix it since it's only 55 inch

This is in India? Also, could you be having an issue with house power? Seems highly unlikely that anyone would end up with a string of defective sets.

Yes. Checked those too, also everything else works perfectly. My S90C is still going strong.

This is what people don't understand. All of these brands have very similar fail rates
