43" TV recommendation

[FileZAce81]

Hi, Any recommendations for 43" TV? Budget less than 1k. Hope for matte/semi-matte screen. Mostly for my parents to watch local TV channels and sometimes movies. Old Sony TV only last 6 yrs (breakdown after 3 yrs warranty, repair once).

Hisense E6N or Q6N
LG NANO80A or QNED82ASA
Samsung QEF1 or Q8F
Sony X75K
Toshiba E330R or E450R (50", Mom: buy so big later eyes spoilt ah)

Which of this model are more reliable?

Does Philips TV colour still fades off a few years later? Their colour are prone to fades off faster.

Not sure, do note that issues are usually model-specific and not brand-specific

Samsung Art TV with an anti-glare matte screen but brightness is limited.

The Frame 43" TV price is almost the same as Qn90f 43" which is also matte screen, almost twice my budget.

Went to HN to see LG qned82 and Samsung q8f, was told colour for qned82 is not good as q8f. Was told price for q8f is 1.1k ++ with HN 4th & 5th year warranty. Should I get the extended HN warranty?

It is for Art lovers, family photos, sweet memories with a Built-in Smart TV Computer for displays when the TV is off, so paying a big premium.

The Warranty is good to get
