Hi all,
Just want to post in this group of my personal experience with LG OLED tv.
My LG G3 tv suddenly had a blue line at the bottom of the screen one day and when the LG technician brought the panel to change, he straight away scan all the corner for damage. Seems like its a common occurrence the corner will easily be damaged.
Lo and behold, he found a very very small crackline which I didn't notice before and straight away tell me this is considered as user physical damage, the 5 year warranty is not applicable, out of own pocket repair is 3k for the panel while I purchased the tv for 3.6k only a year ago.
After the technician left, I went online to do some research and it seems that its not an isolated issue when reddit also have a couple of people saying their TV suddenly have crack line at the corner without anyone touching it, LG also refused their warranty claim.
Seems like its an inevitable manufacturing defect which will happen eventually down the road but LG is just brushing it off as "user damage". So if you plan to get LG OLED because of the 5 year warranty, might want to reconsider again because of its fragile nature.
