Most LCD/Plasma TVs last for a few years before problems such as loss of color, brightness, black spots begin to show. The life expectancy of an LCD/LED TV can be between 4 to 10 years depending on usage and maintenance as well as other factors such as type, brand, location and environment. Branded TVs from multinational companies such as Sony, Samsung or LG tend to last longer as the hardware components used in the TVs are more expensive and thus more reliable. In general,
the life expectancy of an LCD or LED TV is a few years after the expiration of the warranty.
