The salesman said it is about 5 years calculated on usage of 4 hours per day. He said the LED components will start to burn out similar to a LED bulb used in your home. He said the picture will eventually start to lose its contrast as they start burning out. I did read that some older LED Samsung TVS were rated at 100,000 hours. I still own a plasma TV that was purchased 12 years ago and the picture still looks like the day I bought it. You may try calling Samsung to see if there is anything in their specs Good Luck,
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.How do you expect anyone to be able to answer this question? It's an electronic device made up of thousands of man-made components and any one of them could could die tomorrow or 10 years from tomorrow or any time in between. There's not like a Toyota Camry of TV manufacturers so you just throw down and hope for the best like the rest of us and buy the extended warranty if the piece of mind is worth that many dollars to you. i also find it helpful to google things like "samsung tv custumer service" and then the same for other brands to try and get a sense for what it's like dealing with these companies if anything does go wrong. All that said, I've had a blissfully problem-free samsung for many years so when it came time to decide between this tv or the comparable Vizio (P66-F1), some brand loyalty definitely played into the decision to go with this one. For what it's worth, I very much like it.
