Thanks to technological advancements, the cost of many types of televisions has decreased significantly, making it possible to own a 65-inch 4K UHD TV for under 8 million VND. Some stores even offer 100-inch TVs at affordable prices.
There are warnings for consumers buying cheap TVs.

However, the question is: Will these inexpensive TVs last a long time, especially when they are packed with features? While many other tech devices are frequently replaced, TVs have an average lifespan of 5 to 10 years.
Nevertheless, many consumers still feel that modern TVs are not as durable as older models. For example, one user shared their experience of owning a 27-inch Panasonic CRT TV from 2001, while two new 65-inch TCL TVs purchased in November 2023 broke down after only one year of use.
The cheaper the TV, the faster it breaks down.
According to experts, users can expect a TV lifespan of around 45,000 hours. Higher-end models, such as those from LG, can last up to 100,000 hours. However, cheaper TVs often use lower-quality components, leading to a higher failure rate, especially in the power supply and integrated software.

For a better viewing experience, users should consider non-smart TV models, often referred to as "hotel" TVs. These models allow users to easily add streaming devices to watch free apps and channels. While inexpensive TVs from smaller brands may look appealing, users should invest more in a high-quality TV for the main living room, while cheaper options can be chosen for other spaces such as bedrooms or garages.
The rise of inexpensive televisions is gradually turning the industry into a consumable item, encouraging users to upgrade after a few years. This may lead to higher profits for companies, but it also poses a challenge for consumers in choosing durable and reliable products.
