Samsung flat screen TV’s


I have purchased 3 large flat screens since 2012 and all of them have died after 3 to 5 years. The last one yesterday, a curved 52inch HD 4K.
The first one began to have serious color aberrations, the second one was strange and turned off and on non-stop. The third (curved) went black, unable to bring up menu, cable fine, sound fine.

Anyone else experience this? Is there a better brand? Bought a Vizio a few years ago which had a beautiful picture but was as fragile as crystal.

Had a 75" Samsung 1080p (2/2014) from Costco that a couple of strips of LEDs went out after about 4 years.  I had the extended warranty with a year left.  They sent me a new one but wouldn't let me upgrade.  So the new one has been running for about 3 years with no problems.
I also have a 65" Samsung 4K curved screen (2/2015) from Costco that doesn't get as much use, but still doing OK.  Every once in a while I have to unplug it for a few minutes to reboot it when it glitches and the remote doesn't work.
