Hi everyone,
So I’ve had this tv for about 14 months now. Never had any issues with it until maybe a couple of months ago when I noticed some slight vertical banding issues, it was only in a couple of areas on the tv at first but it seems to have got worse and worse since then and on bright red/orange scenes is visible across the whole of the screen and really quite distracting.
Having read up a bit about vertical banding it seems to usually effect grey scenes but it seems worse for me on bright redish coloured scenes as mentioned above.
I don’t know if it’s just a coincidence but it seems to have got visibly worse after every time a pixel refresher cycle has run.
I’ve attached a few pictures, it’s quite hard to notice in some but it’s very visible to the naked eye.
It came with a 5 year guarantee - should I just phone the store and see if I can get a replacement?
