Suggestions for Buying a 65 inch screen QLED TV

[Panther]

I am planning to buy a 65 inch QLED TV since my 9 years old LG 3D smart TV has started to develop intermittent problems. I check few dealers in an around Pindi / Islamabad and most of them suggested getting TCL model C728 and C825. Whereas I was looking for Samsung. I have also been told that at present Samsung genuine inventory is limited and most of the shops are selling smuggled TVs with shop warranty. Based on above please suggest good brand and model. I would not like to spend more than Rs250K on a TV and it has to be somewhat future proof.

tcl tvs have multiple issues, and don't forget poor aftersales too
check voice of customer FB group. in search, type "tcl" and result, group is flooded with tv complaints
in short, avoid tcl tvs

My experience with samsung has been below par and at most you get only one year warranty. Same case with Sony Panasonic etc.

On the contrary, the experiences with TCL have been better. A friend using 65” 4k tv for two year without any issues. I myself have bought TCL 65” C725 and havent come across any issues so far. My biggest and only reason to go with it was 3 years extended warranty. Sony and samsung 4Ks had better quality, no doubt but it wasn't a deal breaker for me.

I, personally, will never spend 200/300k or more on a tv which which comes with one year warranty only.

Now that's getting complicated. I had almost made up my mind to go for TCL but those reviews on Facebook are really amazing. On a side note, I guess customer service is a weakest link for any brand.
