From smart to short-lived: Why your TV might not last as long as you think

As Indian households increasingly embrace the allure of smart TVs, a surprising trend has emerged that might make consumers think twice before making their next big purchase. A recent LocalCircles survey has uncovered that one in three households is grappling with TV troubles much sooner than anticipated, often within just five years of bringing home their sleek, new sets.

The findings, based on responses from over 36,000 consumers across 329 districts in India, highlight concerns about the longevity and reliability of modern TVs, particularly smart TVs.
