    We had an LCD 32 Inch Samsung brought 2008 pa. Still working very good. It's the one in our living room. While yung 32 inch na Sony LED tv namin doesn't par with the picture quality ng samsung na luma. 2015 bought yung Sony.

    i'm not using AVR, surge suppressor, line filter nor grounding.
    i am thinking, our TV has something like those, built in, as it's a multivolt model.
    my still-functioning flat screen CRT TV is over 15 years old.
    i've been lucky, i suppose.
    our TV set is located beside the open window that doesn't get wet, even in strong rain.
    the instruction is to always put these appliances away from heat and wet.

    errr...
    solid capacitors... "XX times longer than ...what?"

    many stores sell gadgets that are supposed to help cool laptop bottoms. personally, i think these gadgets actually work.

    Electrolytic caps are prone to leaks

    Iba parin doc... yung AVR will protect your stuff from surges above 240V. (depending on how good your AVR is, it will either protect your stuff or die trying)

    Mostly related to computer hardware... yung mga electrolytic/fluid capacitors vs solid state capacitors. Most caps are rated in hours at a certain temperature. The solid state capacitors do longer hours...

    Helps primarily if your laptop has poor cooling design to begin with (most common culprits I've seen are some of the dells and hps)

    Mostly seen on the electrolytic capacitor plague era (2000s). Dumami yung gumamit ng solid state capacitors at that time, but I've seen 10-15 year old computer motherboards with normal electrolytic capacitors still being run 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.

    so, are today's electronic gadgets better made, or cheaper (less better) made?
    i mean, choice of materials, and not design.

    Speaking of which...


    Are Sony TVs still any good? There was a time it was the go to brand for TVs. Still remember that they pioneered that PIP which allowed you to watch 2 channels at the same time.

    Now with Samsung and LG smart LED TVs which are full-featured, I don't know if people still buy Sony.

    yes, Sony still is very good. their current A1 series is one if not the best in the tv market today. very expensive nga lang.

    LG uses its OLED screens, Samsung its QLED. and Sony uses oled from LG.
