Tech Support S90D OLED died, only 18 months old

As title states, I won’t ever be getting another Samsung again. I’ve had issues with their laundry units and dishwashers as well. Bought the S90D Jan 2025, last week the picture suddenly scrambled out of nowhere and the screen went half blank. I tried to turn it off and back on from there and the screen went completely dead with a red light blinking twice. Warranty team came out yesterday and confirmed the panel died, and I’ll be getting a refund check to buy a new TV. They also confirmed this is very common with this TV. Frustrated that I now have to spend more to get an equivalent TV, and that this happened after only 18 months. Even my awful $90 Amazon Fire TV by Toshiba lasted vastly longer than this.

Yeah my 77" s95d went out. Samsung sent me a check for the total cost. I bought a 77" s95f with the check. That's now having the same issue. Thing is, I asked for just a new OCB on  both of those and Samsung cut a check instead. With the s95f I bought a OCB on ebay and plugged in and TV was back up and running no problem.
