Projectors & Other TVsSamsung Support Reps Please Help. My UN65AU8000FXZA Smart TV is glowing and feels really hot on the lower left bottom corner of the screen. It gets extremely hot after only a couple of hours of watching tv. So hot, it burns your hand if you touch it. I am honestly afraid that it is going to start a fire and burn my house down. This is a fire waiting to happen. I am afraid to use this TV as the heat makes it feel very unsafe. Additionally the right half of the TV screen seems dimmer.
I have noticed many other people in the US and EU reporting exactly the same issue with several different models.
I purchased this TV on January 4, 2022 and have used it moderately, not overused or ever used to an extreme number of hours at a time.
The model is the Samsung - 65" Class 8000 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Tizen TV - UN65AU8000FXZA
I have 3 other Samsung TVs in my home, some much older, and have not had this problem with them.
Please help, I don't want my house to burn down from watching TV.
