Absolutely disgusting behaviour from an official Samsung technician who swipes a exacto knife on a customers TV to void his warrenty.

I woke up from a nap, watch the first minute of this and said to myself. Damn, Louis Rossmann needs to see this, then the chad appeared on the screen like a genie

Jokes on you, I always assume that these days, from all of the manufacturers. It's why Samsung lost out on a fridge sale a few years ago and as it turns out that was the best decision possible.

I bought a Samsung washing machine in 2016 and it died in 2020. They sent someone to repair it within a week at no charge. It’s still going now, so I think it worked? Anyways YMMV

People have had a really bad time with the refrigerators dying and Samsung not wanting to do anything about it.

I’ve also had a Samsung fridge for 6 years and haven’t had a problem with it. But again, this is anecdotal.

One thing I suspect is that it depends on which country we're talking about
