Same experience here with any Samsung TV made in the last 10 years. I bought a cheap 40" Samsung in 2010 that worked perfect for a decade, but after buying a new one I had problems immediately with it not recognizing inputs, scrambled screen occasionally when I turn it on, and the menu sticking on screen occasionally.
My BIL has gone through probably 4 separate Samsung QLED TVs in the last several years because they keep breaking on him (coincidentally his kids have also been over the last few days doing laundry because their Samsung washer and dryer is broken for the hundredth time).
I also recently bought an LG OLED (C3) and it’s the best TV I’ve ever used.
Samsung products are just pure garbage now and have been on a steady decline over the last 10 years.
