Hi my 2 month old TV has started or I just started to notice vertical bands of shade in the lighter colours. This is visible on white and blue quite noticeable now I see it all the time. Ihave attached an image.

I see there's a fix/ bulletin  for the q75s over on the American forums

 Try a picture test on your TV,

 

Settings > Support > Self Diagnosis > Picture Test.

That's good news, @Maughanorama. The engineer will be able to inspect the TV and repair any existing issues with the device. Let us know if you have any questions or queries in the meantime.

I'm pleased to hear that the engineer was able to identify the issue, @Maughanorama. Samsung offer a repair warranty so they will always look to complete a repair where it is viable to do so. Replacements are only offered when a a device is deemed to be beyond repair due to a manufacturing defect.
