That's certainly not what we like to hear, @Guoning WU! Are you still having this issue with your TV? If so, could you send us a photo to show the issue?

Hi ChrisM,

I have the same problem, I bought my Samsung TV 2 years ago, I was watching basketball the other night and 1/3 of the screen turned black. I went to touch the back of the TV and it was extremely hot I could not even keep my hand on the back of the tV. Then I tried to watch it yesterday again same thing, but the funny thing is that the dark part switched as I was watching from left side of the TV to the right of it. I went to touch the bottom back of it again and the heating area had moved from the left to the right of the TV just like the dark shade. My TV model is the UN85AU8000FXZC... Any recommendation ? T
