We were streaming a show, and while watching a black spot appeared on the bottom left and stretched out throughout the screen. It seemed to still be on but nothing worked-using the remote, trying to turn it off/on manually, unplugging, etc. 

When I plug it back in, it goes from black to dark blue ā€œonā€ and off every few seconds. Turning on any connected items like our Switch or DVD player didnā€™t change anything. 

I know Iā€™m out of warranty-I purchased my TV in 2021.

Time to get a new Smart TV with extended warranty.

Same thing just happened to me, and Samsung support was not helpful. They basically just said I should buy a new TV. But right before this my TV updated so I'm pretty sure it was the update that's caused this.
