Guide for Replacing a TV Screen
Here’s a quick breakdown to help you decide whether Buying a New TV or Replacing a TV Screen is the better option:
---
#1. Replacing the TV Screen (Panel Replacement)
Pros:
- Might be cheaper
- Keeps your existing TV features/settings.
Cons:
- Very expensive — screen cost can be 70–90% of the price of a new TV.
- Replacement panels are often hard to find, especially for newer or less common models.
- Most repair centers recommend against screen replacements unless it’s a premium model.
---------------------------------------------------
#2. Buying a New TV
Pros:
- Better Value in most cases — you get new warranty, updated features, and better technology.
- Latest models come with better display technology, energy efficiency, and smart TV functions.
- Promotions and deals (e.g. at Hisense Showroom Tanzania) often make new TVs more affordable.
Cons:
- Might be more expensive upfront compared to simple fixes (if panel was somehow cheap).

#Best Option:
If your TV is Out of Warranty and the screen is damaged, it’s usually better to buy a new TV, especially with current price drops and technological improvements.
