I bought a 47" Samsung TV and Amazon added reviews from all different subversions (basically sizes) into one score. Turns out the 32" version was known to be faulty after 2 years of use, while all other versions were fine. Logically there were tons of bad reviews for the 32" version. |
The subpar score probably caused you to look into the reviews and see what it was all about though right?
Before making your purchase you learned that the manufacturer has had issues with similar products being defective in the past. It's good information to know even if it doesn't relate to your specific TV.
Maybe they shouldn't bundle all those products together. I don't know enough about TVs to make an informed statement about that. Devil's Advocate for a minute though, there probably are similarities between the 48 inch model and the 50 inch model of many TVs. And sometimes manufacturers make minor revisions.
The question comes down to whether it is more helpful to give consumers a general statement about Samsung XYZ 700 series TVs as a starting point, or whether it is more helpful to sub-divide the XYZ 700a, 700b, and 700c and risk giving customers almost zero information on the 700c when 95% of the 700a and 700b comments would be applicable and so on.
I bet someone at Amazon is getting paid a lot of money to try to figure this out right now.
