Notes

Mini-LED TVs are usually kept until backlight, power, or mainboard issues make repair uneconomical. Roku's Pro Series is a 120Hz Mini-LED QLED set, often used as the main family-room TV where high daily hours accelerate wear.

Repairs that frequently push costs up include power board replacement, backlight/LED driver work, or mainboard swaps (HDMI/processing failures. If the panel is intact and the issue is a power board or Wi-Fi module, repair can be reasonable when the TV is still 'midlife'.

If you see vertical lines, widespread dead pixels, or panel damage, replacement is typically the safer call. Price is taken from Roku's current Pro Series pricing.
