If you live in the U.S. and buy an electronics item from say, Singapore, you will probably have a less generous warranty. It;s best to buy major electronics in the country where you stay.
i completely agree....i bought the tv in october in india & then earlier this month i was in dubai & checked the prices there....it turned out to be much cheaper....i felt bad for a minute but then realised that the effort of carting it back to india & the limited warranty was just not worth it....
