Our Picks
Indoor TV Outside = Disaster
Indoor TVs are not weatherproof. They fail within months from humidity, condensation, temperature swings. Outdoor TV is required if you want it to last.
Brightness Matters
1500+ nits for partial sun. 3000+ nits for direct sun. Indoor TVs are 250-500 nits — useless outside in daylight.
Mounting
304 stainless steel mount required (anything else rusts). Soundbar option highly recommended — outdoor TV speakers are limited.
