These Are The 5 Best and Brightest Outdoor TVs For Every Occassion
- Perfect for business owners and outdoor commercial spaces
- Bright enough, even in direct sunlight
- Speakers with Dolby Atmos audio
- Not as many viewing angles as the QLED upgrade
If you want a full-on, full-sun, fully outdoor TV, this is the best—and literally the brightest—of the bunch. For as much as we love The Terrace TVs from Samsung, the full-sun versions start at $5K. Even the smallest, most on-sale ones still go for the cost of two of these. For the average consumer (who can’t write off a TV as a business expense), the Pool Pro is the outdoor TV to get for your home.
At 2000 nits max brightness, this display won't run into any issues with brightness on most standard weather days. Not a half bad 4K display, all things considered. And it can weather, well, weather. The TV will operate in temps between -22 to 122°F and it's IP55 rated against water and dust. One of our favorite little touches is the remote. Which is also waterproof.
In terms of deficiencies, there isn't a whole lot to speak of. It sounds fine—with built-in support for Dolby Atmos surround sound— but a soundbar or an outdoor speaker setup will do a lot to bring the audio output up to par with the image. And the screen is only an LCD, so you can't get the viewing angles you could from an indoor OLED for example. If you want something with wider viewing angles, you can opt for the QLED upgrade.
