DuraPro - Partial Sun Smart Series 55" Class LED Outdoor Partial Sun 4K UHD Smart webOS TV (2023)

Very disappointed with this purchase. The best part of this is that it was delivered 4 days earlier than initially estimated. That's where any positive review stops. (HARD STOP!). The TV had a few abrasions on the top corners which wasn't initially an issue. As I was deciding where this would be mounted I placed it on my deck in partial sun (fairly cloudy day). The first issue I noticed is that the cover glass makes this TV VERY reflective as my images indicate. And it wasn't just the sunlight but the ambient light as well. As I prepared the mount for the TV I let the TV remain powered on to better understand the reflectivity. After about an hour I was ready to hang the TV but then the rain started. What happened next was completely unexpected... The heat generated by the TV was great enough so when the rain hit it, the interior portion of the cover glass fogged up. I then decided I would see how long that took to dissipate. I wiped it dry (see images) and then turned it back on only to see once the rain began again, more condensation came back. I spoke with a friend who installs pro-displays and he stated that this was an inherent problem with the design of this TV. Whether it is or isn't, I am very disappointed in what I purchased. Now I have a TV bracket mounted on the exterior of my home and not sure if the TV is worth even putting up as this will clearly happen every time the atmosphere is cooler than the TV. And since it runs hot, I'm not sure what I will do. No matter what I have (4) holes in my house with an empty bracket. At this point, I am now irritated with the marring found at the top corners as well, even though they probably wouldn’t be seen when mounted due to height. This specific TV was purchased based on the reviews here on Best Buy. I should have read those more closely as there appears to be multiple reviews with the same verbiage. How does THAT happen? I'll probably give it a week or so and determine whether it’s worth a return. For something I was planning on being a focal point of backyard entertainment, it sure has turned into a giant headache. Is the manufacturer even aware of their design drawback? And probably the biggest laugh I had was the "weatherproof" plastic bag you are to place the remote in to keep it away from water. The "bag" falls apart every time you open it up and it doesn't allow you to use the voice control nor the scroll wheel, which may not even be an issue if and when I decide to return this hunk of junk. Buyer beware. I would gladly pay an extra $700~$1000 for an Outdoor BUILT FOR THE OUTDOORS!!! Signed – Irritated customer (!!!)

Great purchase! Outstanding picture quality and great sound. Makes our outdoor living area the perfect extension of our home.

purchased for Super Bowl. VERY heavy, and larger than I thought. ya I saw 55 inches, but it is huge.. Men sat at the back porch drinking and doing what we do. women in the living room not watching a single play. the unit must be wall mounted. the mounting system is not the best. the anchor bolts will not work, they are not rated for the weight so I purchase high loaded bolts. because it is sealed for outside use, hook all the connect wires first or you will be taking that 85lb tv down. USB, HDMI cables, etc.
