These websites provide a list of confirmed Bluetooth keyboards. Please check this link below for more details:

A:AnswerThis tv is not too be used outdoors. It's not weather proof.
As far as the speakers and sound, you will not find a tv with better sound. Sounds wonderful.
Has preset for 4 apps, Disney, Utube, Prime and Netflix.
I don't know anything about the 50"
A:AnswerHi JoeG, Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, it is still considered as an Android TV as it uses the Android™️ Operating System. Google announced that the Android TV™ branding will change to Google TV™
I hope this helps!

A:AnswerHello, Thank you for the inquiry. You can install a web browser to this TV from the Google Play Store. However, the full function does not guarantee. The X80J supports Chromecast built-in.
Chromecast lets you cast your favorite videos, games, and apps from your mobile device, in full quality, to your Chromecast built-in TV. Just one tap of the Cast button on your Android or iOS screen is all you need to supersize the things you love. Cast your content then continue browsing on your phone or tablet. Chromecast's built-in compatibility is dependent on the app. I hope this helps! Jay
A:AnswerHi Susan, Great News! Yes, the X80J can connect to the cable/satellite box. For the connection guide, please check the link below for your reference:

A:AnswerHi Juju57, Thank you for your inquiry! The TV has built-in applications like Netflix and YouTube and has an android based operating system which will let you install additional apps even without the Roku Box. If you still need to, you can connect the Roku device on the HDMI input of the TV. Roku usually needs HDMI to connect to and utilize its streaming capability. I hope this helps! -Carl

A:AnswerHi Gamerman72, Thank you for your inquiry! There is much confusion about the HDMI versions and concerns about compatibility. For this reason, we do not promote the HDMI versions incorporated on many of our products. Instead, we advertise the features of a product that are associated with a particular HDMI version. The only HDMI 2.1 feature supported by this model is eARC. For expanded features like 4K 120hz, VRR and ALLM, we apologize but there's no plan to have these added via future software update you may want to check our X900H, and X85J series the 4k 120hz is available after a software update on the X900H and there are plans to add the VRR and ALLM features in future updates. The X85J supports 4k 120 ALLM and there are plans to add VRR in future updates. You may also check our article https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00246472 for more information. I hope this helps! -Carl
