Q: QuestionSo I did a simple google search for “Black Friday outdoor TVs” and the first link was to this TV. It clearly states “outdoor TV” but in the specifications it says “indoor”. So is this indoor only or outdoor as well? What temps are we working with here?

Asked 3 years ago by JoeBirds.

• A:Answer Google has been ruined by SEO ads- if it doesn't explicitly say "outdoor TV" in the description here or on Sony's site, I would not risk cold temps with this TV since LEDs can be damaged by cold.

Q: Questionwhy doesn't my yellow video cable plug fit in the video jack on the tv

Asked 3 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer I assume you have an RCA-type pin plug for your composite video signal. The Sony TV jack requires a 3.5 mm 3-conductor plug that can accommodate video and 2-channel audio. A cable that converts these is readily available.

Q: QuestionI use my smart phone as a hotspot for internet to connect my laptop, tablet, printer and in my car; I can I use my phone's blue tooth connection hotspot to use with this television?

Asked 1 year ago by Dogpilot.

• A:Answer Hi Dogpilot, Thanks for the question! You may use your cellphone data to stream apps on the TV using mobile hotspot. It is the same as how you are connecting your smart TV to WIFI wirelessly. However, this may lead to data overcharges or slow internet connection when data usage is reached. This can quickly burn through a cellphone data plan if not careful. Additional information: Enjoy an intuitive smart TV experience with natural color and clear sound with the BRAVIA X80K LED TV. The powerful 4K HDR Processor X1 reduces digital noise and boosts details for lifelike picture quality. Google TV gives you access to all your favorite streaming apps, while Google Assistant easily searches for content and controls your smart home simply by using your voice. We really appreciate you being a loyal customer and helping to share the word about us. Hope this helps! - Kris

Q: QuestionIs the power cable rated for in the wall use?

Asked 2 years ago by Mike704.

• A:Answer Hi Mikem704, Avoid running power cables inside of walls. It's actually against article 400.8 in the NEC (National Electrical Code). You should not run power cables through a wall as a substitute for permanent wiring, i.e. wired outlets.

Q: QuestionCan you attach a center stand on the tv.

Asked 1 year ago by Lao.

• A:Answer Hi Lao, Thanks for the question! Yes, you can. However we do not recommend using a third-party TV stand as we cannot guarantee its stability and may cause the TV set to topple over, fall down, and cause personal injury or damage to the TV. We recommend the use of the supplied TV stand because it is designed for the TV stability which is essential when you want to be assured of the safety of your TV. The KD55X80K can also use multiple TV mounts that support a VESA pattern of 11 13/16 x 11 13/16 in(300 × 300 mm). Sony offers a flush mount TV bracket designed to mount the TV flush to the wall (SU-WL855). Sony strongly suggest that the installation of our TV on a wall be performed by qualified professionals.
