Great outdoor TV! Anti-glare and easy viewing even in full sun.
We previously tried the Roku + Element outdoor TV (half the price) and that allowed moisture in (ruined after 1 week) and had a ton of glare. After installing this TV and viewing in 100+ degree weather (Houston summer) with glare coming from the pool, I have no issues seeing the TV even with sunglasses on.
Concerning moisture, the Roku outdoor TV was "rated" for even greater water resistance, but allowed in moisture after only 1 week in the humid and rainy Houston outdoors. This TV in contrast has already survived many rainstorms with no cover on and high winds. Absolutely a great purchase - was expensive but the end result is very worth it in my opinion.
Note- We also got a "Condo Mount" TV mount due to the ability to move it between posts on our Pergola. Works great and also held up to the windy environment from the storm! This TV is close to it's weight rating so I was a bit worried, but it works great.
Absolutely recommend this TV to anyone who is looking for an outdoor TV that would typically have glare issues.

I am pleasantly surprised at the viewability of this TV in full sun, especially considering the affordable price. This TV is rugged, yet stylishly designed. I also installed a Furrion Soundbar and swivel mount. Both are a must. You can also connect it to your Sonos or any other Bluetooth outdoor speaker/device. I connected my TV to my Hot Springs Hot Tub's built-in speaker system. I swivel my Furrion so I can view it while soaking in the spa. The swivel towards my pool when I want to cool off. I thought I was going to need to use my 12 ft umbrella to shade the TV in order to view but that was not necessary at all. The color contrast is not as deep as the Samsung or Sunbrite outdoor TVs but it is still very good, Again, you have to keep in mind that you are paying double to quadruple for those brands. You can get a regular indoor Samsung QLED that has been weatherized by Mirage-Vision for a few hundred more than the Furrion. It may offer a little bit better picture, but those TVs are standard indoor TVs that have been tuned up for the outdoors. I don't know if they will hold up. I would consider those if my TV was going to be sheltered under a terrace, but I installed mine next to my pool facing south. It's going to get beat on by the elements. Furrion is purpose built for the outdoors. It has a heavy-duty construction and extremely strong range extending WIFI antennas. Furrion's customer service is excellent. They answered the phone right away and answered all my questions on. They expressed that they would back their product 100 percent. I get the feeling they will do so much like Weber does for their BBQ grills. This TV is hopefully going to force the other brands to bring down their prices. There is no need to spend so much money on a TV. Outdoor TV's should be affordable to everyone. It's a great way to bring the family together while enjoying the outdoors. My family used to coupe themselves up inside on a beautiful summer day so they can watch their shows or sports game. Now we spend much more time in the pool and hottub.

This TV has been outside for less than a month, mounted on my wall under a covered roof and has moisture accumulating under the screen.

Great for reflection handling and using in an outdoor patio and actually be able to see the TV without squinting!

Worst tv

Tv is advertised as full sun outdoor tv. We installed these tvs in our beer garden and the sun causes black blobs to move around the screen. After contacting customer support, they say that the tv is not truly full sun and will only work in the shade or inside. Complete waste of money since the tvs are literally installed OUTSIDE!!!
