With its weatherproofed materials, the Sunbrite Outdoor TV is one of the best outdoor TVs on the market. It can withstand extreme weather, and is perfect for watching sports and your favorite shows outside. Just note that this unit (the Signature Series) is best for partial sun; checkout the Veranda Series for full shade and the Pro Series for full sun. Before we go into details, check other options in our list of the best TVs in the market.

Performance/Display/Resolution/Refresh

The Sunbrite TV has an anti-glare screen that makes it perfect for watching in indirect sunlight, and is way brighter than typical indoor TVs. It’s a 4K UHD TV with an LED backlight, giving it a surprisingly clear and sharp picture quality you won’t find with indoor TVs. It’s a commercial-grade TV, withstanding a wide temperature range from -22F to 122F. And it supports HDR content for gorgeous picture quality. Compare it to a more traditional indoor TV, the LG CX OLED.

Sound

This Sunbrite outdoor television includes a 20W detachable soundbar that is surprisingly loud and good audio quality.

Smart Features

The Sunbrite is not a smart TV; however, many Amazon reviewers added a Roku stick to the waterproof media case to add streaming capabilities. If you’re looking for a TV with built-in smart features, check out the Sony XBR65X900F.

Ports/Expandability

This TV has 2 HDMI ports, as well as a waterproof media cabinet which helps protect the TV’s ports from sand and water. That means you can play from different devices and consoles without worrying about damage or external cords.

Value

Because it is fully weatherproof and temperature-controlled the Sunbrite Outdoor TV is sold at a premium. Its internal components are rust-proof, and are fully protected from dust, insects, and rain. The real value is this TV’s long lifespan. And Sunbrite also offers a two-year warranty. If you’re looking for a physically solid TV that you don’t have to replace for many years, then Sunbrite is for you. But if you’re looking for something cheaper, then check out the Furrion TV.

Sunbrite Outdoor TV Wrap Up

If you want a TV to permanently install in your partially shaded backyard, then definitely check out Sunbrite. You’ll love watching sports on your deck or just chilling with your favorite TV shows in the hottub. It has a great anti-glare screen, and can withstand extremely hot and extremely cold temperatures. The biggest drawback is the price, but if you want to install it and leave it for years, then you really can’t go wrong.
