When the grill is hot, the match is on, and the sun peeks through, your outdoor TV needs to match your schedule.
Summer evenings in India offer a unique charm, especially when shared with loved ones at home. Imagine warm breezes, the delicious aroma of grilling food, and refreshing drinks enjoyed on your patio or balcony.
Barbecue season is in full swing, and what could be better than pairing it with an exciting cricket match or a fun comedy show on a big screen, bringing everyone together?
However, simply bringing your indoor TV outside isn’t ideal. Outdoor environments present challenges that regular televisions aren’t built to handle.
Think about competing sounds in lively gatherings, unpredictable weather, and the potential for inconsistent power. Therefore, choosing the right television, even for a balcony or terrace, is essential.
Modern TV technologies, such as Mini LEDs, are designed to handle higher temperatures effectively. This article will help you understand what to look for in an outdoor TV this summer.
Discover how the latest models, with their advanced display and audio features, can transform your backyard barbecue into a fantastic entertainment hub for family and friends.
Best Display Technologies for Outdoor Use
Before delving into specific features, it is helpful to know the types of screen technologies that are suited for outdoor use. The standout is Mini LED, which are known for their brightness, clarity, and color vibrancy.
1. Mini LED: Exact Lighting Control with High-Intensity Illumination
Mini LED technology places control diodes under a flimsy layer of plastic diodes allowing for more control. Consider the following:
- Enhanced picture quality even when surrounding lights are inconsistent
- Best suited for late-night outdoor movie viewings with sophisticated contrast
- Excellent at fast movements as well as depicting shadows
Mini LED TVs give the sense of depth encountered in theaters while watching films, even when placed under the outdoor sky.
BBQ-Ready TV Features
Let’s focus on the specific characteristics that make a TV particularly suited for outdoor viewing, especially during the Indian summer where one seeks immersion with the surrounding light, noise, and multitasks like barbecuing.
Outdoor TV Splitting Features for Summer
1. Sighting Under Bright Contact Light: Dolby Vision IQ
One of the biggest worries outdoors is glare, which is where DV IQ shines most.
- It adjusts the view automatically depending on your light ambient
- So from 4 PM to 8 PM, the viewing adjusts with equal changes
- Screens adjust in real time, and colors remain saturated along with bright details without the need to squint
This is excellent for gatherings where people come over day or night.
2. Blue-Flooding: MEMC 120Hz
Enjoying the IPL on screen with your buddies while outside? You skip the blur effect when it comes to moving borders.
- TVs with MEMC (Motion Estimation Motion Compensation) technology help alleviate motion blur
- MEMC 120Hz on Haier’s Mini LED
- Effortlessly smooth playback without ghosting or jittering, even in fast-paced scenes
- Ideal for fast-moving sports, gaming, and action-packed movies
3. Clear Sound Outdoors: KEF + Harman Kardon + dbx-tv
Outdoor environments are often noisy, filled with sizzling food, conversations, and background sounds. That’s why superior sound technology is crucial.
KEF’s tuning technology brings perfectly balanced tuning, detailed retrieval, and wide applicability. This ensures that even subtle sounds like commentary, music, or dialogue are clear, expressive, and emotional, even in bustling outdoor settings.
Harman Kardon enhances the experience with elevated, crisp treble and deep, elastic bass, making every beat and note distinct without distortion. Meanwhile, dbx-tv audio technology boosts speech clarity and increases overall volume, allowing you to enjoy vibrant, dynamic sound without needing an extra sound system.
Together, KEF, Harman Kardon, and dbx-tv deliver a clear, comfortable, and powerful listening experience outdoors, so you never miss a moment of the action or the conversation.
4. All-in-One Entertainment Hub: Google TV + Game Mode
An outdoor TV should have all the complexity of a regular indoor television.
- Google TV recommends shows and content based on your selected preferences
- You can enjoy recommended shows and content on prominent streaming apps like Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube
- In situations where your hands are full, voice commands make everything accessible
And for gamers:
- Game Mode with VRR and ALLM ensure no delays and smooth execution for consoles
- Perfect for both casual and hardcore console players
5. Multitasking & Storage: 3GB RAM + 32GB ROM
When more users and apps are running concurrently, your TV’s performance should be up to par with the demands.
- With 3GB RAM, you can run multiple tasks without any interruptions
- The 32GB internal storage allows installation of several apps, games, and even offline content
This comes in handy when Wi-Fi is unreliable or overloaded with too many devices during parties.
