Is this a "new' thing, waterproof outdoor tv?
p.s. I just went to Walmart to look at user reviews and this one was interesting:
1 out of 5 stars review
Verified Purchase
Not truly an outdoor TV
Great bargain for price but doesn't stand up to the outdoor elements. After about a month of owning, condensation started to develop inside screen. Maybe I got a dud but it's not worth the risk or hassle of getting manufacture to repair or replace. Took me two months to finally get a resolution. Stick with the brands that work well in this category.
... to be fair there a number of very positive reviews too, maybe read them, if you are interesting in buying this tv.

I live three houses from the ocean, so salt kills these TVs quick. I've been using cheap $150-$200 TVs outside, which I always need to replace before 2 years. Are outdoor TVs longer lasting the elements, or are they just a lot brighter? I'll be getting a tv cover, which I've never used before, so I'm hoping this also helps with longevity.
FYI The tv will be installed under a patio cover, but there a few hours during the day that the sun is angled with direct sunlight. Not sure if it makes sense to get a full sun vs the partial sun. For $599 vs 2K+, might be worth it.
