Samsung Unveils Terrace Outdoor 4K TV and Soundbar

Sure, we’ve been home for the past few months, and some of us are just starting to make our first tentative forays into the outside world. The problem is, we’ve become completely addicted to watching TV in the interim and are now going to need bigscreen sets in our backyards as well. All of which makes Samsung’s announcement of its first outdoor TV and soundbar especially timely.

The Terrace is an LCD Ultra HDTV with a direct full-array LED backlight that supports the HDR10+ and HDR10 formats and features Samsung’s Quantum Processor 4K for upscaling. Available in 75-, 65-, and 55-inch screen sizes, it comes with the company’s Tizen Smart TV platform, which provides all the usual streaming app suspects along with Samsung TV Plus, a free service with over 120 channels. Voice control options include Bixby and Amazon Alexa, with support for Google Assistant soon to come.

A TV needs to deliver ample brightness to compete with sunlight in an outdoor environment. According to Samsung, the Terrace is rated for a whopping 2,000 nits, and it also features an anti-reflective coating and the company’s Wide Viewing Angle tech to improve image uniformity when viewing from off-center seats. The solid metal design display has an IP55 rating, making it resistant to both water and dust. Along with its HDMI inputs, connectivity options include Wi-Fi and HDBaseT, plus a Bluetooth output to send audio to a soundbar or wireless speaker.

The Terrace soundbar matches the rugged cosmetics of the outdoor TV and is also IP55-rated. According to Samsung, the three-channel bar has “outdoor optimized sound,” with distortion cancelling technology to enhance bass and a “wide-range tweeter” to even out sound distribution. Audio connection options include optical digital, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. Both a wall mount and a Terrace TV mount that attaches directly to the set are included.
