Samsung's "The Terrace" classes up your outdoor space. It is leaps and bounds above the monitor you drag out to the patio and prop up on a folding table -- it's a mountable, high-end smart TV, with a QLED 4K display and a built-in speaker, that's legitimately intended for outdoor use, come rain or shine.   

"The Terrace" boasts an anti-reflective coating and is rated IP55 for protection against dust and water. That said, it's recommended you keep your TV covered and protected when not in use. 

The TV offers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, works with A.I. assistants like Alexa, and features built-in apps for streamers like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. Download Samsung's SmartThings app to control the TV via your phone or device no matter where you are, and to connect the TV to your other compatible smart-home appliances.

The 83-inch LG OLED TV from the C series is a top-rated option from LG. The smart TV features built-in Google Assistant and Alexa. It currently has an impressive 4.7-star rating on Amazon. It also comes with Brightness Booster, an LG technology that allows for a 20% brighter picture while maintaining accurate black and dark tones.

Unlike LED and QLED TVs, OLED TVs don't have a backlight layer. Instead, each pixel is its own teeny-tiny LED light that can independently adjust luminosity and even turn off completely. Because each pixel functions independently, the TV offers elite image quality -- and the darkest shadows. OLED televisions also tend to be ultra thin. The LG set featured here measures just 2.2 inches thick.

This 4K smart TV with Alexa built in has a 83-inch OLED display with a unique gallery design. The gallery edition is designed to hug the wall and leave little to no space between the wall for a picture-frame-like design (similar to the popular The Frame TV from Samsung). The LG G2 Series TV offers a customized viewing experience by automatically adjusting the color and sound to adapt to different movies, video games, sports games and TV shows.

The Samsung 4K Neo QLED includes top-of-the-line features, including a premium audio technology called object-tracking sound (OTS). With OTS, your television analyzes the action on screen and tries to replicate a surround-sound experience without any external speakers. The Samsung 4K Neo QLED also features a built-in Alexa assistant. 

This TV normally retails for $5,000, but right now you can score a $1,700 discount at Samsung's Labor Day sale.
