Our lanai TV has Bluetooth. We bought a Bluetooth speaker that we put in between us when we are watching it so we have the audio right near us and can keep the volume low enough so the neighbors can't hear it but we can. Works great.

Our TV had a problem while still under warranty. When the repairman took it apart to fix it, we could see some rusted metal components and he mentioned these TVs are not intended for outdoor use. So, I think going on the less expensive side is a good idea as long as it has the features you need. Ours also has wifi so we can get Netflix and others.
