    What does the "vesa mount" feature mean?
    marissa_thiel
    over 1 year ago
    A VESA mount is a standard mounting interface for attaching a display device, such as a TV, to a wall mount or stand. The term "VESA" stands for "Video Electronics Standards Association," which is a trade organization that sets standards for the display industry.
