    What does it mean that KDL-65W850C has a vesa mount?
    cedric_waters
    over 1 year ago
    A VESA mount is a standard way to attach your TV to a wall mount or stand. If your TV has a VESA mount, it means that it is compatible with wall mounts or stands that follow the VESA standard. The VESA mount is usually located on the back of the TV and is identified by a set of holes spaced a specific distance apart. To use a VESA mount, you'll need to buy a mounting bracket that fits the VESA pattern on your TV and follow the manufacturer's instructions for attaching the bracket to the TV and mounting it on the wall or on a stand. This will help ensure that your TV is securely mounted and won't fall off.
