    Not happy at all I’ve tried several times to connect with the app. No luck makes it impossible to connect my sub because you need to do it through the app big downfall!

    We purchased the BOSE sound bar, with a sub woofer and wireless speakers, to connect to our LG OLED TV. While the sound quality was excellent (thus the 1 star) it was practically useless with the LG TV. It was set up multiple times and would work for a day or so, and then stop working. We returned the entire system and opted for an LG sound system that works flawlessly with our TV.

      Hello Edward,

      I am very sorry to hear about the connectivity issues you have experienced with your Smart Ultra Soundbar and LG TV. What you are describing seems to be related to the HDMI CEC, so adjusting these settings would have helped and made the connection between the two devices smoother.
      I am sorry you have decided to return your soundbar due to these problems.

      Best regards, Lau - Bose Customer Support bose

    I have had this for less than seven months. Now it is stuck in a software update loop. There’s no way to reset it. I read many many articles about many of the Bose sound bar products getting stuck in the loop. The only thing I can do is call and send it in to be fixed. I wish I could return this and buy a different brand. This is ridiculous!

      Hello David,

      It is odd that you're having trouble with the Soundbar updating, but I'd love to help with that. If your wifi network details haven't changed, then please try placing the Soundbar into recovery mode following the instructions here: https://bose.life/4h0bhve
      Once it has completed recovery mode please follow the same steps again to ensure that it completes the recovery process.
      Please also reach out to us as we'd love to help you with this: https://bose.life/contact

    The product has major sync issues when using HDMI arc to connect to TV. It does not turn on automatically. The app is confusing and has too many features that are hard to understand for an ordinary person. There are hardly any useful buttons on the soundbar. No power on indicator on the bar. The volume on TV does not have a number and only plus minus signs show. Will not be buying a Bose product again.

    The sound is not that good as compared to Sonos Arc Ultra and Sennheiser Ambeo Plus. When I first plugged it in I couldn't notice the difference between sound of my TV vs sound from Bose Smart Ultra. May be with a full 5.1 system it may be better, but if you are just looking for a soundbar this may not be the one.

      Hello, I do have some recommendations that can help, if you are not finding the sound quality to not be as expected. Firstly, I highly recommend that you run the AdaptIQ program to ensure that your soundbar is fully calibrated to your room. You can follow the steps for the AdaptIQ process here: https://bose.life/48D4JiE.
      Secondly, the soundbar does come with a built-in equalizer that can be accessed via the Bose app. To view more on this, you can check this article out: https://bose.life/4hOKe7r.

      Should you need additional support with any features on the headphones, please contact our technical support team who will be happy to assist you. You can find their contact information here: https://bose.life/3rykPZR. Liam - Bose Customer support bose
