Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the HW-Q950A soundbar's exceptional sound quality, easy setup, and immersive Dolby Atmos experience. The bass and surround sound are particularly impressive, and the rear speakers enhance the overall audio experience. While some users find the price to be high, many believe it is a worthwhile investment. The top display and Alexa integration could be improved, and the remote control needs some enhancements.

    Bad Experience

    I bought a 75” Q60 a while back and decided I needed I better sound bar to make up for open area in my living room. I decided to buy the Q950A Soundbar to go with my Samsung TV. I like to start off by saying that Samsung sound bars have always been my favorite but as for this one in general I’m frustrated with it. Set up was easy. I tried HDMI connection didn’t work. Tried Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, optical didn’t work. Reset the system and tried again and no sound. What’s even more frustrating is I bought the soundbar at one best buy location and had to drive almost an hour across town to pick it up at another Best Buy location. Lost time, gas just to get home and to be disappointed. I will be returning this item today due to it not working out the box. Could be a defective item but long story short was very disappointed after this whole experience. Hopefully BestBuy can make it rite. Wish I could of posted a review about how amazing this product was. Unfortunately it is not the case.

    After trying a few other sound bars, this gave us the full range of sound and bass we were looking for. The surround sound leaves us chilled and spooked out during horror movies.

    Blows away my old Samsung soundbar. This one actually works with all of the streaming apps, which the old soundbar did not. Absolutely amazing sound even on a very low volume.
