    Good quality, the sound is clear and crisp. Only problem is there was difficulty setting it up. The instructions were a bit confusing and you will need to use your phone for the full manual, it comes with a limited picture manual.

    Well designed and great sound. This soundbar is light, stylish, and works well with our TV. Once we connected it to our TV, it comes on with the TV and uses the TV’s remote for volume. We connected the two via Bluetooth. Comes with wall mounts that we plan to use one a piece of furniture arrives.

    As advertised, this sound bar delivers. It should please all except those that want to have unrealistic base thumping. Great sound at all volume ranges. Only negative thought is the fabric covering which I feel is out of place. However, I heard that Samsung is eliminating that fabric and coming out with a nicer bar in 2022.

    Very good for the money. Purchased this to provide the music for our Chapel on Sunday mornings. Plenty of volume for 40 - 50 people following the lyrics on the TV just above. Truly plug and play with no set up aside from adjusting the volume.

    I would Highly recommend getting this with a new TV. The Sound is really great and probably much better than the onboard package. When you turn the TV on, you will briefly hear the onboard audio, then a very short pause before the sound bar comes on. No big deal as it is very brief.

    Bass is a tad lacking even when turned up all the way but clarity and overall musicality/richness is way better than stock TV sound. Setup was extremely easy and foolproof.

    The Samsung finally designed the sound bar that should’ve been built into the TV! I can’t believe it took them so long but it adds a whole new dimension to our viewing pleasure! Well worth the investment Im glad I bought it during the Black Friday sale

    Had a Sony Soundbar HT-CT100 that lasted me 12 years before it broke. Loved it and checked out what Sony had until I saw this one by Samsung. I got an open box for $140 but when it arrived it looked brand new and I’m pretty sure it was. Soundbar looks nice, is low profile, and the sound quality is as good as my Sony was minus the bass. My only issue with this unit is it doesn’t have an lcd display to let you know what setting your on. Instead it announces the setting verbally. Kind of frustrating to operate at first but since the settings are limited it’s not too bad. Anyway, it does what it should and sounds good.

    This sound bar for the money....so clear and such a great sound for the average living space! And to have that sub sound built in and not have to have the sub placed somewhere else, so amazing!

    Great sound quality and easy connectivity to my Roku tv. Make sure to start off by letting it auto adjust the sound settings to your tv. Do any customizations from there. It really improved the bass quality from the start.
