Customers are saying

Customers value the Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos for its unmatched sound quality, ease of use, and simple setup. The soundbar's compact size, impressive bass, and Dolby Atmos capabilities are also appreciated. However, some customers have reported occasional connectivity issues, and a few find the soundbar to be somewhat expensive and would prefer it to include a physical remote.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    The Sonos Beam (Gen 2) has added aa great sound dimension to my Sony Smart TV. The sound quality is off the charts and there is no distortion with increased volume. The installation was easy to accomplish in a matter of seconds. The excellent value was reflected in a very fair price. We are very pleased that we purchased the Gen 2.

    I’ll have to admit before I pulled the trigger I was hesitant because of its hefty price tag, but the sound is distinctively—different! So crystal clear, great contrast, and excellent sound overall and the ability to add speakers later down the road.

    Needed a new current sound bar. This came recommended, but the price was above my desired range. Glad I extended my range. A movie we watched, wow, GREAT sound including Base!

    I really like the sound of this sound bar, it just doesn’t work well. What i mean is that, it frequently doesn’t work when im streaming. I have to exit the app then go back into it a few times before it finally works. Its a bit annoying.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I would gice this product 5 stars, if the software worked alongside other products more seamlessly. Unfortunately unless you have a perfect internet connection with low ping, this product does tend to be a little laggy when controlling with the phone. On the otherhand the physical gestures and buttons work great. The Sound is fantastic, i definitely recommend picking up a sub if you want more sound definition from your sound bar, as it compensates for bass drowning out some of the other ranges that it is capable of producing.

    This was a great investment. It was extremely easy to install and set up and it looks nice anywhere. Right now I only have the Beam set up and the sound is quality. Soon I will have the two surround sound speakers and I am sure it will be a joy to watch and movie or listen to music.

    I finally took the step to building my Sonos sound system. I can say with full confidence that it is THE greatest center speaker I’ve ever owned. Crisp and full. Sounds great by itself. Can pitch sound around the room as if you have a full compliment of speakers. I will only buy Sonos from here on.
