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). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Love the beam it’s great, I have the Sonos Arc for the living room and I love it. The Arc is much better for a big open area, but the Beam honestly is great too and can go in a living room as well and provide a room filling sound as well.

    Good soundbar if you are in the sonos ecosystem. Otherwise, there are cheaper or better sounding alternatives.

    After a lot of research online, I settled in on the Sonos beam Chintu, and it has been a great purchase. The sound out of this small package is immense, and when coupled with a subwoofer, and surround speakers is a great bedroom system.

    The demo in the store made it seem like this soundbar would make a huge difference in the sound on the tv we purchased. Well, it did not. Our tv had great sound and we did not hear anything strange or tinny as the tech described so we returned it.

    It’s exactly what you want. Works great with my Google home, sound quality is fantastic, perfect intro for an apartment-level/style sound setup. Always going to wish these things were cheaper but it’s definitely fair for the market
