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).

    I didn’t know this at time of purchase that these Sonos systems don’t come with a remote and you need a app that you only can get on a iphone.

    Sound bar sounds better than just tv. But has absolutely no bass. Salesperson said it would sound ok without sub woofer. I need to add sub woofer

    I’d love to see this work like advertised and some of the other reviewers claimed. Doesn’t matter what is I use on phone I always have to reset the whole entire thing. Junk not worth it unfortunately I’m passed my return or exchange date.. so I guess I own it now.. thanks Best Buy for this soundbar lol.

    Wanting… Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is not working with newer Samsung TVs when using the HDMI cable. Sonos support is aware of the issue but has no update as to when a fix, if ever, will be available. Sonos Support’s work around is to use the optical cable, instead of the HDMI cable.
