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).

    Fantastic little sound bar! Big upgrade from what we had. Watching movies and TV shows just got more enjoyable. I recently paired it with a Sonos Era 300 and it was AWESOME!

    The Sonos Beam is certainly above mid level. It's obviously meant to be used with a sub woofer. My only issue is that you pretty much have to do everything from your phone, and the app is not very user friendly.

    Its a Sonos so you get what you pay for. Easy set up and control, great sound quality for the size and a sleek design. Not a negative but the one thing I will say is that before purchasing I read a lot of reviews that said the Beam rivals the Arc. I now have both and the Arc is, in my opinion, vastly superior to the Beam. That is not a knock on the Beam. It is an amazing sound bar at its price and size. They are just meant for two different applications.

    The beam makes the sound experience really great when paired with the sub woofer. Having the ability to further pair them with other Sonos speakers in the house without having to run cables makes these a great buy

    This was our second Sonos-Beam. We like the first one so much that when we bought another TV, we added another Sonos-Beam. Excellent sound. Very pleased with the quality. The Sonos-Beam can also be used to stream music without the TV.

    Unsure how I feel about it. I think the installer walked off with operating guide so am feeling my way along as far as operation. Sound quality is fine.

    Liittt - definitely amplifies your TV. Don't purchase without the sub - you'll be missing out on the best paarrtt!! Going to purchase 2 of the 'ones' and spread out! The ultimate, modern home surround sound. Buy the system if u got the bag!

    This is a great little soundbar. I was originally hoping to buy an Arc, but purchased this as it was available. I have zero regrets. It was super easy to add to our existing Sonos setup.

    A little pricy but value for your money. Very easy to hook up. Plug in to TV and plug in to power. I also attached two Sonon 1 speakers I already had. It gave the room a fuller sound.
