Amazing, cinematic experience at home

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so thoroughly impressed by this sound bar. Our household loves striving to create the best soundscapes and experiences we can, as we digest a LOT of media. We selected the Samsung HW-S800D (3.1.2 channel setup) knowing that this best carries theater-like sound throughout the large room this lives in. What really sold us was the form factor AND usage of Dolby Atmos, which is largely why the 3.1.2 channel setup sounds as good as it does. Setup was NOT as easy as expected (or as the instructions tried to convince us it was). The subwoofer did not automatically pair with the soundbar like the instructions alluded to, and I had to do the manual pairing process thrice to finally get them to pair. I believe the issue was that the soundbar was trying to download/install a software update after I got it set up on my wifi and in my Smart Things app. I say “I believe”, since there was no indication that this software update was being attempted until after each timeI rebooted the soundbar while following the instructions under troubleshooting the subwoofer. I do like that the Smart Things app integration (and wifi integration for that matter) was optional. It added additional steps to my setup since I understand and appreciate the integrations it provides my household, but I love that it was not mandatory for the folks who may not care. Overall, as frustrating as the setup was for a few moments, the sound quality is immaculate and worth the fuss ten times over.

Bedroom vs Living Room Experience

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its not a living room type of system if thats what one is looking for. Meaning if you're an audiophile looking for full enriched sounds this will do well in a bedroom environment (smaller space). For a bigger room no, I would advise against. What it does provide is a quick access for a temporary fix. Like I stated earlier the living room experience. Its worth the price at least when I got it on black friday.

Great looking, sound lacking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The soundbar is my main source of audio in a relatively small open concept living room/kitchen space. The smaller, low profile footprint of the soundbar is great, but I’m unfortunately very underwhelmed by the performance of the product. Based on the product info online and various reviews online, I was expecting “bigger” sound. Especially for the price. A few issues: WiFi connectivity is not great. I can get it to connect, but it won’t stay connected. I want to use the Q Symphony feature, but it won’t stay connected. I’ve switched to Bluetooth. Second, the SOUND: it’s clear, it’s better than the TV, but I was really hoping for fuller, bigger sound - better, punchier bass. I’ve tried adjusting settings but even after doing that, the results are lackluster. The subwoofer is on the smaller side and the drivers on the soundbar are small due to the smaller profile, so I guess I should have known better.

Unique Sound Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife are movie fanatics. We want to keep the volume low but still get quality sound. That is hard to do with just the TV speakers. We did a lot of research and found the Samsung S-series bar to be what we were looking for. Great sound quality where you can hear every word, even whispers at any volume. But in those movies where there are car crashes or explosions you can feel the vibrations and feel like you are actually there. I am very pleased with my Samsung sound bar. It has brought a whole new enjoyment to our movie watching experience.

Pretty decent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's pretty decent. The sound is clear. The face is a little muddy. Yeah, sometimes I wish the travel came out louder. It almost sounds disconnected from the rest of the system. I miss the old Dolby 5.1. Where are you at speaker's coming at him? From? Every angle, but they're doing a pretty good job recreating digitally

This product has amazing sound quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Blown Away by the Immersive Sound! From the moment I unboxed this Samsung speaker, I knew I was in for a treat, but the actual audio experience has far exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is simply phenomenal – crystal-clear highs dance beautifully with rich, deep bass that you can truly feel. Whether I'm listening to my favorite music, catching up on podcasts, or immersing myself in a movie, the audio is consistently vibrant and detailed, filling the room with a captivating soundscape. What truly sets this speaker apart is its seamless connectivity. Pairing with my phone and other devices was effortless, and the Bluetooth connection has remained rock-solid without any annoying dropouts. The sleek and modern design also deserves a mention; it looks fantastic on my shelf and blends seamlessly with my home decor. Beyond the incredible sound and stylish design, the ease of use is a major plus. The controls are intuitive, and the battery life is impressive, allowing for hours of uninterrupted listening pleasure. I've even used it for hands-free calls, and the microphone quality is surprisingly clear. Honestly, this Samsung speaker has completely transformed my audio experience at home. It's a premium product that delivers on its promises and offers exceptional value for the price. If you're looking for a speaker that combines stunning sound, elegant design, and effortless use

PHENOMENAL!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off I'd like to say sound quality is amazing. Me and my family use our soundbar every night of the week and especially you love it on movie nights because it literally sounds like you have surround sound system around your whole room. The sound quality is crisp and clear and never distorted. Very easy to use and easy to set up I'm planning on buying another Samsung soundbar for the bedroom and for my den. When I listen to music I like it loud and so I have no problem turning this sound bar up because there's never any sacrifice of quality of sound. Thank you Samsung for a well-built product!

Great Sound System

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to set up and connect to many devices. I absolutely LOVE the wonderful sound that makes listening to music, watching movies and series the most amazing experience! The only thing that made me give 4 Stars is the sound is not the same at the back of the room, and I thought it'd be more expansive. Maybe the room is too big for this set up and I might need to upgrade, and add speaks in the back.
