Samsung Won the Comparison Hands Down

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I compared this Samsung soundbar side by side with a similarly priced Hisense 5.1 soundbar, and the difference was immediately noticeable. The Samsung delivered much better overall sound quality, with clearer vocals, richer mid-range, deeper and more controlled bass, and excellent clarity across movies, TV shows, and music. Both products were in the same price range, but the Samsung stood out in every way. Dialogue is crisp and easy to understand, the surround effect is more immersive, and the sound feels balanced without being overwhelming. The comparison made my decision easy—I kept the Samsung and returned the Hisense. If you're looking for outstanding sound quality and value for the money, I highly recommend this Samsung soundbar.

Don't Do It!!

The display goes across an extremely small screen. There's really nothing spectacular about these speakers, they're constantly muting for no reason and i have to power off / on to make the sound play. I wouldn't recommend these. I've had these over a year and I wish I could get something better.

Masterclass in Sonic Immersion: The Samsung HW-Q65

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung HW-Q65C Q-Series soundbar punches far above its weight class. It transforms your living room into a cinematic powerhouse without the premium price tag. Here is a breakdown of why this 5.1-channel Dolby Atmos system deserves a spot under your television. Soundstage & Directionality Expansive Soundstage The bar's physical width creates an expansive front audio landscape. True 5.1 Channel Separation: Dedicated rear speakers prevent the audio masking common in standalone bars.Laser-Accurate Directionality: Sound effects track across the room with pinpoint accuracy. Side-Firing Drivers: Acoustic beams project sound outwards to widen the listening sweet spot.Immersion & Dolby ATMOS Enveloping Atmosphere: Physical rear channels pull you directly into the center of the action. Virtual Height Channels: Dolby Atmos processing psychoacoustically places overhead elements efficiently. Deep Low-End Presence: The wireless subwoofer delivers tactile bass that grounds the entire sound field.Cohesive Bubble: The system successfully blends front, rear, and low frequencies into a seamless dome of sound.Dialogue & Synchronization Crystal-Clear Vocals: A dedicated center channel ensures whispers and heavy dialogue never get lost in chaotic action scenes. Adaptive Sound: The bar analyzes content in real time to boost voice frequencies when needed. Flawless Synchronization: Q-Symphony tech pairs the soundbar drivers perfectly with your compatible Samsung TV speakers. Zero Lip-Sync Lag: Audio and video remain perfectly locked, eliminating annoying timing discrepancies

Great sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound bar replaced my old Vizio system and it's a noticeable upgrade. It was easy to setup and I love that it integrated with my Samsung TV for Q Symphony

Great sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy set up, easy to connect and easy to use. The sound output is crystal clear, and undisturbed, even at loud levels. The surround sound effects are fantastic. One can hear whatever program/music you're listening to from every direction, it seems. I was able to sync to my TV and phone easily with no loss of connection. The sound capabilities work well, and the equalizer setting is simple to use. Solid sound system.

Easy set up. Decent sound quality for the price.

This was pretty easy to set up. I connected it to my Samsung eARC HDMI port and the TV just recognizes it and set up everything for you. The bluetooth speakers also seemed to auto discover each other and connected no problem. The soundbar and subwoofer sound is good. The rear speakers are a bit weak though so you need to turn up the TV volume quite a bit to get the surround sound experience.

Excellent Sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sound system is excellent for smaller to midsize rooms. The sub has more than enough punch for lows and the sound bar does a great job with the dialogue and midrange. The wireless rear speakers add to the perfect listening experience. I have received many compliments on our sound system.
