[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soundbar has been a great addition to my media room. When Samsung says it’s a slim soundbar, they really meant it. As a result, it not only looks great just about anywhere, but sounds much much bigger. After adding this device to my SmartThings app, the Soundbar seamlessly/wirelessly connected to my Samsung OLED TV. The sound quality is amazing, with almost any feature you can think of (i.e. Dolby atmos, voice amplifier and enhancement, adaptive sound, etc.). The bass that the subwoofer provides is spectacular. It truly feels like an immersive theatre experience when watching movies and shows. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a high quality soundbar addition to their home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use our media room throughout the day, everyday, so we try to only install the best bang-for-our-buck hardware we can. We chose the Samsung HW-S800D (3.1.2 channel setup) with the goal of high quality theater-like sound in mind. I’m a pretty big fan of Dolby Atmos’ capabilities, so that alone was a big selling point for me.

Set up wasn’t too easy or too hard. The instructions could’ve been illustrated a bit better. The subwoofer didn’t automatically pair with the soundbar like the instructions said it would to, and my wife had to do the manual pairing process a few times to get it to stick.

It was worth it though (wife agrees) with how nice the 3.1.2ch setup is. Genuinely great quality for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with this slim but amazing soundbar with bass unit. I added the Samsung s9300 rear surround speakers for the ultimate Dolby atmos sound.
So easy to connect because they are wireless!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soundbar absolutely blew me away.
The soundbar is so thin compared to the Older Samsung soundbar I was replacing ,with out the back speakers I was worried that it would be missing a ton of power and sound compared to my old soundbar "wow was I wrong". Once the new soundbar was mounted under my Samsung Frame TV I was amazed on how thin it was on the wall.
The soundbar connected to the Samsung smartThings app very easy and just needed a quick update. It also sets itself up with the adaptive sound feature and adapts to your room. Once it was updated, I was connected to the tv I turned on StarWars Asoka and my god the sound from the little soundbar just blew me away, with the dolby atoms.
With the Q-Symphony option it uses the speakers on my tv at the same time "I think this is only works with Select Samsung tv's" this help fill the room with even more surround sound.
The soundbar came with a micro Hdmi to standard Hdmi cable to attach to your tv so nothing extra to buy " this is a great extra" you can also connect the sound bar via bluetooth or your home wireless.
Once it was connected to my Wireless network and SmartThings it seamlessly connected to most of the tech in my home and can easily stream music right to it.
It also has Alexa built in just had to connect via the Smarthings app it also works with Google home/Apple airplay and chromecast.
When I connected to my X box I used the game mode and the sound it creates in the room is a game changer.
In my short time with this soundbar I truly have been amazed by it the most difficult part was mounting the bar on the wall and that only to 25 minutes and I just wanted to make sure it was dead center and even on the wall. But just how easy it was to connect to the tv and my other devices and the crazy amount of base and sound that come out of such a small package still is just amazing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really impressed with this soundbar! I was a bit hesitant to add a sound bar to my space at first since I worried that it would look too clunky, but this soundbar is unbelievably slim and sleek, and looks wonderful! It's definitely the smallest soundbar I've owned. But even though the soundbar is slim, it still has amazing audio with booming sound. I also have never used Samsung's Q-Symphony before, but wow was it incredible - the soundbar connects to the TV speakers, playing sound from both to create a very immersive, surround sound experience. I kept switching between the TV speakers only and then Q-Symphony to compare, and it really is no contest - It really kicked the audio up to a whole other level.

I also love how easily the soundbar connects to other devices. It has built in Chromecast that I use every single day to play music, and it connects so quickly and effortlessly. It can also connect via wifi and bluetooth, so there are plenty of options to get connected. And the best part - I have a Samsung Frame TV and used to be disappointed that I couldn't play music while having artwork displayed, but this soundbar has been the perfect solution. I can now cast my music to the soundbar and keep my artwork up - it definitely elevates the space!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this sound bar sound system connected with my TV's surround sound system and the sound quality is phenomenal. Whenever I'm gaming out or watching a movie, the audio alone makes me feel like I have a movie theater at home!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The soundbar is the perfect fit for our house. It is very sleek and fit wonderfly on our table. The sound is clear and with a large range in volume.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW! For such a slim soundbar, this thing gets loud! We mounted ours on the wall under the TV, which was super easy with the included hardware and sticker for screw placement. The sound quality is excellent, so detailed and balanced! The subwoofer placed to the side of the TV stand is fairly discreet visibly, while still packing a big punch sound wise. We have been thoroughly impressed with the sound quality and aesthetics of our new set up.
