Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Electronics can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new electronics should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty.

Good Sounding Speaker

Scott L 1/19/2022

our tv sits across a corner in our living room, so most of the sound from the rear-facing tv speakers made it a bit difficult to hear dialog in some shows. the samsung hw-s40t sounds great and has a few different "modes" for the best dialog setting for our room.

Loud Robot Voice

Mandy 10/17/2021

i hope you all enjoy robotic voices loudly announcing "digital audio in" every time you turn on the tv, because that's what you will get with this soundbar. the sound quality is great but this voice guide that is seemingly impossible to turn off ruins the benefits. i've read articles and tried to contact customer support, to no avail.

BackToSony 10/10/2021

purchased this to go with a samsung tv, the sound is horrible, might as well just use the tv (save your money).. digitial audio in will blast at all hours randomly despite instructions or firmware update (if you can get that to work too).. support was abismal when reached out via text, keep getting the run around or pass from department to department, do not buy

Bah1004 5/22/2021

my soundbar keeps saying digital audio in. can not get it to stop. on phone with customer service. they could not help me. said to download firmware. i am not able to do this on my apple computer. i asked for my money back or to please let me return and send me replacement. i elevated my issue to a supervisor . he would not help me. i told him ever since i got this product in december 2020 it has been a problem. he said i would have to send it in for repair and if they find no defects that i will be charged. so the solution is to send in my defective product and have to sink more money into something that never worked right to begin with. i eventually had to hang up. company won't stand behind their product and wants me to send back pay more and not replace my defective product.

Randomly turns on

Amanda 2/21/2021

randomly says digital audio on, full blast, all throughout the day. i've contacted tech support and they had us just turn the thing on and off for 20 minutes, not solving any issues whatsoever. i've tried updating, hard reseting, everything. nothing works. earns a star for sounding good.

SUBWOOFER withdraw

Eliyah 2/18/2021

the soundbar was a nearly perfect match to my samsung tv. the only drawback is there is no optional support for a subwoofer. the sound experience would be so much more enjoyable if the device supported this option.

Great sound, poor user experience

Dario 1/15/2021

on oct 2020 a new firmware has been released. evene if i register my product, there is no heads up on the new release... so i should check it regularly... once i found the new firmware, there are not release notes... so i dont have the slightest clue of what has changed... digging thorugh the reviews, it seems that a new function to disable power-on voice has been added (which i was expecting for a long time)... is there anything else that has been improved?

Sound quality

Aaron 1/7/2021

the sound of the sound bar is amazing. however the sound bar has a voice that tells you when ot turns on the input setting and other things, that supper annoying. it also never goes off so every hour and a half i hear the voice yelling what input its on. i have had to unplug it when i sleep because it can wake me up.

BT Sync with Movies is Not Good

Yenn 12/9/2020

i've been using this soundbar for the last week and i'm pretty disappointed. when i watch a movie from my laptop, the soundbar isn't synced up well. there is lag between the people talking and the words coming out of the soundbar. this makes for a terrible movie-watching experience. i've noticed this while watching netflix shows as well. since there is only an optical i/o, i can't even hook up an audio cable to my laptop to get precision sound+visual. i'm ready to pack it back up and return it.

good sound but annoying flaw

rpddsmith 12/5/2020

the sound from this unit is pretty good and i would have rated it at five stars if not for one annoying thing it does. randomly and without warning it blurts out "digital audio in" at full volume. i have tried resetting it, updating the firmware, still no solution. samsung tech's only answer is to send it back for inspection. i have read many reviews from people who are having the same issue so i'm sure it's not something wrong with just my unit. i want to stick with a samsung sound bar since my tv is also samsung.

Horrible Product

SusanH 12/2/2020

the soundbar has always been problematic since it was purchased and several calls have been made to samsung because the unit does not always power on. we purchased the inexpensive unit for a guess bedroom that is rarely used and we had no idea how long the unit had not work until thanksgiving holiday weekend. the unit was delivered on august 9,2020 so unit is only 3 months old. i called samsung your company response is that only option is to send the unit for repair, the unit was defective from the beginning.

Not sure I'm sold yet

moun10climbr 12/1/2020

i have a newish (~ 1.5 year old) 65" samsung tv, and with the speakers being in the back the sound quality isn't amazing. i found a deal on this soundbar during black friday and decided to give it a shot. i'm not sold yet... while i do hear the sound coming from the soundbar that's located in front of the tv rather than the built-in speakers, the sound quality isn't that great like 95% of the time (the other 5% of the time it is working as intended... not sure what i'm doing different). i'm going to unhook and then rehook up all the cables today and see if that makes a difference, but if not, this is going back.

Great Clarity for News

Peter B 10/14/2020

my 43" class mu6300 is mounted in a cabinet, the tv's speakers are facing the back. before the sondbar was installed, it sounded like i was listening to the news in a tunnel. this sound bar brought the sound forward & eliminated the echo. the clarity is much improved. also, the set up was very easy, i just plugged in the power & optical cable, the sound bar worked like magic. plus a bonus: 3 items all work with one remote, the tv, soundbar and the spectrum cable box. i am very pleased & so is my wife.
