Samsung HW-K850 Soundbar (Black) with Dolby Atmos

From the first use we got great sound. I can't believe we waited so long before getting a sound bar
The sound from every program is now more realistic; listening through the tv speakers compared to doing so through the sound bar is like clearing your ears out - the difference is that noticeable.
This item does improve the sound quality of my 2018 Samsung 4K TV a lot it's actually amazing.
I like the sound on it mids and highs crystal clear, the bass and subwoofer are great though for my taste i toned them down a little.
I just like to hear sound the way it was made to be heard, in three-dimensions, just like every day sounds and of a good, clear quality. This does that but also provides a great rounded and clear sound.

Samsung HW-K850 Soundbar (Black) with Dolby Atmos

It fit perfectly with my 65" TV and it's certainly well built.
This is a nice addition to my home theater system. It looks great and sounds good.
The soundbar, itself, is hefty, containing eleven speakers (9 frontal and 2 ceiling pointing) and it is long, measuring 4' across. . You need a good size base upon which to set it.
It's well built, it's easy to install and looks beautiful.
Very sleek looking with a great surround sound and easy to use

What customers say about "Features"

Samsung HW-K850 Soundbar (Black) with Dolby Atmos

On a regular basis I am convinced that some of the sounds heard are generated in another room, or around me. I am more than impressed.
Speech remains clear, and the "big" sounds in the movie still impress.
Great sound surround with deep bass and clear tones makes it ideal for tv and music alike.
After years of listening to TV and movies with a modest 5.1 system, I decided to try something new. I was blown away by the sound. Voices were clear, music was beautiful and action clips were off the charts.
The beauty of this system is, once you turn it on … everything connects automatically! So now the real test, how would it sound in my home .. answer GREAT, I absolutely love this system.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Samsung HW-K850 Soundbar (Black) with Dolby Atmos

This is coupled to a Samsung Bluray player and a new QE55Q9FNA TV. Trying it out with a few movies with demanding soundtracks has proved it to be superb.
Installation couldn't be easier - HDMI cable to the TV-ARC port and plug in the power cable and we are good to go.
Very happy with my acquisition, no problem, light good sound, good connectivity
I bought my HW-850 in December 2016. It's connected to my 55" Samsung curved television via bluetooth. Connecting the system was quick and easy
Works great with Xbox one and Ps4. Awesome sound quality and will def recommend to all my friends.
