Great hardware, but will not work as needed
on October 22, 2022
Posted by: ECS08
I purchased 2 of these to pair with a 2022 75" The Frame TV, hopeing to pair both via WiFi using the WiFi surround feature on the Frame. I have messed with every setting on both the soundbars and the TV. While both are connected via WiFi they will not both connect to the TV simultaneously. The only way I can get them both to connect is via Bluetooth using the multiconnect feature. The biggest issue is to do this I have to pair and connect the speakers each time. By default only one device will connect via Bluetooth.
This has to be possible to have both sound bars connect by default either using the WiFi surround feature (preferred) or using multi device connect .. any help here would be great ! Starting to feel like I wasted a bunch of money on this for nothing ..

Response from Samsung USBy Samsung Solutions, Samsung Brand Ambassador, October 24, 2022
Hello ECS08,
Thank you for purchasing the new HW-S800B Ultra Slim Soundbar.
The soundbars do indeed support Wi-Fi, to be able to connect wirelessly to a Samsung TV. But the feature does not support two soundbars simultaneously.
Bluetooth Multi-Connection is a feature that allows you to connect to smart devices to the same soundbar. This allows two people to have their own phones connected to a soundbar and switch back and forth playing music.
Should you ever have questions or need help, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Soundbars), available 8 AM – 12 AM EST, 7 days a week.

Great soundbar and subwoofer with Atmos support
on September 20, 2023
Posted by: GalaxyS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soundboard and wireless subwoofer have a great sound with amazing low frequency response from the subwoofer. Atmos support brings the sound alive in your room giving you surround sound from a single soundbar.

This product best features
on August 17, 2023
Posted by: Summyproducts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another notable aspect of Samsung products is the user interface. The One UI, layered on top of Android, provides a clean and intuitive interface. Navigating through menus and settings is straightforward, and the inclusion of useful features like split-screen multitasking and an app drawer search function adds to the overall user experience.

The skinny bar

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung HW- S800B is a very skinny soundbar that has excellent sound & is really easy to set up. I am using it with a non Samsung TV and this soundbar looks great with it.
It is very easy to set up & use – especially if you are using other Samsung components. I also have Samsung smartphone so it works seamlessly with Smart Things. It comes with mounting hardware to wall-mount. Yes, it uses a mini-HDMI cable (not full-size HDMI cable) which just means it has a smaller connector but still works the same – just saves space on the soundbar with a drawback or breaking easily as i already snapped one while lifting the soundbar.

Unboxing the soundbar was very easy its packed in a guitar shaped box with everything well packed. The components and wires and all portions of the system feel top notch and well built. After connecting via HDMI, the sound bar was recognized instantly. The sound is amazing right off the box and the sound bar fully works with the TV volume without having to dive into settings. The range of configuration is rich without adding too many unneeded settings. Dont let the small size fool you, it does look sleek but the 3.1.2 channels of Dolby Atmos or DTS:X audio delivers a punch. Overall, great quality and performance in a small, elegant package.

Big sound, little footprint.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I purchased the soundbar, I wasn't really expecting anything from such a small thing. Well I can tell you, this is an excellent soundbar for the size. So much more sound than what I was anticipating. Absolutely phenomenal what Samsung has done in my opinion.
Setup was a breeze, install into the HDMI Arc or eArc port and everything else takes care of it self. TV seamlessly integrated with the soundbar.
