Literal Chills

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from a previous Samsung model. And I gotta tell you. This sound bar is insane! I tested all the different sound options through the Samsung Smart things app that it can connect to. The base and the crisp quality while watching an action packed movie gave me the chills!
The unboxing was really nice. Good straight forward instructions on setup. Comes with a remote and a pair of AAA batteries. I really love the hardware they have for mounting the bar on the wall. It comes with 2 brackets and little screws that go into the sound bar (you will need your own wall screws and anchors) It has a stencil which is really nice so you know exactly where to put the screws in the wall.

In all the setup was fairly easy. I chose to go with the eARC connection because my TV doesn't support wireless. The sound, like what I said earlier, is so good! I have always prioritized sound over picture quality, and have a good ear when it comes to quality drops. If you want good quality and don't want to spend the money on the latest and greatest. I would go for the HW-Q800f for sure!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung's HW-Q800F soundbar packs a punch that will sure to make your house rattle. It is well built with a metal construction and supports a 5.1.2 channel. Although it doesn't quite offer the same experience as having speakers behind you, it does do a fantastic job for a soundbar alone. The subwoofer has speakers on two sides which really helps to amplify the bass too. I found that I couldn't turn this soundbar above 30% without it being too loud which makes me wonder how well it handles on max. It was very easy to setup and supports Wi-Fi Bluetooth, HDMI and Optical like most soundbars. It paired instantly with my Samsung Neo QLED TV using HDMI ARC. I have used it for many hours streaming and playing video games on my Desktop and it handles quite well with no static like my other soundbar. This is a great soundbar for those who want a surround sound feel without the need of several extra speakers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start by saying , i thought for sure the soundbar was going to be damaged ,showed up in real rough conditions, but to my surprise all was good, ,now set up was so simple especially since it matches with my current tv, the Q-Symphony2 was a perfect and easy match,as it is searced automatically if you have a Samsung tv,it will pair your soundbar automatically,easy as 123 as matches up perfect, the subwoofer was nice and heavy bass ,its compact and looks nice and gives you the heavy bass you need, can be adjusted from one to six, with your remote, 6 being the most bass you can put out with the subwoofer, and the bar itself had a crisp clear voice and the dolby atmos works so easy with nthe sound,sound was seperated very nicely, the bar is not that bad as far as weight, but i chose not to put on wall, the remote is pretty basic to use, the 5.1 speakers sound really nice and the bar is pretty nicely built and looks good,overall pretty pleased and give it a five star review,so if your not sure , go ahead and buy it, you will be pleased ,

This system blew me away!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Samsung HW-Q800F soundbar with my Q75 series Samsung TV for a few weeks, and I was absolutely stunned by the incredible sound quality it pumps out—it’s like having a theater in my living room! The 5.1.2-channel surround sound with Dolby Atmos creates this mind-blowing immersive experience, where sounds like overhead rain or roaring jets feel like they’re moving all around me, making every movie night epic. The wireless subwoofer delivers deep, punchy bass that gives action scenes and my music playlists a serious kick, but it’s so well-tuned that dialogue remains crystal clear without getting overpowered. The Q-Symphony feature is pure magic, syncing perfectly with my Q75 TV to produce a massive, dynamic soundstage that fills the room with rich, vibrant audio. Setup was a total breeze, and I love tweaking the sound settings through the SmartThings app while lounging on my couch—it’s so convenient. I’d recommend this soundbar to everyone; it’s completely transformed how I enjoy my shows and music, and I’m obsessed with the experience!

2nd samsung 800 series... theres a difference.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a huge fan of samsung. I have everything, phones, tvs, soundbars basically anything they make i have.
2 years ago i got the 800c, this yr i got to test out the 800f and u would think there isnt a big difference. But there is! I couldnt believe it. They upgraded the subwoofer. The soundbar itself looks much better, cleaner and most important sounds better. I loved my 800c hence getting this 800f for my living room. I have 2 toddlers so its loud in my house. I needed a nice clear sounding extra boost to hear the tv.
The enhanced dialogue makes watching tv much better since you can clearly hear what they are saying. As i said earlier the bass isnt overpowering at all, but if you wanted it too, you can obviously adjust it and it gets loud!
If you have any other samsung devices, its very easy to connect and listen via phone, tablet ect. I highly reccomend this soundbar/subwoofer combo

Excellent Soundscape

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soundbar was fairly easy out of the box to set up and get synced up with my tv. The subwoofer and soundbar linked up effortlessly. This soundbar has a lot of bells and whistles compared to the previous one we owned. I really like that I can control the soundbar with my TV remote, limiting the need for extra remotes. The sound quality is insanely good for such small components. You get a truly immersive sound. We have watched all kinds of media and have listened to audio via Bluetooth and AirPlay. AirPlay is such an amazing feature to have for the soundbar as connecting my phone and playing playlists is a breeze. I can’t believe how great this thing really is! The highs and low frequencies have great responses. We also hated our last soundbar due to loud sounds but low voices no matter what setting we chose. We do not have that issue with this soundbar. The voices are clear but no loss in quality with surrounding elements. All in all, I am blown away with this soundbar and would highly recommend it to anyone who needs an upgrade in sound and doesn’t have the space for a full fledged system.

Great Soundbar and Subwoofer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound bar has added great sound to my TV. After unboxing, it was very simple to set up. Just plug in HDMI to TV on the ARC input and power up the soundbar. I am able to easily use the TV remote to have it automatically turn on-off. I love the wireless subwoofer which only required you to plug it in because it is already paired to the soundbar. You have two options where you can mount to the wall with included brackets but sadly no hardware is included which is a miss on Samsung's part. Other option which I chose was to just simply lay it on wherever you have the TV. My other gripe is that for such a expensive soundbar, the remote is battery powered and wish it came with the solar powered/charging remote that I have on my Samsung TVs.
Now for the sound, you can adjust the preset options with the remote but it is able to detect Dolby and other sound formats coming through from the program. The sound is crystal clear and gives it the surround sound set up without all of the speakers and wires. Soundbars have come along way and this Samsung one is a great option. I did not pair this with my Samsung TV as that already has a home theater setup with high end sound system. Due to this I was not able to test out the Q-Symphony set up which runs sound both from TV and Soundbar.
Overall, pleased with my purchase as the soundbar works effortlessly and was basically plug and play. No speaker wires, no mess, no fuss, just great sound!

Wow, just wow!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, just wow! Upgrading to this soundbar has been a total game changer for movies and even just TV. The setup was incredibly easy - hooked it up quickly and the wireless subwoofer paired itself without any fuss. The difference in sound quality compared to just the TV speakers is honestly night and day. Everything sounds so rich, full and detailed. Watching movies is a completely new experience now. The sound feels like it's coming from all around sometimes even from above really pulling you into the action. You hear little details in the background you never noticed before. The bass from the subwoofer is deep and powerful - you can really feel those explosions and dramatic moments without it just being muddy noise. What surprised me most is how incredibly clear the dialogue is now. Voices come through perfectly crisp and easy to understand and no need to have subtitles on all the time to miss things people say.
