Samsung HW-S50B 3Ch All-In-One Sound Bar
Reviewed by Johnny K on Argos
I bought this soundbar to boost the sound of my new Samsung QN94A tv. Unfortunately I ultimately had to return the soundbar due to a major negative which I’ll list below. Pro’s - boosted sound beautifully and gave cinematic movies some real oomph. - Q Symphony worked well, utilising the built in tv speakers to work in harmony with the soundbar. - Game mode was a real highlight, the depth added with bass and in the lows was superb. Con’s - won’t connect to the Samsung app, model not an option to add. Meaning all you can do to change sound modes etc is press a button X amount of times….an annoying American female voice sounds each and every time quite loudly which is jarring. - No Dolby Atmos which is a shame. Sony and LG both have a ‘virtual Dolby Atmos’ at similar price points. MAIN CON - In the 10 or so days I had this soundbar not once did it make it through an entire show without the sound cutting out…no sound whatsoever for 5-10 seconds plus. This meant I had to turn off the soundbar and rewind Netflix , Disney+ shows etc and watch again with the tv speakers. I returned the product and unfortunately cannot recommend it as it doesn’t maintain a steady connection. I tried everything to fix the issue including pouring over the Samsung support website and manuals but to no avail. ... More
Great improvement on built in TV speaker

Reviewed by Craggle on Argos
Bought this to pair up with my new 24” Samsung TV in the kitchen, which is wall mounted. The soundbar is a massive improvement on the built in TV speaker and is also great for using to listen to music from my phone via Bluetooth. It’s not as good as my bigger Samsung soundbar for the lounge TV but that cost £100 more - so wouldn’t expect it to, however it’s perfect for a portable sized tv in the kitchen or bedroom etc, just don’t expect to be blown away with the volume level or clarity you would get from a larger unit. Connectivity wise, it can be used via HDMI ARC, Digital Optical Cable, USB, or Bluetooth. You will need to provide your own cables either way. The soundbar comes with wall mounting brackets and a power lead style transformer plug & remote control. I would only really recommend this for using on a secondary TV, but if you are buying it for your main TV, then spend more on a bigger / better quality one otherwise you may be left a bit disappointed. I am happy enough with mine for the purpose it’s serving. ... More
Installation was a no-brainer

Reviewed by John on B&H Photo Video
I purchased this soundbar to use with my Samsung Q60A QLED TV as voices were often hard to hear on programs. Since the TV had Q-Symphony, I wanted a soundbar that also had the option. The soundbar also had to be small to fit between the feet, so this was the size I needed. I read the included instructions for setting up both TV and soundbar and expected to be hunting for settings and getting options turned on to take advantage of the soundbar. Hooked the two up using ARC, hit the power button, and immediately had sound pumping through TV and soundbar speakers. I checked the settings and the system had made all the changes automatically. Yes, your mileage may vary if your TV is a different brand. Samsung made it easy. Sound is significantly improved, a deeper, richer sound and voices are much easier to follow. . ... More
Sound bar

Reviewed by Elizabeth on Argos
Bought this before Christmas to improve the sound from our Samsung TV. Not too expensive and certainly improves sound quality. Not difficult to fit although out TV is wall mounted in the kitchen, we mounted the sound bar above the TV so people wouldn’t bump into it. It is slim and compact enough not to look odd. The negative is it has a transformer which we had been told by a Samsung rep it did not. Makes it a little challenging when wall mounting and keeping everything tidy and sleek. Over all it’s marvellous and meets our needs.
Good sound for small rooms

Reviewed by BenH on Argos
A huge improvement over TV speakers, and ideal if you have a Samsung phone or TV as it integrates well through SmartThings (meaning you can use your normal TV remote or smartphone to control it). It has lots of features and the sound is good considering the size of the soundbar - not mind-blowing or particularly loud, but certainly decent considering the price. If you're looking for something with deep bass to fill a whole room, get something with a separate subwoofer. But for those in flats, bedrooms, or relatively small lounges, you won't be disappointed with this.

Very good sound quality Soundbar
Samsung HW-S50B 3Ch All-In-One Sound Bar
Reviewed by ColyBNI on Argos
I bought this to match up with a recent Samsung TV purchase to enhance the TV sound. New TV is very thin (nice) but sound quality suffers from this. This soundbar has added much more volume overall with much better, deeper Bass & sparkling Treble. I do have to say however that it's difficult to know what mode your in or when changing settings etc. as this is done mostly with five LED lights on front to indicate modes/settings. Overall a good purchase although I think it's a little too expensive for what it is hence the 4 star rating.
Great sound

Reviewed by Char113 on Argos
Bought this as a present, he was made up with it and it connected very easily. One thing I have noticed is that our tv sometimes switches off and the sound bar flashes at that time. This only started since the sound bar so must be linked. This is only on a rare occasion so doesn’t bother us too much. Overall happy with my purchase for the price.
Nice design and shape

Bought this for my tv in bedroom, wanted a bit more sound punch the tv speakers didn’t have, easy to set up on my Sony . Sound is great for what I needed without a sub woofer, I have that system in my lounge for louder cinema sound. Overall nice bit of kit with brackets as well.
No display but decent sound

No display which is awkward and couldn’t get it to work with a HDMI cable but luckily had an optical cable on another sound bar and tried that and it worked a great but it would definitely benefit from a proper display rather than white lights that go up and down.

I ordered this sound bar last week to use with my Sony 50 inch TV. It does not work. When using the Bluetooth connection the sound bar does not lip sync with the TV. I tried using the optical connector and the speaker won't even work. I spent $200.00 for nothing.
