when i first received the product it was okay. i wasn't impressed with the volume of the sound output, but i was at least okay with it. the sound quality was great but the volume was mediocre. now, it doesn't even power up anymore. it didn't even last 1 year. i am seven days shy of the one year warranty from my purchase date; however, when i tried to request support from samsung through my account where i registered my product when i purchased it, they had my product listed out of warranty. i clicked the warranty review link and uploaded my invoice showing my purchase date, but i haven't received a response yet.

for movies seems good... but for music is bad, most of the sound comes from the little center channel and the main channels sounds like auxiliary, also the stereo sound gets a little mixed up letting part of the right sound sounding in the center and a bit the left channel and vice versa. adjusting the bass and treble won't make any difference in sound, neither from the remote or the smartthings app(wich lacks some settings like center channel level). hoping samsung fix this in a future firmware update

The Samsung Soundbar HW-Q800T arrived in two boxes that were joined together. Unboxing was simple. Everything we needed was included and packed in a logical manner: the Soundbar Q800T with power cable, subwoofer with power cable, HDMI cable, soundbar wall mounts, paper wall mount guide, instruction manual, remote control and 2 triple AAA batteries for the remote. Plug in the subwoofer first. Connect the Soundbar Q800T to the TV’s HDMI eArc port using the supplied HDMI cable. Plug soundbar to power. Even if our Samsung Q80R TV was the 2020 model, it paired with the soundbar Q800T almost instantly. We did this without mounting first just to test the soundbar. We disconnected soundbar from power. Next, we used the measuring guide to center-align the Soundbar Q800T when mounting to the wall. Per instructions, the Q800T can be mounted a mere 2 inches below the TV. However, to be able to access controls behind the TV with ease, we mounted it 4 inches below the TV. The TV is mounted higher and mounted the Soundbar is our ear level sitting up. On our matte black wall, the soundbar Q800T is stylish and sleek paired with the Samsung Q80R 65" TV mounted using Samsung's own WMN750 Mini Wall Mount. We also pair the Soundbar with iPhone to listen to podcasts and streaming radio programs. At first, I couldn't get the pairing to work even if the iPhone indicated it was already connected through Bluetooth. Eventually, all I needed to do was to disconnect the soundbar from the power source to reset and pair properly. After that everything was easy and smooth. Adding the Soundbar to the Smart Things App and using Alexa voice control was also straight-forward. Which brings us the sound quality of Samsung Q800T. We are completely satisfied with the sound quality. It is amazing how much fuller and better everything sounds with the Q800T. It makes our same 2020 Samsung Q80R feel like a completely new and improved TV. It is such an enjoyable experience. We tested it re-watching Hamilton on TV and the experience is much more elevated this time around. We tested the Soundbar re-watching The Mandalorian episodes and the explosive sounds and action is at home theatre experience. We keep the Soundbar volume at a 25 average. This is way below the 100-maximum volume. Hamilton (at 35 volume) provided clear, crisp dialogue and lyrics. and The Mandalorian (at 30 volume) provided sound that was full, rich, and detailed. We are still experimenting with the subwoofer for preferred
