This did not stay connected to our wireless setup on many occasions. Sound and volume was inconsistent. It provides surround sound, not constant sound so most of the time it sat there silent. App is garbage.

Worked great the first day. Every day after that it was miserable. Didn't connect, wouldn't recognize wifi, would recognize wireless speakers, subwoofer made popping sounds, and the tv wouldn't recognize the soundbar even when it was hard wired. It was super unreliable and the instructions are a generation behind. I returned it for a installed hard wire system

Images for this Review
(click to see full-size image)
User submitted photo
I have owned this for 3 weeks now. The picture is great and the 4K is awesome. The blacks are deep but when there is high contrast, like black wording on white background, I notice a lot of ghost images. Also during older animated shows I see ghost images. The UI is super simple. The built in apps are easy to navigate. The wifi is great. It goes from off to live Tv in one second! An underrated feature. So far so good. It has struggled to stay connected to my new Samsung surround system at times. That is the biggest negative.

My sister wanted it. It's slim and light. Good for everyday use in a non hardcore workout environment. A nice upgrade from the old version.

I am using this drive for my xbox one. It installed the software flawlessly and works like a charm. It's literally install it and forget it. It's perfect.

Bought brand new, went home and installed as per the directions. Installation was easy, directions were clear. Soon after installation, it would drop signal and reset itself every 1 - 3 hours roughly, usually at the most important part of a Netflix show or while gaming. It did this the entire time I owned it. Uninstalled and returned 2 days later.

Decent, deep sound. The button that pauses it is really annoying. If you bump into it it pauses your song. The headphones cut out sometime and also don't stay in my ear which is annoying.
