Our Verdict

LG S80QY

Samsung HW-Q800B

The Samsung HW-Q800B is better than the LG S80QY. The Samsung bar is a 5.1.2 setup, while the LG is a 3.1.3 setup. The Samsung soundbar's two side-firing channels mean that it has a more clear and real representation of surround sound. Its Atmos performance is better, too, and it's a bit more customizable thanks to its graphic EQ.
