Our Verdict

Samsung HW-Q600C/Q60CC

LG SG10TY

The Samsung HW-Q600C/Q60CC is a better soundbar than the LG SG10TY. The Samsung is better-built with a more neutral sound profile out of the box, and upfiring speakers to help create a more immersive height experience when watching movies. Its latency is quite high across all formats on HDMI and ARC, though, so you'll want to use the Audio Sync feature to help correct delay. In comparison, the LG offers more wireless connectivity options.
