Our Verdict

Samsung HW-Q800A

Bose Smart Soundbar 900

The Samsung HW-Q800A is better than the standalone Bose Smart Soundbar 900. The Samsung soundbar has a dedicated sub that helps reproduce a more extended low-bass. It comes with more sound enhancement features like a graphic EQ. Unlike the Bose, it has DTS support and a Full HDMI In port for high-quality passthrough. The Bose is better built with better soundstage, surround, and Atmos performances. You can also upgrade it with a sub and satellites for better performance.
