Exactly!

I should just use this comment as the review because I'm in the same position as you were

How loud is this please we currently have a sound bar at work it's going so lookin for a new one thay isn't too expensive but needs to be loud enough for a noisy workplace

alex is compatible with netflix ?

This was a month ago, how do you feel about it now? Still enjoying it?

Yeah m8 still enjoying it thanx. It can take a minute or so for the sound to kick in when you 1st switch it on but I'm not complaining about it, just pointing it out but yeah I'd absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for something decent that doesn't leave you visiting food banks for a few weeks because you're potless 👍

Does it has some grille(protection for subwoofer) or not , because if it will be mount on the wall have a risk to damage the sub...

@@user-pt1rr4tx4q the subwoofer is quite hidden under the soundbar, you can never tell theres a subwoofer until you touch and feel it. But one thing - The sound quality is very impressive with the deeper bass punches this soundbar has, so its totally worth it.

Will this work with my Hisense tv remote my tv has arc

Its been a few days of using it as my desktop speaker via Aux and Bluetooth, and I've noticed it has a weird foible of sometimes cutting the first couple of seconds of newly started sounds. It seems to happen mostly when there is a dead silent gap in sound from the source, ie switching between youtube tabs, new paragraphs in spoken word etc. Probably due to some sort of power management setting, but it's nothing I can't tolerate for the sound and form factor.

@@ettcha how do you fit this under your desktop 😂 I have it connected to our family tv, the best thing I love about this soundbar is the power of bass it can produce compared to all the others out there (which don't have an external sub-woofer) - so compact and full sound package. I just didn't feel the deeper bass punches in other soundbars from like Sony & Paiyda, (at £100 price especially ) the built in subwoofer is on a different level in this soundbar - quite impressive overall

@@theweeknd2725 Its only a few centimetres wider than my monitor. If I had the 32" version of my monitor, It would look even better! It isn't magnetically shielded though, so if anyone ever tries this, never put your platter drives too close to it! I hear you on some soundbars sounding bad in comparison. The ones in the same price bracket where I am either sounded weak or were cheaply built brands with dated features and poor quality external subs.

I read some user reviews and it says that the volume only goes up 5 steps i.e. 1 is lowest, and 5 is highest. Is that true? My current Samsung soundbar has at least 30 steps.

Actually, I just read someone else's comment here, and they say it's "increments of 5", and not limited to 1-5. So the more important question is, how is the fine-tuning on the volume?

@@chicofoxo There is no way to tell so I would have to say that reviewer was guessing but my TV 100 and I'd say he's not far off on the soundbar though. It's perfect for my needs but wouldn't be for someone who wants extreme volume.

I'm a abit late but the LED can be dimmed or switched off

@@edkes123 I traded up for the TCL 8I, its a much better all in one.

@@johnstonejaxfldoxmebitch7388 as far as far as I know the TCL 8i has some issues with high latency, that would be a dealbreakerfor me otherwise it would be a real bargain.

@@CarlosBaracudas I haven't seen any, maybe with a shitty HDMI cable or Optical, but I'm using the ARC port and the audio is perfectly synced. The only issue I have had is on occasion when I turn off or reboot my android box, the soundbar disconnects and the TV defaults back to internal speakers. A mild aggravation but otherwise I'm very happy. TCL oversold the Atmos capability of this thing though. LOL

Yes, I looked into it and it supposedly can be dimmed or even shut off completely which is absolutely necessary for me and a key feature that made my decision easier to make. Nothing more annoying than those lights I'd say. I actually go around the house and use duct tape on all lighting of this sort. I have heard about some initial latency issues at the point of turning it on to use it but that's okay, the price is right. I will let you know more once I receive it should there be an issue.

I found it!: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/abp_n7FqybLUmWw.html

It seems to be a firmware issue. Try and update the firmware by getting it from the Hisense website and put it on a USB drive to update the firmware.

Before you do that, first check if your TV supports HDMI arc. If it does then there will be a HDMI port on your TV that states "ARC". Plug your HDMI cable in there and then plug it into your soundbar, that's it. Your other HDMI connected devices or smart TV apps will use your soundbar as the audio source as a result. Hope this helps mate?

yup no other soundbar like it at £100

it competes with £150+ soundbars with the impressive sound it can produce, its actually amazing

Hy, did you sort it out cause I’m struggling with the same issue

It's on the remote according to another comment.

Put a small tape...

I don't think you are doing anything wrong. From my observation, the soundbar will cut out after there is a 4 or so second silence from the source audio (like between songs or gaps in dialogue). It then takes another couple of seconds to cut back in as soon as the silence in the source ends. This has been true for me using the 3.5mm jack and Bluetooth, but I'm not sure if it's the same for the other inputs. My best guess is that it's an aggressive power management thing. Really stupid and annoying If you ask me. My simple fix has been to keep background audio going at all time, for example, having music play at very low volume when I'm listening to audio books, or playing white noise at very low volume when I'm playing a game (adding more ambient sound in the game settings is also an option, but that can come with performance penalties). I know the unit has a firmware version mentioned in the documentation, but I don't think it is user updatable. You either live with it like me, contact support about swapping for one with a newer version which may not have fixed the issue or just return it for a refund (the issue is easy to reproduce if you learn the exact timing)

Search for 'Merzbow'

I’m trying to figure this too did you ever find out?

You need the socket that says 'hdmi arc'.

Did you manage to get any info

@@rwothomiojulius7562 HAHA yes! I bought one and it sucked. Not much better than the tv speakers and could barely hear the sub set to the highest level. Also, could not get the lip sync right. Sent it back for a refund.

@@biggetl1319 thanx for the info you've saved me from making a mistake

Hi was thinking of getting this, but was wondering how you're getting along. What is the maximum volume value? 50? 100? Even if it jumps by 5, do you find the volume adjustment to be sufficient?

I returned it, overall it was junk, aside from the above issue the other major issue was that the volume would increase by it self and keep on increasing. I bought a Samsung I do not have the model number in front of me It cost $400 a supper pro unit. I guess not possible to build a decent unit for $100

@@chicofoxo The granularity is very coarse, so if you are trying to be very quiet, you may have to adjust on the source side in addition to the sound bars volume. There is no display, so its hard to tell by what values the volume adjusts, but it can go pretty loud. Depending on what you are listening to, you may have to reduce the bass to take the volume to max without distortion. Its not for critical listening, but for the price its not too bad. Just be aware that some units (firmware versions?) have a strange quark of cutting off after a few seconds of silence, then continuing a few seconds into new sounds. If you listen to stuff with sizeable gaps i.e. audio books, songs with long fade outs etc, you may want to skip it or at least try it instore.

It's a soundbar. It doesn't use proprietary connections. Of course it'll work well. That doesn't mean you'll get the best sound quality at $100.

I don't use this I gave it to a friend, but still recommend it.

It's magnificent!

turn the bass up

Use the eARC HDMI connection, not optical if you want it to turn on with the TV.

🤡

Suenan sin distorsiones bro

Ive read fast is on and slow is off, but "on" sounds horrible and hollow

@@joshriley3867 if the fast beat is on then it does sound like shit

No, not even an external subwoofer.

You didn't update the comment.

When are you updating the comment????????????????..

Brexit. In Europe amazon is based as an EU company

Optical is fixed level on any device so no, you can't

with hdmi cable you can not sure about optical - hdmi arc is perfectly synced and you can control it just like a normal tv. I prefer hdmi arc, most convenient

Yes, there is, it even comes with an optical cable

@@fm.3511 bought it. It is amazing

The voices are pretty clear, especially if the person has a deeper voice. It balances sounds decently for a single and pretty small soundbar, and it has really good bass (especially if you turn it up on the remote)

@@Ja-uu9ep thanks for the reply

have you received and installed the sound bar? In Canada as well, and thinking of getting one to beat built-in speaker from Samsung TV

@@ialonehk Yes I have, got it 5 days early and I am very happy with it. I would recommend it to anyone. Has bass control and dimmer control for LED light as well as ARC for universal remote volume control. That's if your TV has ARCHDMI input though.

you are probably hiding the IR sensor of TV with the sound bar

Yes, you can use Bluetooth or Aux. 👍🏻

Yes this have

Thank you! 😂😂😂

$99 + tax lol

@@TSPerson +shipping depending on where you live

Sounds like broke ppl complaints

@@TSPerson Oregon, no sales tax lol Save a buck!

Sometimes.

Was clear and sounded full to me, was listening with headphones.

No

Not at this price, this is just better then the tv speakers

I do, but thanks for letting me know 🙏

how is it ? im looking at the same offre and still a bit hesistant. how's the sound for youtube and movies ? and are there any cons to it ?

@@houssemayadi6992 send it back there was something lose inside sound was very good
