AirPlay 2, Alexa, and a premium design headline Samsung’s 5-Ch. AiO Soundbar: $198 (Save $80)

Reg. $278+/$198

Amazon is offering the Samsung 5-channel All-in-One Alexa Soundbar for $197.99 shipped. Typically sold for $278 or higher, today’s offer takes a minimum of $80 off and is a match for the lowest price we have tracked just once before. If you’d like to improve your home theater’s audio without adding a bulky subwoofer, this premium soundbar is worth a look. A “panoramic soundscape” awaits thanks to the implementation of “side horn speakers and Samsung Acoustic Beam Technology.” Built-in Alexa makes it a cinch to toggle lights and all of your other smart home devices hands-free. This offering is smart enough to automatically tweak settings based on each scene to boost quiet voices and more. Inputs include HDMI, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, and more.

It ushers in up to 91-decibels of “room filling, crystal clear sound.” Built-in Bluetooth paves the way for wireless pairing with a smartphone, tablet, and more. This soundbar also wields support for DTS Virtual:X, which is ready to deliver a 3D sound experience.
