Samsung HW-B400F
Score: 57/100Rankings
The Polk Signa S3 offers a low-profile 2.1-channel soundbar with built-in Chromecast and Google Assistant, providing easy streaming and dialogue enhancement. Its limited channel configuration and lack of detailed power specifications restrict surround-sound performance. Best suited for users who want a simple, affordable upgrade for modest TV setups.
The Samsung HW-B400F is a compact 2.0-channel soundbar with a built-in woofer that delivers solid bass for small spaces. It lacks a wireless subwoofer and advanced formats like Dolby Atmos, limiting immersive surround capabilities. Ideal for users seeking a simple, low-power sound solution for bedrooms or home offices.
