It is hard to get a decent soundbar with actual upfiring speakers for under $400, so this is a good deal in many respects. On the other hand, everyone has different expectations. Some want the rear speakers, some are wanting this as their primary television set up, and others may use for a secondary television, i.e.: bedroom. Here are some key points:
The Samsung HW-Q60CF is a 3.1.2 channel soundbar system that provides a significant audio upgrade over standard TV speakers, specifically designed for those who want Dolby Atmos immersion without a complex setup. It features a dedicated center channel for clear dialogue and up-firing speakers to create a sense of height in movies and games.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • Immersive Spatial Audio: The up-firing drivers support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, creating a 3D soundstage where audio feels like it is moving above and around you.
  • Dialogue Clarity: A dedicated center speaker and Adaptive Sound technology work together to ensure voices remain crisp and clear, even during loud action scenes.
  • Seamless Samsung Integration: If you own a compatible Samsung TV, Q-Symphony allows the soundbar and TV speakers to play simultaneously for a fuller sound.
  • Ease of Use: It features HDMI eARC for a simple one-cable setup and can be controlled using your existing Samsung TV remote.
  • Gaming Features: The Game Mode Pro automatically optimizes audio for a more directional and responsive gaming experience.
Cons
  • No Wi-Fi Connectivity: This model lacks built-in Wi-Fi, meaning it does not support Apple AirPlay, Chromecast, or Spotify Connect.
  • Limited Smart Features: There is no support for Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, and it cannot be controlled via the SmartThings app.
  • Bluetooth Only for Music: Without Wi-Fi, wireless music streaming is limited to Bluetooth, which may result in lower audio quality compared to Wi-Fi streaming.
  • Virtual Surround: While it creates a wide soundstage, it lacks dedicated rear speakers, so true "behind-the-head" surround sound is limited unless you purchase a separate wireless rear speaker kit.
