The packaging is great. The sound bar arrived with no instructions but were easily found on google. The directions are not that great. Be sure watch the video on google and be sure to plug into the OUT of the bar or you will be frustrated with nothing happening. The remote may not link right away but it eventually will. After that, the set up is very easy. The most difficult part of this process is entering all of your pass words for all the apps. Other than that, the set up is pretty normal. The sound quality seems great as is. I am have not figured out how to use the EQ, or the sound functions other than what is being played though normal. There is nothing in the manual or on google for sound adjustment options. But is does sound good. There is NO support at all with Verizon so DO not call and ask for help. I did and found out the hard way that there is no support on this product even though it has the Verizon name and logo all over it. Do not expect the same great tech support you get with your cell phone. I was told if you don't like it, return it. This sound bars works great if you do not have a smart tv. It makes it smart.

Poor Sound Quality

Setting up wasn't easy (by ARC). The sound quality leaves a lot of room for improvement. A single HomePod mini has significantly better sound quality than this bar. It's been a big disappointment.

Very poorly designed. I am still trying to configure this for Dolby Sound input. Only works for Stereo input and almost impossible to make Bluetooth connection work.

This sound at has been nothing but problems, I owe two and use different tv models, same issues. ARC is simply broken, works initially then I get the volume not working, random pops and cracks. Google TV portion needs work as well, no Dolby vision out put to either TVs, aspect ration in apps like Max is wrong. Do not waste your money.

I know the brand and the sound they produce is by far one of the best, how what I was not expecting was to be presented with VERIZON branded everything on this from setup to finish and the sound is eh…

Lacking in Booming Bass

I really wanted to like this product. The clarity of it and Android TV works and sounds great but the bass cranked to "10" in the settings (as high as it can go) left me longing for more thump. I wish there were a subwoofer add on. As someone else mentioned, this would probably be best in a small room. I couldn't justify the cost (even with the $350 credit I received) with the quality of sound. So, I am returning it.

I’m really trying to like this. I did get this with a $300 off promotional credit plus $200 credit in the Verizon store. But even at $500 I’m having a hard time justifying the value. For a soundbar there are minimal adjustments that can be made. Both wall and table mounted it gives the sound a boost. But the immersion I expected is basically absent with Atmos content. This bar is best suited for a bedroom or small living room. To think I paid $1,300 for a Samsung Q990b which is basically $300 more than the B&O, and it provides mind boggling immersion, base, clarity, and adjustment I can’t imagine buying this at $1,000. Even picture adjustments are difficult because the android interface uses all sorts of terminology that maybe .05% of the population actually knows what it’s doing. The remote provides no settings button to adjust things while watching content so you set and hope you got it right. It’s infuriating. The bar, placed 3’ away from my Wi-Fi seems to struggle to keep an internet connection. The video seems washed out and dull when compared to my TV’s Roku interface. The Android OS also seems laggier and my TV is 6 years old. I’m debating returning it and getting a Bose or Sonos. It’s just too underwhelming for what it should be. There is a lot to be learned here by Verizon and B&O when it comes to providing a product like this. The OS while not hard for me to understand would easily be for many. Google needs to work on making adjustments available in-content as well as more easy to understand adjustments. The lack of sound adjustment is ridiculous for something that’s main purpose is to provide sound. I have no clue when the soundbar is processing Atmos—if it is at all and it does not sound like it despite being fed that content. B&O should be weary of developing and compromising on a product that does not live up to their level of quality. Again, I’m giving it a few more days but as of now I’m leaning toward returning it. There are better options at or below the same price that provide better sound and better adjustability.

Not a BeoSound Stage, but still great! Probably better value too!

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

This isn't a Bang & Olufsen BeoSound Stage with 2 woofers removed to allow for the built in Android TV. First off, while it has the same shape as the Stage, the Verizon unit is just plastic. Not surprising, and likely a big contributor to why the price is so much lower than the Stage. Drivers and placement are different. I am unsure if the tweeters and tiny mids are different, but the 2 larger woofers are definitely different. Additionally the outer tweeters and mids are aimed to be height type units on the Stage, but they are just front facing (or straight up if placed on a desk). Again, this makes sense to keep costs down. Finally, one I knew going in, no app, just a few basic adjustments within the settings of the unit. So what does all of this translate to? Well, to my ears this is an amazing sounding soundbar that does surprisingly well for music. It also has bass that really boggles my mind as far as how is it possible. It also of course handles TV and movies very well. In my use I preferred it in the wall mount position so that the drivers face forward. I felt like the upward firing gave a better spacious impact and I liked it very well as I first tried it that way, however, it moved to 5 stars when the drivers faxed me. I would love to hear a Stage for comparison, but it is hard to imagine it coming close on value at such a premium price. As stated there is a drop in materials that goes beyond the far less premium finishes that are apparent at a quick glance, but it still looks great and seems like a premium item. Finally, I have messed with the streaming some and it seems to be effective, but I am not a huge fan of the chosen layout. Overall I wouldn't want to pay full price, but when a sale can get the price down or if you find a used one like I did then I easily give this 5 stars.
