How disappointing, the set up was clunky, the remote has so many glitches, so much so that only a few features work. One example ( of many issues), I need to press the power button multiple times to get it to action. It turns on then turns off straight away, and the same when trying to turn it on.

The 700 Bose soundbar and 700 subwoofer with Alexia is STRICTLY AMAZING. No issues with system but be advised the subwoofer is super powerful had my ears ringing but love every minute of the base with playing music. I have a 3500 square foot house and the base carries throughout the house.

Great sound and aesthetics; Easy to use with the apps

Initial set up was quite difficult; Finally got the right link from Bose India website; The link that came with the app was not functional

The Bose Soundbar 700 simply isn't quite up to scratch. Frankly, it feels like an overpriced smart speaker with an HDMI connection, rather than a soundbar with voice assistant features built-in. Mind you, the same could be said about the Sonos Playbar.

ADAPTiQ audio calibration; Built-in Alexa and Google Assistant; Excellent app integration

Fails to deliver an engaging sound; Doesn't support Dolby Atmos or DTX:S; Oversized remote control

Sounds great...isnt that what it is all about I didnt quite have the room for audio separates so I begrudgingly installed the Bose 700 soundbar with a subwoofer and I couldnt be more pleased. It has worked flawlessly since being installed 3 months ago. It sounds fantastic and is sexy as heck.

The Bose Soundbar 700 certainly feels like a high-end product with a super finish and some excellent features. If you want one or both of the main smart assistants this soundbar has you covered, and the ADAPTiQ audio calibration ensures the sonic performance is often impressive.

Solid front soundstage; Effective remote app; Attractive design; ADAPTiQ audio calibration; EARC support; Built-in Alexa/Google Assistant

No additional HDMI inputs; No Atmos/DTS:X support; Top is too reflective; Annoying remote control; Lacking in bass

Bose’s Soundbar 700 might replace your smart speaker, but it’s no substitute for a properly cinematic audio system

“Bose brings stellar looks, superb sound, and features galore to this soundbar.”

Enthralling surround sound; Gorgeous design; Choice of Alexa or Google Assistant; Private listening option; Smart universal remote; AirPlay 2

Not the best value; Some music services not supported; No Chromecast option for Android; No HDMI inputs

The Bose Soundbar 700 looks smart, sounds smart and actually is smart thanks to the inclusion of both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. However a lack of HDMI inputs, no Atmos/DTS:X support and a glass top that reflects the TV screen isn’t quite so smart at this price.

Big front soundstage; Excellent remote app; ADAPTiQ audio calibration; Alexa/Google Assistant built-in

Light on bass; No Atmos/DTS:X; No HDMI inputs; Reflective top
