Hisense HS1800 2.1 Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer, 140W

Our review

The Hisense HS1800 is a 2.1 channel soundbar rated at 140W maximum audio power, and it ships with a wireless subwoofer rather than a wired one. That combination is aimed at people who want noticeably fuller sound than a television's built-in speakers can manage, especially for films and series where low-end rumble matters. Bass Boost gives you a one-touch way to lift that low end further when a scene calls for it. Connection options cover HDMI ARC, Bluetooth streaming and a USB port, so a TV, phone or tablet can all feed it. HDMI ARC is the input worth checking first: if your television supports it, volume control and power can often follow the TV remote, which keeps day-to-day use simple. Bluetooth is the more flexible route for music from a phone. Before buying, confirm your TV's available outputs and whether you have space for a separate subwoofer near a power socket, since wireless still needs mains power at the sub. Compare it with other 2.1 soundbars that include a subwoofer, and weigh whether HDMI ARC matters to you or whether Bluetooth alone would do. It is available on Sokonia.
