As soundbars go, the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 is one of the most attractive models on the market. That's also one of its failings though: that glass top, while certainly pretty in daylight, is also reflective and therefore causes irksome reflections while watching during low-light viewings.

The Smart Soundbar 900 adds Dolby Atmos for only $100 more, making it a superb choice for a single-speaker home theater sound system.

The Bose Smart Soundbar 900 is a soundbar you should definitely listen to if you’re looking for the biggest possible soundstage without the use of rear speakers. It’s impressive what it’s capable of.

Clever features and solid sound quality make the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 an elegant if rather expensive single-unit solution

The Bose Smart Soundbar 900 packs a bevy of features and superb sound, but we suspect its full immersive potential can only be unlocked with more speakers.

An impressively wide-sounding, articulate and crisp Dolby Atmos soundbar, but it occasionally lacks tonal consistency and authenticity

While not a cinema monster, the 900 packs premium sound and features in a gorgeous package.

For an all in one home theatre system with 3D Dolby Atmos sound, this one is a tidy solution. The Bose Smart Soundbar 900 relies on integrating with your phone and smart assistant to get the most out of it, beyond the simple remote control. Without a sub, the bass is nothing to snub either.

Great features, great performance, high price

The Bose Smart Soundbar 900 supports Atmos, has lots of features and produces good sound — though not as good as you’d expect for the price.
