If you bought a brand new TV over the holidays and you’re looking for a good audio solution at an excellent price, then one of the best Black Friday deals is back. Walmart is currently offering the Bose Smart Soundbar 550 for just $199 with free shipping after a massive $300 off instant discount. At this price, it’s certainly one of the best soundbars you can get, especially if you’re looking for an affordable soundbar that supports Dolby Atmos.
60% Off Bose Smart Soundbar 550
The Bose Smart Soundbar 550 measures a relatively compact 27″ long and is a great complement to any TV sized 32″ and higher. It houses a total of five speakers including two upward-firing speakers for Dolby Atmos compatiblity. If your content doesn’t support Atmos, Bose uses its proprietary TrueSpace technology to simulate spatial audio. Another nifty feature is Bose’s A.I. Dialogue Mode, which does a great job detecting dialogue in video content and amplifying the voices.
True to its namesake, the Smart Soundbar 550 is a smart-enabled speaker with both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Pair with with the Bose app on your mobile device to sync and stream via Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, and more. You can also pair it with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa for voice control.
This was one of the best and most popular soundbar deals on Black Friday, and it’s good to see it return for 2025. If you’re looking for more options, check out our best soundbar picks of 2025.
