How to connect a Soundbar to the TV using Bluetooth

If your TV comes with a Smart Remote then it supports Bluetooth as that's how the remote pairs to the TV. 

To check whether your Samsung TV is Bluetooth compatible,  go to Settings > Sound > Sound Output.  If the option Bluetooth Speaker List appears, then your TV supports Bluetooth.

A Bluetooth connection does not provide the same sound quality as HDMI, but it's been loved because of its advantage of being wireless. The main challenge with Bluetooth is that the connection can be unstable due to external factors like a power outage or other electrical devices. Follow the steps below to connect your external speakers through Bluetooth.

Step 3. Select the Bluetooth Speaker List.

Step 4. Select your Bluetooth speaker and then select Pair and Connect.

Method 1: Disconnect the power cord of the external speaker and connect again.

Method 2: Delete every speaker from the Bluetooth speaker list of the TV. Find your Bluetooth speaker again and reconnect. (TV Home menu > Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List)
