It measures 215 x 385 x 304mm (WxHxD), weighs 7kg and is designed to complement the soundbar itself. Unlike many of Samsung’s recent soundbars, the N650 comes with a separate wireless active subwoofer. The right hand recess has an HDMI input, an HDMI output with ARC (Audio Return Channel), and a connector for the separate power supply. In the left hand recess you’ll find a USB port, a 3.5mm auxiliary audio jack, and an optical digital audio input. The connections are located in two recessed sections at the bottom of the soundbar. It’s well designed and comfortable to hold, with all the necessary buttons sensibly laid out, making controlling the N650 as intuitive as possible. The provided remote is excellent, and a far cry from the credit card-sized controllers often included with soundbars.
To the right of this display, on the end plate, are some basic controls for power, input selection and volume. This lights up when you use the controls, and provides information on the volume, inputs and various settings. On the front of the soundbar, over on the far right, there is a simple LED display.
