Hisense AX5125H soundbar : was £244.99 now £189.05 at Amazon

One of the best budget soundbars of recent years, the Hisense AX5125H strikes a balance between affordability and exceptional surround sound performance. It may be light on features, but when it comes to sound quality, it easily outclasses its price. This deal knocks this budget soundbar system to £189, a new record-low and a steal!

Hisense is not a name that immediately comes to mind when you think of the best soundbars, but the Hisense AX5125H should be in the soundbar conversation in the budget price range.

When I tested the AX5125H, I was seriously impressed with its effective surround sound. Watching movies such as Star Wars: A New Hope, specifically the Death Star attack at the movie's climax, Dolby Atmos effects were precise and accurately placed, the sound was clear and the bass surprisingly punchy. The rear speakers are on the smaller side, so surround effects may get lost in a larger space, but for their size, the performance is impressive.

The AX5125H also features Bluetooth for music streaming and supports both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. It may lack other features such as Wi-Fi streaming, but it's an exceptional value for what it offers. You won't find another 5.1.2-channel, 500W soundbar system for this cheap.
