Walmart has reintroduced one of the most popular soundbar deals we saw during last year’s Black Friday sale. The **Bose Smart Soundbar 550**, which typically retails for $500, is now available for just **$199** with free shipping. Better yet, this deal is offered directly by Walmart—not a third-party seller—ensuring a reliable purchase experience. At this price, it's arguably one of the best soundbars you can buy under $200, especially if you're looking for a sleek, compact design with full **Dolby Atmos** support.
If you're open to a certified refurbished unit, you can grab the same model from **Woot** (an Amazon-owned retailer and authorized Bose reseller) for an even better deal: **$169.99**. Amazon Prime members enjoy free shipping, while others pay just $6 for delivery. The refurbished version still comes with the full **1-year Bose warranty**, identical to a brand-new purchase.

The **Bose Smart Soundbar 550** is a compact, low-profile soundbar measuring 27 inches in length—ideal for TVs 32 inches and larger. Inside, it features a total of five built-in speakers, including two upward-firing drivers for full **Dolby Atmos** compatibility. For non-Atmos content, Bose uses its proprietary **TrueSpace** technology to simulate immersive spatial audio. One standout feature is **Bose’s A.I. Dialogue Mode**, which intelligently enhances voice clarity in movies, shows, and more.
As a smart-enabled device, the 550 supports both **Wi-Fi and Bluetooth** connectivity. Using the Bose app, you can easily sync your mobile device and stream music via **Apple AirPlay 2**, **Spotify Connect**, and other services. It also integrates seamlessly with **Google Assistant** and **Amazon Alexa**, enabling full voice control of your audio setup.
This is the same standout deal that made waves last Black Friday, and it’s great to see it return in 2025. If you're shopping for a high-quality soundbar that delivers powerful audio, a sleek design, and smart features without breaking the bank, this is a deal worth grabbing.
