Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Samsung Da F60

  • Sleek and premium metallic design
  • Clear, warm, and balanced sound signature
  • Convenient one-touch NFC Bluetooth pairing
  • Excellent battery life for portable use
  • Useful SoundShare feature for wireless connection to compatible Samsung TVs
  • Lossless apt-X codec support for high-quality audio streaming
  • Power bank functionality to charge external devices via USB

What customers don't like about Samsung Da F60

  • Lacks deep low-end bass response
  • Relies on a bulky proprietary charger rather than a standard USB port for power
  • Protective fabric cover can muffle audio quality and cause vibration noise if left on during playback
  • High-pitched treble notes can occasionally sound harsh at high volumes
  • Relatively expensive price tag compared to market competitors

Verdict

The Samsung DA-F60 is a portable 2.0-channel stereo Bluetooth speaker measuring 131x225x47mm and weighing just over 1 kg, delivering a total RMS output power of 20W (10W x 2) through compact neodymium drivers, a passive bass radiator, and apt-X codec support. Key advantages include convenient one-touch NFC pairing, Samsung SoundShare connectivity for syncing with compatible TVs, a built-in power bank feature via its rear USB port to charge smartphones, and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery providing up to 12 hours of playback. However, notable drawbacks include its lack of a USB charging option for the speaker itself, requiring a proprietary AC charger instead, sound distortion or muddiness at high volumes compared to rivals, and a protective front cover that severely muffles audio if left on during playback.
