      I own a Samsung HW-Q990C (firmware SAT-iMX8M23WWC-1010.5) - your $1,500 flagship soundbar from 2023.

      Spotify lossless rolled out in September 2025. It's now December 25, 2025. My soundbar STILL does not support it via Spotify Connect.

      Here's what makes this inexcusable:

      1. The Q990C hardware NATIVELY SUPPORTS FLAC - proven by every review
      2. Samsung's own 2025 models (Q990F, Q800D) received Spotify lossless support
      3. The latest firmware update (1010.5, December 2024) IGNORED this issue
      4. Hundreds of Q990C, Q990B, Q930B owners are reporting the same problem

      This is not a hardware limitation. This is Samsung deliberately abandoning premium customers who paid $1,500 for a "flagship" product.

      I'm not asking for new features. I'm asking Samsung to honor the Spotify Connect support you advertised and enable what the hardware can already do.

      Samsung: Either push a firmware update, offer free upgrades to Q990F, or explain why you're treating paying customers like garbage.

      Other Q990C owners: Add your voices. This is unacceptable.

      Can someone from the Samsung support team respond if a firmware update is going to be released, in order for the soundbars to support lossless tracks via spotify connect?

      Same here, contacted Spotify, but they referred to Samsung, I have a Q990B soundbar. Lossless is only possible via wired connection with my Sony android TV. By smartphone it does not work.
