Samsung HW-Q80R review
Comparing Samsung HW-Q80R vs Bose Soundbar 700 we can see that we deal with 5.1.2 and 3.0 configuration. Thanks to the end-to-end transmission of 4K video, you can easily watch 4K video from sources such as UBD players or game consoles. The soundbar supports sources with HDR 10 technology, allowing you to enjoy sound with the same high quality as video quality. Just connect the content source to the HDMI connector and that's it. Now you do not need to have several remote controls. You can control the on / off, volume and even sound effects of the soundbar using the TV remote control. 
Bose Soundbar 700 review
Thanks to an upscale glass panel, a metal grill and sophisticated contours, the soundbar appearance is not inferior to its excellent sound quality. With its glass panel, metal grill, clean lines and sophisticated finishes, the BOSE Soundbar 700 is just as beautiful on the outside as on the inside. Place the soundbar on the TV stand or gently mount it on the wall. In any case, it is pleasant to the eyes and hearing. With Amazon Alexa's virtual assistant built into the BOSE Soundbar 700, you can use your voice commands to control music from various sources. 
Samsung HW-Q80R pros & cons
Pros
- Touch sensitive buttons on the soundbar for volume level, inputs, and basically everything you need in a quick layout
- The controller is comfortable to hold. I found the enjoyment of seeing buttons for setting treble, bass, audio sync, and the levels of the various speakers
Cons
- Only two HDMI inputs. Basically your TV and a gaming console
