Samsung Electronics America today introduced the new Sound Tower (ST50F and ST40F models), its latest innovation in portable audio. Built for large gatherings, these new models combine advanced acoustic technology with a dynamic, modern design to deliver an immersive party experience through both light and sound.
“The new Sound Tower sets a new standard in how consumers experience entertainment in both indoor and outdoor settings,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “With customizable lighting effects and an upgraded form factor that produces fully encompassing sound, it underscores Samsung’s commitment to providing innovative audio solutions for the diverse lifestyles of customers.”
Designed for versatility, the Sound Tower’s bold, geometric form, integrated lighting and transport-ready build make it as visually striking as it is functional. It redefines portable party audio with a balance of power, design and convenience. The new models also feature the Samsung Grip & Roll design, with a bottom grip slot and integrated handle on the ST40F model, and the addition of wheels and a telescopic handle on the ST50F model for effortless mobility. Each model has been designed to deliver an elevated audio experience that matches a variety of needs:
Upgraded LED lighting extends across five key areas of the speaker to deliver a 360° effect:
- Track light: an iconic LED racetrack-style light that surrounds the two woofer units to display vivid patterns.
- Ring light: LED lights highlight powerful colors around the two tweeter units.
- Line lights: four perimeter line lights that frame the body of the speaker for a moody effect.
- Crystal lights: centered at the base and the foot of the speaker to produce an energizing atmosphere.
- Handle light: doubles as a functional detail, illuminating the control panel and providing support for a tablet or smartphone for easy interaction and control of music and settings.
Powerful Party Sound
The Sound Tower’s redesigned acoustic structure delivers rich, room-filling sound with exceptional clarity and deep bass. With Samsung Waveguide technology applied to its dual dome tweeters, audio is distributed and enhanced to ensure a wider, more even soundstage. This optimization provides crisp treble that can be heard clearly, while dual woofers deliver customizable bass with Deep, Punchy and Gentle modes, which allow you to tailor the experience to your preferences. Four additional sound modes — Standard, Wide, Stadium and Outdoor — let you further fine-tune your audio to match any setting, from backyard barbecues to packed dance floors.
Whether indoors or outdoors, you can enjoy long-lasting performance with up to 18 hours of untethered playtime on a single charge. This rechargeable battery ensures the party can continue without interruption, while IPX4 water resistance offers peace of mind during outdoor use. For an even more immersive soundscape, you can connect multiple units through Auracast™ Group Play or pair two Sound Towers via Stereo Play with True Wireless Stereo (TWS) for true left-right channel audio.
Vibrant Party Lights+ For Every Mood
The Sound Tower’s Party Lights+ system transforms any gathering into an immersive audiovisual experience. With five mood presets and six dynamic lighting patterns, you can set the perfect vibe using the revamped Samsung Sound Tower App, which provides seamless control of your lights and acoustic preferences.
The system reacts in real time, analyzing music beats and frequencies to activate dozens of LEDs in sync with the rhythm. Customizable mood options include a wide range of effects, movements and colors, including Wave, Trail, Spark, Breeze, Flow and Flare — making it easy to create atmospheres that range from “Festival” to “Chill.”
For added entertainment, built-in DJ Booth and Karaoke modes — as well as a guitar input — turn any space into a live stage, combining powerful sound and lighting for a true party-ready experience.
Portable and Built to Last
The new Samsung Sound Tower will be available this month at Samsung.com and other select retailers. The ST50F will have an MSRP of $699.99 and the ST40F will have an MSRP of $499.99. For more information on the 2025 Samsung audio lineup, please visit here.
