Soundbars recommendations

So,I'm going to buy Philips 65OLED820,i've never been into soundbars that much and i don't know what is the best price to value.
I'm looking for either 3.1.2 or 5.1.2 but without the additional speakers,as i sadly don't have a possibility to connect them to power without making a mess honestly. So just the soundbar + sub.Looking for something worth up to 640$.
Thanks for any help and sorry for bad english at times.

If you get the JBL Bar series, it has wireless satellite speakers that can detach from the soundbar and operate off of battery power. Only thing is it’ll require recharging. Just an option if you do want the addition of satellites.

Go for the JBL soundbars. If you want just a bar and sub, Jbl Bar 500 mk2.

You can get the jbl bar 800 mk2. That soundbar has detachable speakers which run on battery. It will function as your rear speakers. When you are done, you connect them back to the bar again.

I've seen a lot of recommendations for the JBL 500mk2 and Hisense AX5140Q, so I bought both to compare and keep one. The JBL has great bass, but the virtual 5.1.4 isn't effective and voices aren't clear, even with the pure voice option. The Hisense has nice real surround, but the subwoofer is weak and muddy, and voices are also unclear. Sometimes the surround sound cuts out, but either way, the subwoofer is a letdown. Any advice? I'm leaning towards keeping the Hisense for its real surround and budget, but I'm struggling with these issues. Any recommendations for enhancing output and to corrent these issues? which ine to keep or is better to look into different, affordable sound system? Thanks!
