Not impressed. Needs to be much brighter for the money. Samsungs operating system is okay but slow and cumbersome. Much better options. I like the look and size shame they missed the mark.

Good projector with a flaw
2 out of 5 rating
Podishetti . 22 days ago
It is a good projector for it's size and prize. I also like the way it can integrate with Smart Things and also being portable. But, I hate the way it is leaving a transparent light on the borders of the actual image/picture. I would like to request to release a new software update in which the transparent border will be removed which is so annoying to look at.

The Freestyle 2nd Gen with Gaming Hub
4 out of 5 rating
LiamEddali . 28 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Freestyle 2nd Gen with Gaming Hub is an outstanding portable projector that combines versatility, high-quality visuals, and gaming functionality. Its compact design and easy setup make it perfect for home use, outdoor movie nights, or gaming on the go.
The picture quality is sharp and vibrant, with auto-leveling and auto-focus features ensuring a hassle-free experience. The addition of the Gaming Hub is a highlight, allowing seamless access to cloud gaming platforms. Paired with a strong internet connection, it delivers smooth and responsive gameplay.
The built-in speaker provides clear audio, suitable for small to medium spaces. For larger areas or a more immersive experience, connecting external speakers is recommended.
Navigating the interface is intuitive, and voice control adds convenience. The 180-degree swivel design offers flexibility for projecting onto various surfaces, including ceilings, enhancing its usability.
While the device is nearly flawless, a brighter output and longer battery life would make it even better for outdoor or extended use.
Overall, the Freestyle 2nd Gen with Gaming Hub is a fantastic all-in-one device for streaming and gaming, offering exceptional performance and portability. It’s a must-have for those seeking quality entertainment anywhere.

Portable, easy to set up and easier to use

LosVegas . 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have loved how small and portable it is. It has been easy to take anywhere. Set up was a breeze. We connected it to our phones and linked several streaming services and it was all complete in less than 10 minutes. Great picture quality but nothing less would be expected from a Samsung

jrPigFreestyle . 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Freestyle replaced an older projector, that was 3 times larger. And am very happy that I did.
What I like about freestyle:
It's compact. A quality speaker eliminates the need for an external speaker. And built in wifi and apps eliminates additional cables.
It is smart. When I invite my neighbors for a backyard movie night, I love the way that Freestyle auto-corrects the projection angle. It gives me so much flexibility in positioning the projector
It is sharp. Even with a little daylight, yhe image is clear, sharp, and bright. So we don't have to wait until it is pitch black to enjoy it.
It is fun. Sometimes, kids and I lay on the floor and project the video onto the ceiling. And we also use the features for projecting holiday images outdoor, like Halloween, Christmas. And during parties, we have it playing old photos and videos in the background

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
So great I bought 5! I might make an epic halo deck from startrek, or one heck of a flight simulator setup, or continue to use them in each room. They are so very awesome 😎
