A very good option!
on November 1, 2024
Posted by: Anthony
Exceptional size and blew my expectations out of the water. I was able to cast the entire wall in one of my bedrooms as a movie theater size picture. The volume on the projection it self is perfect for a decent sized room. I was also able to pair the projector with Bluetooth to a Samsung sound bar and surround sound which made it really sound like a movie theater. The only room for improvement would be the Lumens of the projection, in aspect I thought it could be a-little brighter, but again not to shabby for a device the size of a Amazon Alexa.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great, but..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use our Freestyle for watching movies and games when there are a lot of guests over. Especially around football season, the guys will project it onto our outdoor screen.
We've noticed lately that it runs hot and that it's not performing as well as it did. Given that we don't use it very often, I'm not particularly pleased with that aspect. It is a convenient little device.
I wish it could be cordless for.more functionality and autonomy, but it works for what it works for.

Response from Samsung USBy Samsung Specialist, November 4, 2024
LifewithLexi,
Thank you for your review of The Freestyle 2nd Gen. Watching content for an extended period of time can cause the unit to generate heat, which is released through the vents on the projector. The vents may feel hot to the touch when the projector has been used for an extended period of time. This heat, however, is not a defect and doesn’t affect functionality. When in use, make sure you maintain a distance of at least 4 inches between the projector and other objects (walls, cabinet sides, etc.) to ensure proper ventilation.
Please also keep in mind that with voice recognition always enabled, the projector’s Wi-Fi and microphone modules remain active even when the power is turned off. If you feel heat even when the device is off, turn off AoV (Always on Voice) Mode.
To disable this setting, go to: Menu > Settings > General & Privacy > Voice
- Alexa: Turn off Voice Wake-Up
- Bixby: Under Bixby wake-up options, select “Only use the Bixby button” or “Additionally saying ‘Hi Bixby’”.
If you need more help, Samsung is here for you. Please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Our LiveChat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.

Awesome projector for price and size
on November 25, 2024
Posted by: Cipracingteam
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is amazing. The size makes it easy to have anywhere and the internal speaker is pretty loud. Video quality is super clean and light is perfect. It has all the apps for streaming and is super fun to play Mario cart on. Recommended for adults who love moves or kids to game with.
