Worked great for a few months before no charge
on August 16, 2023
Posted by: ElCh13fo
Same as every low rating here. Worked fine (~2.5 hours) for a few months and now it just completely stopped charging. Contacted support, they 'escalated' it a number of weeks ago and nothing has been heard.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

MaxnKitty,
It's unfortunate to hear of the issues you’re experiencing when charging The Freestyle Battery Base. Please check the following which may help resolve this:
- Confirm the charging cable is connected to the bottom USB port (IN & 10W OUT), as this charges the Battery Base. The top USB port (50W OUT) powers The Freestyle Projector.
- Make sure you’re using the adapter (EP-TA865) included with your Freestyle to charge.
- Try charging at room temperature or temperatures ranging from 32~95℉. If the ambient temperature is too high or low, charging speeds may decrease due to control measures to protect the device.
- Check the charging port for any damage, defects, or obstructions.
- Ensure the cable is properly attached with all contact pins intact.
Please also keep in mind the following usage conditions when using the Battery Base:
- The dedicated battery for The Freestyle can be used for a maximum of 3 hours.
- If the battery is used outside of normal usage conditions, the battery may be damaged, or the lifespan may be shortened.
I hope these tips help.
For further assistance, please contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Or visit us on the Samsung website and click on the ‘Support’ link for:

Works just fine!
on July 8, 2023
Posted by: Scrawnyb
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had no issues with this thing, from buying to setting up; it was perfectly uneventful! That is how I prefer setting things up, so A+ on that front. I recommend. There isn't much else to say; it's working great!
