    I knew why I chose this projector, so I’m okay about everything, with all its pros and cons. Can say that sometimes feels that picture isnt that sharp and brightness not enough to be happy with it for 100%. But as far as I researched its still a really good option for that price.

      Hi Theo,

      We appreciate your feedback on The Freestyle 2nd Gen's brightness level. If the image is too dim or blurry, try adjusting Picture Mode, Contrast, Brightness, or Sharpness settings.
      Go to Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > Picture > Picture Mode
      ...and select the mode that best fits your usage:
      Dynamic: Makes the picture brighter and clearer in bright viewing environments.
      Standard: Is the default mode suitable for general viewing environments
      Movie: Is suitable for watching Projector or movies in a dark room.

      You can also manually fine tune your image under Expert Settings. Go to: Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > Picture > Expert Settings

      If the screen still looks blurry, use the Focus function: Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > Projector Settings > Focus
      1. Move the projector to the left or right to adjust its angle. Alternatively, adjust the top and bottom angles until the screen shape becomes rectangular.
      2. Move the Projector back and forth to adjust the screen size.

      I hope these tips help you enjoy your new product.
      You can always contact us for further help 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.

    The product was impressive when it worked. I am, however, very disappointed in the product longevity and support. It was great for a year, and then suddenly stopped working. When I say a year, I mean almost literally a year. I brought this home on December 22, 2024 (an am writing this review on December 23, 2025). A few days ago we noticed a chirping sound coming from the area where the projector was placed. We couldn't quite figure out what was making the sound until yesterday when we realized it was the power adapter from the projector. Last night we went to use the projector, only to find it wouldn't turn on. There was no standby light, or anything. We thought maybe it had died, so we moved it elsewhere to charge for a bit. After a while, still no standby light, so we used a different cable. After several cables and outlets failed to charge or power-up the device, it was clear the unit was faulty. Today I called Samsung support for assistance, only to learn that the 1-year manufacturer warranty expired in November, about 10-11 months after I purchased the $800 device. I was told that if I wanted to pay extra, I could setup an appointment to have somebody come and try to repair the device. I highly doubt repair is possible with this type of device, or financially sensible even if possible. After being told there was nothing that could be done for me, my support call ended. Moments later, a text came through asking for the Serial Number of the device. I was a little excited, thinking maybe Samsung had a change of heart, and would be able to help after all. I provided the serial number. I was then asked for the Model Code, which I provided as well. It wasn't long before I realized I was in some bot-loop with a non-human. Samsung simply had a an automated bot sending me the same few messages, over and over, leading me to believe there was potential for resolution. How disappointing. As I said at the beginning, the device was terrific for the time we had it. $800 is quite expensive, but we felt it was well on its way to delivering that type of value. Sadly, it stopped working almost a year later, coincidentally right outside of my warranty window (which started before I even purchased the device apparently).

    Honestly I was skeptical at how this would work as initially I purchased for my bedroom as I had no good room for a Television however it is now what i use in my room and in the other rooms of the home i just simply project wherever I can see best. The smart functions were a pleasant surprise the UI is easy to navigate and overall a pleasant experince. 4k would be nice but with everything thats in there I mugnt be asking for too much. However for the price I would like something more than 1080.

    Works great and the quality is alot better than the previous model. Love that the android technology is alot faster and works well with your phone this time around. I jsit wish they offered a variety of carrying cases like they mentioned in the promo of the product.

    I bought this to install in my RV. It works excellently. I do wish it was a little clearer in bright rooms as the RV can get quite bright. The sound is good but hooking it up to Bluetooth speaker improves the sound and is super easy.
