    Projector works great. Not sure why others are having issues with the device overheating all of the time. The sale price of $599.99 should be the price always. My only complaint is I wish it was a bit brighter.

    I love it!!! It looks great. I can mirror my phone with AirPlay, has apps included to watch YouTube, Netflix, HBO, etc etc + you can download more. It’s so small and can be aimed to the ceiling or the wall. Speaker and image clarity are amazing. I was expecting it to be bad because of the bad reviews but it’s totally worth it. I do wish it was less expensive but still will keep it.

    This projector gets some bad reviews but because of the price not the quality. I purchased this projector open box, but excellent condition. I also purchased a two year warranty. The projector looks brand new. It was probably opened but never used. It is easy to set up right out the box and use the tilting stand. Makes it easy to set up the projector exactly where you want it and also in different ways to set it up I’ve even used it pointing at the ceiling while laying down in bed. The control works great auto focus feature and auto keystone feature. Make it really easy to set up 1080 P is this perfect for anyone nice clean picture and good sound from the projector. I would recommend the projector brand you or if you can find a good deal on the open box just get the warranty and you’ll be fine.

      pablohector,

      I’m sorry to hear you’re not fully satisfied with The Freestyle's brightness. If the image is too dim, try adjusting Picture Mode or Expert Picture Settings.
      Go to Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > Picture > Picture Mode
      ...and select the mode that best fits your usage:
      1) Standard: Is the default mode suitable for general viewing environments.
      2) Movie: Is suitable for watching TV or movies in a dark room.
      3) Dynamic: Makes the picture brighter and clearer in bright viewing environments.
      4) Filmmaker Mode: You can watch the source content (e.g., movie) as it is. If the image is defined as Filmmaker Mode, it will automatically switch to Filmmaker Mode while watching.

      To manually fine tune your image under Expert Settings, go to: Home > Menu > Settings > All Settings > Picture > Expert Settings

      Please also be sure your firmware is up to date with version 1302.6 which includes various performance and picture quality updates. You can check this by going to: Home > Menu > Settings > Support > Software Update > Update Now

      I hope these tips help. Should you need further assistance, 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.

    This projector is one of the best and smallest ive ever owned. The price point might be a little high for entry level but makes up for it with all the features. Auto adjust, great speaker, and wifi connectivity just to name a few. Only downside is not really apple friendly, great if youre an android user.

    I love this thing! I have purchased 3 other projectors in the last few years trying to find something that could be set up for family movie night or maybe a movie in the backyard. every one of my previous purchases were disappointing. So I purchased this samsung freestyle, not expecting much more than what i had before due to the lower price point on this at best buy. Within minutes of hooking this projector up i realized just how much nicer it was, how easy it set up, just pointed it at the screen and let the auto keystone work its magic. We placed it in the backyard around sunset and the picture still displayed bright and clear on a 90 inch screen, it paired seamlesly with our bluetooth soundsystem and streamed a movie witout any additional equipment. It also works flawlessly with my s22 for casting videos. Hoghley recommend for someone buying their fist projector. Looks great with my PS5 as well!

    I bought this projector as a gift to my girlfriend, after being in the market for one. It was very easy to set up, basically plug and play. We use it more than our television now! The picture and sound do not disappoint and a big plus is you can connect it to bluetooth speakers for better surround sound. Perfect for viewing movies outside too!

    I love this projector best purchase ever super clear great for karaoke family night and gaming I had a family birthday and it was a success the complaints ppl make about the set up is confusing because this projector was super easy to set up especially when following the steps took me less than 15 minutes and the complaints about Samsung Plus loading each time I m unsure but I don't mind it's FREE LIVE TV loading so it's a simple fix just by clicking the home button I also want to make aware there is an opportunity to rerun the items you purchase if it's not what your looking for which was helpful in my purchases I was always hesitant to purchase this because I wasn't sure if I would be able to return if I didn't like it or find it complicated but whew I'm glad I didn't have to return it was more than what I expected and don't regret buying this at all if I had to add the Cons buying this product I would say I only wish it was wireless for outdoor use

    Great picture and great sound quality. Love how it’s wireless/portable and you can move it from room to room if you’d like to. I really like how the microphone tells you how many minutes are left in a show, and other things about what you’re watching. Great purchase!

      hydrazippy,

      It's great to hear The Freestyle is delivering great image quality, and we appreciate your feedback on lag and Auto Focus and Keystone Correction performance. To ensure your unit is fully optimized, we ask that you make sure your unit has the latest firmware version installed. You can check firmware by going to: Home > Menu > Settings > Support > Software Update.

      Please also check the following, which may further improve Auto Focus and Keystone Correction:
      1. Remove the film covering the lens, as this can affect Auto Focus performance.
      2. Position the device with the “Samsung” logo on the bottom of the unit.

      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.

    I received this free with the purchase of an 8K TV. It is very user friendly. Since I have a Samsung phone, I was able to set up everything in less than 10 minutes. The picture quality is awesome even on a textured indoor wall. The built-in speaker has great output. I am very happy with this portable projector.
