Overheated and too basic
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Left plugged in overnight, next day went to use it and the body was hot. Not warm, hot! Like scary hot, returned right away and never have seen this with a projector before. The imahe quality suffers from rainbow effect, noticed this watching hockey. Pain trying to mount this, had to make modify mount! No usb! Fan noise is wat too loud for a small form factor. The corner adjustment is subpar, auto keystone was about 80% effective. This is not worth more than 100$. Consider it a toy.

Nice new Gen Technology but not for everyone's use
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of all idea is a big success. Perfect for a stand alone use(with no bluetooth speaker connection) with low quality video/audio. Portability and model design were good features. It is a miserable experience with Integrations like Digital assistant, bluetooth speaker etc. The components used inside are mediocre. Auto focus is not quick, bluetooth speaker connection with device being on wifi is very bad. Up button on remote was not working after a week. Had to exchange. $350 would be right price otherwise, product has to improve a lot. Overall, pricey for a light used product. Best for portability and low quality videos.

BEST BUY!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best purchase I have ever made. Hands down! It makes an average movie night with the kids a fun event! The only downfall is the remote. The remote connectivity and functionality is horrible. So to combat this issue, I use my phone as a smart thing device and utilize the remote feature.

Very portable but no support
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Samsung let me down with this one. First time so i wont boycott the brand but... no more projectors from samsung. It is super light and portable. Its so small that it could fit in my looseleaf tea container. But... when it goes bad, you wont get help or support. I tried 3 solid times to just find a place to look at the projector and samsung did its best to make my requests a calculus problem. Each time, after 45min of the runaround via chat / phone, i realized support wouldnt happen. I honestly think the bulb went bad and i couldnt find anyone to look at it??? I live in Atlanta, not Pecos Texas. I almost pursued the 2nd gen freestyle but chose not to because i cant trust samsung to support projectors.

Great but good be priced better
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice little projector with a pretty good imagine even in a room with small amounts of lights. It really needs a pitch black room to fully enjoy it but a little light wont make it unusable however what is unuseable is the samsunf its fod awful it’s incrediblely slow, buggy and alot of the time just freezes and refuses to work its by far the worst thing aboht this projector just like there tvs it needs to be fixed asap and by fixed i mean just replace it with google tv. Lack of a built in battery sucks and means youll need to buy a portable charger to fully enjoy it if your away from power. For the orice you can do better at 400-500 its worth it for 600-900 dont bother

It’s ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slightly usable in a bright room but it shines in the darkness. The absolutely “x-factor” of this unit it the auo leveling and keystone. Works like a charm. Operating system is slightly buggy and slow but whats a couple seconds.

Pricey wisey projector
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Alright people where do I begin??? How about I just dive right into the deep end of the pool. This projector is a must have if you are looking for quality AND fair price. Very rarely do you find good quality bottled up into a good reasonable price as well, but here you have found it with this product. If you are wanting an easy setup that can be done in your loafers and pajamas then get on up and get this projector!

Best portable projector for price
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was in the market for a portable projector, didn’t want too cheap of quality but wanted something with a bang for my buck. I’ve had this since October and absolutely love it. I take it to hotels when I’m on work travel and use it almost everyday while I’m home. Screen mirror works great and comes with Samsung TV channels. Quality is great and stock speakers are loud and clear. Picture quality isn’t bad at all, I have textured beige walls and color is still great. Recommend 100%

Samsung fan girl disappointment
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not great. Looks cute but the brightness is disappointing for the price. Epson EpiquVision is a better value. Just not as sleek. It does list the specs, I guess I just expected better.

Do not buy this. Wait for the next version.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was amazing for a week. Since this is Samsungs first version of this product, I should have expected issues. - The projector turns itself on randomly while I am away - After a week of use, it now will no longer power on. The RF light will respond to clicks on the remote, but that is all. - The I/O on this device is poor. I work for GeekSquad and even I do not have a mini HDMI cable laying around, yet. I believe a device like this should have two USB type-c ports, ethernet, standard HDMI 2.1, and aux port or optical out for external audio. - The speaker is alright, but I strongly recommend external ones(Must be Bluetooth capable, since there are no ports for audio) Hopefully, they release a new version in the future that is more affordable with at least the added features I stated above, and actually does not break after a week.
