The Freestyle Projector
A versatile portable projector

Although I already have a small portable1080P projector, when I saw the Freestyle from Samsung, there was something about the design that really intrigued me. I was quite happy to get my hands on it, and put it to the test.
Opening the box, there were only a few items in it. The projector which is attached to it's own tabletop stand, a remote, USB/AC adapter, and a cover for the lens. As with many new TV's Blu-ray/DVD players, and other projectors, there are plenty of apps built in similar to a Samsung smart TV. The remote has buttons for Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and Samsung TV Plus. I have subscriptions to the first three so that's a plus. There is an optional carry case for the projector, but oddly nowhere to carry the adapter or remote in it. In order to be truly portable and not tied to AC power, you might want to purchase the battery base meant for this projector if you want a fluid look instead of another battery pack sitting on the side. There is also a soon to come socket adapter where you can screw the projector into a light socket for down firing purposes. I never use projector or TV speakers, but in a pinch this projector delivers decent sound. At 550 advertised lumens, depending on your use it may be underpowered.
This projector is a perfect design for what I was looking for. Many times a week, when I go to bed I will put on some headphones and watch some YouTube videos, mostly music related. It get tiring holding up the phone lying on your back. Well, as I envisioned, I put the Freestyle on the shelf on the headboard behind me, and angle it up to the ceiling. Even though the projector is angled around 30%, the automatic keystone adjustment corrects the picture perfectly on the ceiling. Now I can put on the headphones, start a video on the phone, and then put it down and comfortably watch on the ceiling while lying down.
I would recommend this projector for anyone looking for a versatile portable projector.
