According to our projector expert
The Samsung The Freestyle is a multifunctional Full HD projector with a convenient design for on the go. The projector weighs just 1kg, so you can easily take it with you to friends. Don't worry about complex settings, because The Freestyle selects the right settings itself during the automatic setup. You simply place it somewhere, turn it on, and enjoy a Full HD projection on the wall with a size of up to 100 inches in a matter of minutes. Prefer to project on the ceiling? No problem, because you can easily tilt the projector 180 degrees. Choose your favorite content on the Tizen smart platform. Here, you can find apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Videoland. Thanks to the 360-degree speakers in the projector, you can also listen to the sound of a movie without needing external devices. When the movie is finished, you can use The Freestyle as a light or project your own photos in the Ambient Mode. Make sure the room is always completely darkened, because the low light output of 230 lumen makes this projector unsuitable for use in lit rooms.

The Freestyle has a throw ratio of 1.2:1, which means you place the projector at a distance of 1.2m from the screen for a projection that's 1m wide. For a projection that's 2m wide, you double the distance to 2.4m. Consider where you want to place the projector first and make sure you have enough space.

The Samsung The Freestyle is a user-friendly beamer for at home or on the go. If you're looking for a full HD projector that you can place anywhere and that doesn't have complicated settings, then this is a good choice for you. Make sure that the room where you want to use it is completely darkened, because only then will you see bright, colorful images.
Automatic settings I think the automatic set-up is a big plus of this projector. I take it out of the box, plug it in, turn it on and immediately have a straight and sharp image. This automatic keystone and auto-focus is handy, because I don't have to search endlessly for the right settings.
Convenient adjustable design The Freestyle is a light and small projector, so you can easily take it with you everywhere. He actually reminds me the most of a small white spot. The design is tiltable and I can switch between the wall and the ceiling in seconds. After turning the beamer it takes a few seconds for it to focus and then I immediately look further.
Better image in the dark In the dark I see bright colors and sharp details. As soon as I turn on the light or move the curtain aside, the image disappears a bit. This is due to the low light output of 230 ANSI lumens. I do not recommend the beamer if you want to use it for a lit room or a room with a lot of daylight. Then look at a beamer with a higher light output. The beamer is suitable for a dark room, such as a bedroom.
The Tizen smart platform I like that there is an extensive smart platform on the beamer. I see my favorite apps in the menu such as Netflix, Disney+ and YouTube. All I have to do is log in and enjoy my favorite movie right away.
trinkets The Freestyle is a real must-have. The low light output is a minus, but it makes up for it with many nice features. For example, I can already see myself lying in bed with a Netflix movie on the ceiling. I also easily project photos at a party or wedding, because I can easily take the beamer with me.

Positive: A beautiful and sleek design. It is easy to move because of its light weight. Finally, the beamer has smart TV apps.
Downsides: On the other hand, the image quality is very poor due to the low light output. Even in a dark room, the quality is not what you would expect from this price range. Finally, the sound quality is not that strong, this does not make for an ultimate movie night!
