nice clear review. suggest you to add rival product, or other product option if user can buy. as now, may i know which this freestyle compare with in market?
Where to start? Takes at least 60 seconds, usually longer, to switch on. Autofocus does not work, hence, often times, I switch the device on, I the have to do a manual focus. Try figuring out how to get to the focus setting under settings menu with a terribly out of focus view to get this right. Then on to the keystone which should straighten the picture under the Auto Setting, no can do, I need to then manually do this too. And to be clear, the picture is so lop sided, that you would have to tilt your head about 60 degrees to see what is going on. If the device has been powered off for longer than a few hours, a screen size adjustment needs to be done, manually again. Thought this thing could project a good picture in the day, absolutely not. Battery barely lasts, even if fully charged. Even if the battery is fully charged, we then watch the projector (unplugged from mains) for 60 minutes before bed time, switch it off, and guess what, the very next morning, battery is entirely drained, although it has barely been used. Highly frustrating. Some of our laptops do not connect via the air to the device, hence we have had to get a mini HDMI (extra cost, for goodness sake, could this not be provided with the extra expensive device ?). Now, with the mini HDMI, we have to use the long cable instead of the shorter one, to connect the device to the battery due to SAMSUNG, FOR SOME REASON only providing 90 degree C type plugs on 3 of the 4 available plugs (2 cables, 1 long, 1 very very short). For the above reason, we now have to use the extra short cable to plug the battery into the mains to charge, seriously, SAMSUNG, are you that cheap ? Also, Surely, as the battery is sold separately, it would come with its own charger and cables ? NOOOOOO SAMSUNG is too CHEAP for this, battery has to be used with the charger that was supplied with the device. Hence, we cannot charge the battery full while watching the projector. HOENESTLY THE STUPIDIST THING I HAVE COME ACROSS! Overall, a terrible terrible purchase. WATSE OF MONEY.
my aaxa p7 from 3 years ago costs less than half the price of the samsung projector, and yet the image is a lot sharper and brighter. the samsung may looks nicer and more
@@NasiLemakTech I'm not sure we understood each other. I meant image transmission: it must be done via HDMI and there's no wireless way to do it, right?
@@NasiLemakTech Someone at my office wants to use this device as a professional projector for video calls. According to you, the delay caused by the wireless connection will make it terrible, right? Also, since many different people use it, it should be something like "plug and play", and it seems it is not that easy to make that connection.
Nice video but please the music in the background is really annoying
You did a good job reviewing, HOWEVER, thank you
weird background music 😂

Good suggestion. You can get the BenQ GV30. You can also get the Epson EF-12 but it doesn't have Netflix.

Very helpful,thx

OooK.. for carrying out this you go buy a Bottle carry bag and i promise it will fit all the accessories and the remote two.
is that STAND strong enough???
Yep. You can screw it tighter to make it stronger too.
@@NasiLemakTech made of Plastic ? Or something else
I already returned two, one only work for 3 weeks, I got a replacement and the replacement work for 1 day!! 1 day!!! I returned it for a full refund
Wait!!! I CANNOT connect a laptop without cables?
Can't. You need a power brick to power it up.
@@NasiLemakTech I'm not sure we understood each other. I meant image transmission: it must be done via HDMI and there's no wireless way to do it, right?
Oh you mean that - you can. There is a wireless display connectivity mode but you'll have a lot of delay.

So at the end of the day, is it sponsored? 😄
If it is, I'm going to have a hard time justifying the capabilities of this projector
Freestyle is nice, but I feel MoGo pro+ is better value for your money.
Samsung Freestyle's 0.23'' DMD chip compromises its image quality and brightness. I love its design but I decided to buy Halo+.
