A regular projector will get mounted in one place in your home and will stay there for its lifetime. This new Samsung projector that was just announced at CES 2022 is a device you’ll move from room to room. You’ll use it inside your home and outside your home. You’ll use it for gaming one day, movies the next—but first it will stream some music while you make the popcorn. Additionally, halfway through the movie you’ll point it at the ceiling so you can lie on your back and continue with the show! Learn more about this projector, then enter for a chance to have this amazing new technology in your home before anyone else in the country.

Why are so many people excited about the Samsung Freestyle projector

It’s safe to say that this Samsung projector is one of the most talked about new technologies coming out of CES 2022. There are many reasons for this excitement. It’s a small device that can be placed almost anywhere to send a brilliant display onto walls or ceilings for instant entertainment. It’s also a self contained entertainment powerhouse with streaming services preinstalled: just turn it on, connect to your Wi-Fi, then play Netflix, Prime, and more without connecting to any external device. That’s amazingly convenient.

This is a projector for everyone. You love tech, it’s for you. You just need something to take the place of a TV so you can put shows on a wall occasionally, it’s for you. You want something to display business presentations or school presentations, it’s for you. So if you are wondering who this technology is for: it’s for you. You could use it as a secondary monitor; as a television, as a movie theatre, as a gaming station … the list goes on and on. Read Andy Baryer’s review of this projector on the blog (here is his video review) to learn more … and to find out why he (and his mother) want to buy this projector.

FAQs about the Samsung Freestyle Projector

Here are some quick answers to some questions that I think will be on many people’s minds:

Is the projector cordless? 
The projector needs to be plugged to an electrical power source: this can be a power outlet, an extension cord (like you might when using it outside), or a power bank (like the many portable and convenient power banks carried at Best Buy). Once you connect to your home Wi-Fi network you do not need to connect it to anything else to watch a ton of content. Built-in applications enable you to connect to movies, TV shows, sports, and more.

How do I connect to Netflix, Prime, or Disney+?
Once the projector is connected to Wi-Fi you can connect to Netflix, Prime and other streaming applications using the built-in apps. Follow the simple on-screen menu to quickly connect and start watching.

Can I connect a computer or game console to this projector?
Yes! Just like any other display screen (TV, monitor, etc) you can plug an HDMI cord from a Blu-ray player, gaming console, laptop etc. into the projector. This projector using a micro-HDMI input so you might need an adaptor or a HDMI to Micro-HDMI cord (available at Best Buy).

How long will it take me to set up this projector when I get it home?
You can set up Samsung’s The Freestyle projector in just a few minutes. Locate where you want to set it up; plug it in; follow the instructions to connect it to your home Wi-Fi; follow the menu to select what you want to watch. Of course, the first time you use each app (Netflix, Disney+, etc) you will need to enter your account login details.

Samsung continues to impress the world with its innovation

Samsung keynote ces 2022Lastly, I wanted to comment on the impressive new tech from Samsung. They continually innovate in many different product categories. A couple years ago I was so impressed with the new Galaxy Note 10 that I switched from an iPhone, though I had never used an Android device before. I have not regretted it at all and still love my Note 10 phone. You’d think with the impressive announcements at CES 2022 for smartphones, televisions, gaming, and appliances, they wouldn’t have time to create a whole new product. However, they did. Reviewer Andy Baryer calls The Freestyle a game changer and I’m sure it will become a mainstay in many homes during 2022. It’s available now to preorder from Best Buy (available on February 11, 2022); but, one lucky Canadian will win the projector that Andy tested and be one of the first in Canada to enjoy this projector in their home.

  1. I will use it to take over the world! Mwahahaha *cough* Uh, excuse me, what I meant to say is that I would use it for family movie nights, either in the house, backyard, or even camping! Then take over the world.

  2. I like the fact it connects to the home wifi and is small and portable. I will most likely use it most outside for movie nights.

  3. This projector would be a great addition to our basement theatre. Our walls are very large and a blank slate.

  4. I love the small size and portability! This projector will be used in my living room, outside in the backyard or maybe I’ll bring it over to use outside at my friend’s hot tub! It

  5. I like the versatility of this machine… to watch streaming service, used as tv, monitor, streaming sound. Most often will be used in the living room

  6. Perfect for thebotyer wall in the living room. Adding size over my 65″ TV. Still connecting to the home theater

  7. This would be great for all around the house! Downstairs upstairs, in bedrooms. Walls, ceilings! It’s endless!

  9. First time I wiil have a projector if I win.I’ll use it in the living room where my family can enjoy it. And maybe on bedroom ceiling since my daughter dream of having to watch while lying on bed.

  10. I have yet to use a projector, so this would be my initial trial. Would love to use for entertainment room!

  11. I think I will be using this all over the place. I like a big picture. A buddy of mine is a “real” film director. We often muse of a portable projector so will definitely be setting up a movie night at his place. Then he can tell all his film pro buddies about it too. What about using it as background images in film or in art installations or a billion other cool ways. As all my gear is Samsung it will get along well and play nice in our house. I bet a 4k is in the pipe too.
    Halo is a likely use…. Did I mention the huge picture ?

  12. The ability to project tothe ceiling means I would finally be able to watch tv flat on my back in bed when I am in lots of pain.

  13. This would be perfect for outdoor movie nights in the summer! And I like the idea of trying it on the ceiling-while laying in bed. Thanks for the entry!

  17. What I love about this projector is that it is easy to set up. This enables you to move it from room to room. I would use this in my Tv room. We have two rooms with TV’s in my home but one room has more seating. The whole family could sit together and watch some fabulous movie on the projector. Thanks for the chance to win this innovative product.

  21. I would love a big screen in my living room ,I only have a small tv . This would make watching movies a whole lot better. Thanks for a chance.

  22. I love that it scans the wall to fit perfectly. Which will be perfect for the wall over my couch in my living room. My living room of small so I can’t buy a tv without fear that it will fall on someone’s head so this projector will be perfect. I will get it.

  23. The portability of this projector and how the quality is more impressive then other portable projectors. The other thing that is super impressive is the intergration of streaming apps and sound, that way the experience stays consistent whether watching outdoors or watching indoors. So excited for this projector!
