The Samsung Freestyle 2 builds on its predecessor with greater functionality, a better remote, and some literally game-changing features. Plus, it’s 25% off for Black Friday shopping.
There’s a saying that goes something like, « Don’t fix what isn’t broken. » I firmly believe in that — especially when it comes to tech products and their sometimes-pointless updates.

Review: Samsung The Freestyle: A well-rounded projector, inside and out
But first, what are the changes? There aren’t many significant differences between the original model and the second-generation projector, but here are a few worth noting: Smart Edge Blending that allows you to use two Freestyle projectors to make one massive image with support for widescreen content at an aspect ratio of up to 29.3:9, a solar remote instead of a battery-operated one, increased memory for faster performance, and the most notable difference — the Samsung Gaming Hub.
While I’m no gamer, my husband is a casual one, so I put him to the test to try this feature out. What’s very cool about the Samsung Gaming Hub is you don’t need a physical console to play a game, but just the Freestyle 2, internet access, and game controller.
