- The Samsung Freestyle projector projects an image up to 100 inches in size at a distance of 2.7 meters from the wall.
- The brightness is 550 lumens.
- With a weight of 830 grams, the device is portable.
The CES in Las Vegas is running. Companies such as Acer or Lenovo showed innovations in advance and Samsung also showed a first highlight with the Galaxy S21 FE. With the portable “Freestyle” projector, there is another one.
The device in the look of a stage spot provides an image with a maximum diagonal of 100 inches (2.54 meters) and is compatible with E26 lamp sockets. It is therefore conceivable that you hang the freestyle on your ceiling.
The resolution is 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. LED is used as the projection technology. The maximum brightness of 550 lumens, however, requires a darkened room or the evening hours for an evening at the cinema.
The 17.2 x 10.1 x 9.4 cm projector has an integrated rotating base and a loudspeaker. If you are not currently watching a film, you can play a light show synchronized to the music on the projector. The connection to the iPhone or Android smartphone is wireless. There is also an HDMI input.
Although the projector is portable, Samsung has not given it a battery. Power is supplied via USB-C. The focus and the keystone correction are carried out automatically. Users can therefore also throw pictures on the wall or canvas from an oblique angle.
Price and availability
The Samsung projector will initially be sold in the USA. He’ll probably come to Germany too. Prices in euros have not yet been determined. In the US, the projector costs $ 900 for pre-order. You can find more news from CES on Netzwelt.
