Samsung Projector: Does it Live up to its Price?

When considering purchasing a new projector, it's essential to carefully examine the specifications listed by the manufacturer. However, lumens can be an ambiguous term for projectors, and if the listing doesn't specifically mention ANSI lumens, you should exercise caution.

The Samsung Freestyle's pre-order page claims a brightness of 550 lumens, which sounds impressive. As someone who has tested numerous budget projectors, I can attest that for a mostly dark room, 300 ANSI lumens is a threshold between an acceptable viewing experience and a good one. Unfortunately, my previous assessment of the Samsung Freestyle was based on paid reviews from influencers who didn't provide honest feedback about its limitations.

Many of you agreed with my initial advice to steer clear of the Freestyle due to these concerns. However, some comments pointed out that I shouldn't judge the projector without testing it myself – a sentiment I wholeheartedly agree with, except that it wasn't possible at the time since only paid influencers had access to the device.

Fortunately, I now have the opportunity to conduct an unbiased review and put my earlier advice to the test. For those who are new to projectors, there are several factors that can make or break your experience. In today's article on The Hookup, we'll explore these crucial considerations and assess whether the Samsung Freestyle lives up to its price.
