Save $200 on Samsung’s Freestyle Projector With This Limited Labor Day Deal [CNET]

Get a 100-inch screen in your living room with the second-generation Samsung Freestyle Projector and make those movie nights a whole lot better.

The world of home projectors is an expensive path to go down. More often than not, you either need to pony up a huge chunk of cash and get a top-of-the-line model, or you choose the cheaper route that doesn’t always deliver a great experience. However, with this deal during the 2024 Labor Day sales, the second-generation Samsung Freestyle projector is available for just $598 at Amazon. With this price cut, you’re saving $200 on this projector’s usual list price, and this is a match for the lowest we’ve seen this projector go — equalling its Black Friday price from late last year.

This projector is tiny, not far off being the size of a soda can, and its design makes it easy to swivel and readjust. It’s capable of creating a screen up to 100 inches in size and can be used to stream shows, watch films and even play video games with a high degree of accuracy, which isn’t something every projector can manage.

In our review of the original model, CNET contributor Geoffrey Morrison loved its design, colors and streaming capabilities but also said that the lack of a built-in battery and its dimness were drawbacks for the price. Those areas haven’t been significantly addressed in the second-gen model, but with 25% off you can certainly focus more on the pros than the cons, and even have budget for a decent USB-C battery pack or portable power station if you want to make it more portable. 

It’s also worth noting out that the Freestyle can stream games directly from cloud gaming services like Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. That is a new feature in this latest model and means you can easily play PC or console-quality games on a huge screen without having to futz around connecting your console — or without owning one at all. All you need is a compatible controller, such as the PDP Replay which was designed with the Freestyle in mind and can be bundled in for $50. Or if you have an Xbox or PlayStation controller at home already, you’re good to go.

This Labor Day, Samsung has many other products on sales, if you’ve been looking for a new TV or appliances don’t miss out because the best deals don’t last for long.
