The Freestyle marks [Samsung's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freestyle-projector) first step into [smart home projectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-tvpowered-projector). Many consumers are leaving behind bulky television sets and opting for [sleek and convenient](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinebeam-q) tv and moving-watching options, like the projector. Samsung aims to facilitate this transition by offering The Freestyle in a variety of sizes and designs.

Samsung's home projector is cylindrically shaped, unlike the traditional box-shaped projectors, to further defy the conventional. The sleek design mimics the appearance of a spotlight and a smart speaker, boasting an LED projector. In addition, the Freestyle's body can swing 180 degrees to project onto tricky and otherwise unreachable places. Viewers can modify the image from 30 to up to 100 inches in width with a full HD resolution.
