Yes, I'd recommend this product.
I've been using it for 3 months, I didn't think it would look so good and HUGE. It has 2 disadvantages: when you turn it on, it's slow to display the menu and it needs darkness to enjoy it. It works great and the best of all is the size, super portable. I never thought I'd watch movies in more than 100" and much less on the ceiling. The sound is quite good, the definition and auto-adjustment to find the best way to project. The Bluetooth community, works with all my audio devices: headphones, speakers, home theater. I'm amazed by its solar remote control, simple and very easy to use.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
I bought this a couple months ago. It’s even better than I anticipated. We haven’t had a nice day for any outside viewing yet but being a smart projector is awesome. It’s set up just like our Samsung TV, so there really wasn’t much of a learning curve. Indoors sound is enough out of the projector. Haven't bluetoothed to an external speaker yet but haven’t had a reason to.

No option to disable Samsung TV Plus

Phil . 29 days ago
The fact that you can't remove or disable Samsung TV Plus on this projector makes it so frustrating to use. Each time you turn the projector on, a TV Channel will start playing, without any option to prevent it. Such a frustrating experience...
Samsung Specialist - 27 days ago
Phil, While your Freestyle 2nd Gen may currently default to Samsung’s TV Plus app, please know you can choose what your Projector does when you turn it on by going to Menu > Settings > All Settings > General & Privacy > Start Screen Option 1) Enabling Start with Smart Hub Home automatically launches Smart Hub when the Projector is turned on. Navigate to this option to enable or disable the feature. 2) If Autorun Last App is set to on, the last used app is automatically run when you turn on the Projector. You can turn this function on or off by pressing the Select button in the current menu. If we can help with anything else, please call us at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. LiveChat with an agent as well as manuals, software, and warranty info can be found at the ‘Support’ link on our Samsung website. ~ Samsung SpecialistSamsung US Originally posted on Samsung US
