Samsung LSP3BL 100" The Freestyle Smart Projector

Took forever to set up EVERYTIME we try to use it. Last two times we couldn't adjust the size. Making it worthless. Then it shuts off and won't turn on. We used it 20 times at the most!

I recommend to everyone I know. This is hands down the best projector I have ever owned. Self adjusting size, self focus and a fantastic picture. We use it for movie nights on the back patio. Even has great sound quality from thd samd unit. We use it on wifi for all of our streaming channels. I hope to get thd back up battery next so that we can watch movies anywhere. If you try 1 product this year, make it thd freestyle!!!

Functional but not well tested or set up. It gets the job done but is clunky and I am still debating whether or not to return it.

Pros: the screen set up is pretty easy as long as you have a plug and a place to project it. You can stream Netflix and Amazon etc like a smart tv but you have to do it from the device (not your computer). I have a Mac and the only way to play things is AirPlay (which Netflix / hbo etc don't allow). So I can do presentations from my laptop but aside from that it is more or less a stand alone tv, in a projector body.

Cons: the software is like a beta version of Apple TV and is just not good. To adjust sound or picture you have to navigate all the way back to the main menu and go through a bunch of clicks to get to it. A better set up is to have it as an option on the remote or directly accessible while watching whatever. Also, the power button doesn't work unless I unplug and reply the device in. Overall it's clunky and frustrating to use for a Samsung product. I like it's portability and the image so far has been decent.

Purchased about three weeks ago. The size of the projector is really nice, however, it is definitely lacking in features compared to other ones at the same price point would like to see a brighter green so it can be used in rooms with light, otherwise you have to be in almost total darkness. It was also nice to be able to have actual regular size HDMI connections. Also, a built-in battery would make this perfect otherwise, lower the price and it’s a good enough projector.

I purchased it when it's on sale for $399. With this price, I did not expect too much. However, it really surprise me. It has very high quality pictures and I can use remote control to watch youtube and prime video easily. I can also control it using my phone. I can project my photos as well as my video in my phone to the projector easily. I am using iphone, so I did not expect it is as easy as apple tv. However, somehow, it works great.

Gave this projector to my husband for Christmas 2022. He was admitted into the hospital on Dec 2022. I set this up to play on his room’s ceiling and it is unbelievably clear, large screened, and so easy to connect.
I would recommend this projector to anyone. You don not have to be tech savvy to use this projector.

You don’t have to be very tech savvy to use this projector. I just typed in my streaming services log ins and we were good to go.
I would highly recommend this projector.

Bad:
The picture quality, need to constant adjustment each time you move it, low luminance that require complete dark to see any text size without blur make it hard to use and recommend. Annoying inability to stop Samsung TV+ to always pop up every time when nothing is running, unless completely disable this feature, which define the purpose of this app.
Good:
Really like Compact Design. Good sound for the size. OKAY Colors (in full dark). Got it under $400 which makes good value if above bad issues are solved.
Bottom line:
Unless you using it in total dark and not plan to move it, its good gadget, where you have no option to use regular panel TV.

Dark Room Use Only

Pros; Easily setup, viewing options (Samsung TV, subscriptions like Netflix and Prime), portable, good local sound, pretty good (but not great) picture quality, pretty good sound (can add bluetooth speaker), connected Samsung account.

Cons; No controls on projector so if remote breaks..., HORRIBLE picture (nearly can't see anything at all) with just a little light coming through the window or trying to use on partially covered patio.

Just received for Christmas and is amazing Color sound image.

Headline speaks for itself. This thing is fantastic. Idk how they packed so much power into such a small unit but wow. When i powered it up i was truly impressed. I will certainly be getting the battery attachment so i can host movie nights in the park this summer.

I've had this for a couple of months now and so far, overall, I am pleased with it. I have it setting on my dresser, projecting onto a wall about 7-8 feet away resulting in a 75" screen. It is angled upwards and to the side but the keystone correction has worked flawlessly for me.

After using this for about a month, I wanted to get one of the cheaper projectors on Amazon to try out and compare to. I spent about $200 so I didn't expect it to necessarily be a fair comparison but the Freestyle was so much better than the cheaper one in every way imaginable. I didn't realize exactly how much I appreciate the keystone correction on the Freestyle until I didn't have it. I mean, the one from Amazon *did* have horizontal keystone correction but not vertical. If I had kept it set up in my bedroom, the projector would have to have been left at the foot of the bed, taking up floor space. Additionally, there were several areas of the screen that got blurry and not nearly as clear as the Freestyle. Unlike the Freestyle which feels very well built, the other unit felt like a kids toy, very cheaply made. After about 10 minutes, I ended up putting the other projector back in the box and returned it.

I mainly use the Freestyle to watch YouTube and Vudu and for that, it's worked pretty flawlessly. My primary complaint, like most people, is that it just isn't as bright as I'd like it to be. With the lights dimmed, it's still acceptable, it just makes darker content hard to see at times. The audio is surprisingly loud and clear but I did opt to set it up with a bluetooth sound bar that makes it just a bit better and allows for more bass. I also have this set up with some off-brand bluetooth headphones and it's paired to my Buds 2 Pro but the Buds seem to have a connection issue that causes the audio to cut out a lot. The off-brand headphones don't have that issue. Having said that, the device does pretty well with automatically prompting to connect to whatever bluetooth device I have powered on, only rarely needing to go into the settings to force the connection.

One thing that I've struggled with is getting the device to just load to the main screen or the last app I used. It's a crapshoot whether it's going to load to the last app or if I'll be watching some cartoon network episode when it powers on. It's set to go to the last app but that doesn't always happen. It's quite annoying but not a deal breaker.

Also, the UI is (like other people stated) slow. Sometimes it seems more responsive than others but usually, there's a significant delay between pressing a button on the remote and something actually happening on the device. Having said that, I'm not using this to go channel surfing so it's a minor annoyance that I've learned to deal with.

Like I said, overall, I'm pretty happy with this but I'm still undecided if I'm going to keep it. I can spend a little more money and get a 75" TV that would be much brighter AND have a 4K picture. The only downside is that I would lose the option of portability. I can take this with me on vacation and have a big screen anywhere I go so long as it's in a darker environment.

For the original asking price, I'm thinking this deserves about 3.5 stars due to the sluggish UI and dark picture but the form factor, fantastic experience I've had with the auto keystone correction, the sound... basically the overall versatility, I'll push that to 4 stars. Also, while the picture is darker than I'd like, it is a very consistently nice picture with no noticeable distortion.

I bought this at launch abd while it is a good idea, the execution is so bad that I cant believe this is a tested product brought to retail. It works maybe 70% of the time, the UI is a steaming pile of garbage, the keystone and focus are a joke. Samsung got us on this

It's simple and powerful at the same time I highly recommend it

I purchased this product over Black Friday and my family loves movie nights

This item looks cool but will not work. Too many bugs to handle. Smarthub will not work after some time and have issues to simply turn the projector on.
Not just for me but for all of my friends who purchased this device at the same time.

the size, set-up, and mobility of this projector is awesome. the built in stereo is pretty decent and the picture quality is acceptable as long as the screen is kept less than 100 inches. i also love the slick universal remote that it comes with. i bought it on sale do the price is much better than its original retail price which was probably too high to begin. with. finally i was very disappointed in the shipping of this product as it was sent without being package. the device's box was used as tge shipping box which is unacceptable. the box arrived soiled and dirty. i mean what if this was going to be given as a gift not to mention the potential of damage to the device itself. i would expect a little more professionalism from samsung.

I use this in my gym and bedroom. It’s great quality and beautiful. Worth every penny. Not sure why overall reviews aren’t 4.5 and 5!

Overall, I liked the design. It is a very nice projector. I really like that it has Apple AirPlay and all the smart apps! The only thing I did not like was the software. It is very laggy and sometimes glitches. I own a Samsung Smart TV and the software does not compare. If the software were not laggy, I would like the product. Maybe in the future.

I needed a new TV for my bedroom. I have a 45 degree angled wall that I wanted to project onto. This Samsung Freestyle was the perfect solution. It's very easy to set up and understand the instructions. I can control it by the included rechargeable remote control or by my Samsung tablet.

I have used this about two months now. This works in dark room, but the projected screen is bright enough if the curtain is closed in daytime. I like the auto adjustment feature to reshape the screen depending on angle, but do not shoot it high degree -- you will sacrifice the screen size. I place it about 8 feet / 20 degree from the wall without a screen, it makes about 90 in" screen. The screen is great with lights off. It connects to my Synology server without any issue. It connects my PC or Macbook Air with or without cable.

Purchased this item a few months ago. When it works as designed it is a delight. The screen is crisp, resolution is great, sounds is ok. It has some of the most frequently used apps available. I use an Iphone and screen mirroring works great. It is definitely portable, even though you have to connect it to power. If your going camping or things of that nature, one always has an extra power source so its no big deal. It stands and points pretty simply as well. (Samsung Battery Pack sold separately) Connect a Bluetooth speaker for best experience. There are glitches that happen when using the product that I have experienced. For example, i am displaying the screen with all of the features on auto. The screen will play great but then out of nowhere the screen will auto adjust to a different aspect ratio or direction. No way to change it back but going into the settings (which takes sometime to load) then manually adjusting the screen again. The auto features work great when they want to but sometimes they act up, id say an 80/20 percent of the time. I have also experienced a glitch in which my Samsung automatically resets itself to factory default. Having to reinstall everything and connecting to Wi-Fi again out of nowhere. Seems odd but again 8/10 times it will work great, its just those rare times are a real inconvenience. Overall im glad with the purchase.

exceeds expectations. has features that are not available on other projectors.

i decided to buy the freestyle on a whim and thought i would regret it but once i got to playing around with it i was convinced it was no mistake! the picture quality was terrific although i do not recommend projecting on a heavily texured wall. i love how the picture adjusts and it is so user friendly. the size is perfect for me as i do plan on using it anywhere i possibly can and it would make it so much easier to move my living room furniture around with out having to lift a heavy and large television. this purchase will make my life easier to say the least! samsung has not let me down throughout all these years of purchasing cell phones, tv's and home appliances! love all my samsung products!

Bought it on 15 October 2022 when it's on sale. The package came with a damage. The remote control has a sticker that looks like a refurbished product (photos attached). The project functionality is very poor: only can use at night or really dark room, the keystone not working as my expectation (video attached). I will return this.

Easy to set up and use. My family and I are glad we made this purchase. We can't stop using it! Inside or outside this is always primo quality picture.

This is one of the worst product I have ever purchased from Samsung. It worked just one day.
It had powering issues and the customer care people helped to send it to service center, after the product is returned it was turning on but nothing works in it.
I have wasted my money and time.
My friends purchased the same device along with me, they have the similar experience.
They should discontinue this product.

A lot if things need to be fixed, inuding charging and over-heating, together with couple of user interface adjustments

I purchased this item and 3 days after the price was reduced by $400! I reached out to customer service with no prevail. Even without that issue, this projector is not worth the price. It is difficult to connect devices, it does not adjust properly to screen and the volume is very muffled. I was extremely excited for this device and was let down big time. Do not recommend! I love Samsung devices but this failed me.

The picture quality is pretty great for its size and price. The internal fan is fairly quiet as well. Overall it's a great projector with almost all the features of a samsung smart tv. However you can't set up Google assistant as your voice assistant on the Freestyle. Other than that, I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking to get an affordable smart tv

Broke after 1 week. Slow UI, dim 550 lumens. Not worth 900. Next generation hopefully it will actually work. This product as sold seems like a test version.

Do not buy this product unless it is under $200. it is slow, does not work properly and breaks down easily. brightness level is terrible. will only be effective in a very dark room.

Wasn't expecting much but pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to setup and how good the auto keystone is.

It's handy to take just about anywhere. Comes in handy when. We have visitors or just want to have a movie night outback.

I picked up the Freestyle to finish up the movie room remodel. The convenience of having everything built into the device and it's size makes it easy to mount and keeps it from being intrusive.

The picture looks great! Bright, clear and smooth. I forgot how digital screens affect fps versus a projected image.

I easily paired it to a speaker bar and within 20 minutes of signing into all my favorite Smart features, I was enjoying the Freestyle.

Product is actually pretty great but, the customer service and technical support is awful. Received a brand new Freestyle and setup was very easy, picture quality very good in the dark. I had to angle the projector at a 15-20 degree angle to get the picture to focus, not a big deal but the background light was askew and gave it a strange look. Called Samsung and rather than send me a replacement told me I had to send it to a repair center with no timeline for it to be fixed. I called the repair center and nobody ever answers or returns phone calls.

Got The Freestyle about a month ago. Has worked great from day 1. Super impressed with how easy it is to use. Not the brightest picture but I use in my basement with low lighting which works out. Set up is easy and can put away easily when I’m not using it. The built in smart features work decently but I decided to go ahead and plug in my fire stick via the micro hdmi on the side to navigate my apps easier. I usually Max out the size of the screen on the wall I use so probably a little bigger than the 100 inches mentioned in the description. Also got a Samsung Soundbar around the same time. I can toggle the sound between my TV and the projector easily via the Smart Things app on my phone. The sound bar connects via Wi-Fi to the projector and the sound matches up perfectly with the picture!

Brilliant device. Freestyle is so easy to use. It's a wifi smart TV with flexibility and no cords. The picture quality is incredible, it's like being in the theater.

My family really enjoys The Freestyle projector. We use it for many different things such as community outdoor movie nights at one of public parks, watching our local college football team play, playing video games for game night The Freetstyle has great quality and great features. Features such as being portable no outlet needed so you can enjoy anywhere, 360 sound so you get the best sound in all directions , 180 degree design which allows you to use as big of space you want, access to your streaming apps and music apps so you can watch or listen to your favorites anywhere. My family highly recommends this projector and will use it for life!

Absolutely love this freaking thing! It is seriously amazing! Only wish it came with the battery pack. I mean for the price, and for advertising that it's "portable," the battery should be included. Other than that, this thing is everything it's supposed to! Slam dunk Samsung <3

the operating system is horrible and is very slow
I bought it 3 months ago for my daughter's birthday and I haven't been able to use it because it always has a problem
now the last thing is that all the apps were uninstalled and I can't install them again

i was wanted to buy this projector for a long time, i got a nice pronotion on samsung, but agter watching 2 movies the projector got warm and didn’t start on! i talked with 3 agents for a replacement (i was jn return period, 10day with the projector) but they send me a uos prepay tonsend it back to check. very disapoonted with the agent srmervices, i do not recomand! find a better i

I got this September 25th and it no longer turns on! When it did work, it would reset all the time and it was annoying having to re-sign in to everything and ja wing to adjust all the settings.

I want to like it and I am big Samsung fan, however, it is not bright enough for a mildly lit room, dark scenes are almost unrecognizable, auto focus is also out of whack and i have to do the last adjustment manually. It is good for full darkness, picture quality is alright but adding the battery pack makes it really expensive. Not sure if I will keep it or return it. Similar price projectors have better specs, at this point is just love for the brand

We got this a few days ago and now it won’t turn on. I loved the design but now not so much

its clunky, i can only see the projection well after the sun goes down, it turns on randomly in the middle of the night, i cant easily mirtor my phone, and its not all its claimed to be. i finally decided to return it.

Doesn't turn on after a few uses. Nothing same issue others are talking about, white light indicating it is on, but no projection. Still need to give me my money back

i use my tv, to stream netflix, discovery plus and i search the internet also. I don’t even need cable because of the features of the tv

My home is cover with 2)75" 2)65" 1)50" 1)82" 1)Freestyle 1)s8 Ultra 1)zfold4 and my wish list includes 8k TVs and other projector TV. Samsung is the best product out in the market ever, you can't go wrong! With a Samsung at home!!

I love using my projector. The sound quality is wonderful and the fact that it can link to my Samsung phone is great. It has lots of different apps installed and the the ability to hook up to many devices. I did not give it 5 stars because the main app that controls the system runs slow. As a first generation projector it meet my expectations. What I am hoping for is an update for the software to make it smoother and quicker.
