Samsungâs Freestyle 2 combines a projector and a gaming hub all-in-one, and the Freestyle 2 builds on its predecessor with greater functionality, a better remote, and some literally game-changing features. In fact, whatâs distinctly unique about the Samsung Freestyle 2 Gaming Hub is that you donât need a physical console to play a game, but just the Freestyle 2, internet access, and game controller.

When ZDNETâs Allison Murray and her husband tested the Freestyle 2 in their home, they were impressed with the portable projectorâs power-packed value, and the ability to play video games from the ceiling â or any room in the house with an open wall.
âMy husband was able to play Rocket League with a free membership to GeForce Now, and other free games like Fortnite were also available. The overall gaming experience will depend on your Wi-Fi connection, but the graphics were crystal clear, and the Freestyle 2 loaded the games fast with virtually no glitches,â Murray said.
And the Freestyle 2âs projecting capabilities werenât lackluster, either.
âThe Samsung Freestyle 2 impressed me with both image quality, the ability to auto-focus â whether it was projecting onto a slanted ceiling or a projector screen â and the overall experience of setup and streaming,â Murray wrote in her review.
