Snag a Samsung Projector at Its Lowest Price for Prime Day

If you want to upgrade your home entertainment system, it might be time to make the change to a home projector instead of a TV. And with the October Prime Day deals in full swing right now, upgrading might not cost as much as you think. Currently, Amazon is offering a $200 discount on the second-gen Samsung Freestyle, which drops it back down to the all-time low price of $598. But deals can come and go pretty rapidly during major shopping events, so there's no telling how long this offer will remain available. Get your order in soon if you don't want to miss out on these savings.

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 Samsung Freestyle, 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 may even have the budget leftover 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.

And if you're not quite ready to make the switch to a projector, there are tons of other October Prime Day TV deals that you can shop right now as well.
