Samsung Electronics Kenya has announced it will launch The Freestyle – a one-of-a-kind small and compact projector that’s powerfully packed and cleverly designed to improvise a screen – this April.
The Freestyle is a lightweight (weighing only 830 grams) and portable projector, smart speaker, and ambient lighting gadget that allows you to enjoy big screen moments on the go. Its flexible platform allows you to modify the angle by up to 180 degrees in a few simple clicks, from wall to ceiling – simply locate the ideal viewing angle, point, and play. And you’ll never have to make a sacrifice because The Freestyle can project from 17″ to 100″, providing a genuinely adaptable entertainment experience.
According to Samsung, when not being used as a projector to display material, The Freestyle allows you to turn any space into whatever you choose. Simply select from over 20 different backdrops – or get creative and project your own art or images – to create a wonderful mood in your house. It also functions as a smart speaker, with rich 360-degree sound and a 5-watt woofer, allowing you to throw a party wherever you go by combining lights and music. The Freestyle is the industry’s first portable projector that has been certified by global key OTT partners, ensuring that clients have the finest video watching experience possible. It is also the first projector to integrate far-field voice control, allowing users to utilize the gadget with their preferred voice assistants upto 13 ft away.
Despite being priced at $899 on the Samsung US Store, Samsung Kenya says it will be available locally for an estimated KES 150,000 in select Samsung retailers across the nation beginning in April.
