Samsung’s The Freestyle 2 is a point-and-shoot projector that’s low on fuss and great for teens. Unfortunately, it is normally $800. However, with this deal you can get it for 25% off, saving you $200 and getting it for just $600. This is probably one of the best projector deals we’ll see before Thanksgiving, at least for this price bracket. And what’s really nice is that you can get the deal at either Samsung’s site directly or from Best Buy. That means if you have some credit with either store, you can finally use it up when you buy this projector. In any event, tap the appropriate button below to see the deal or keep reading to learn more about this gaming projector.

Why you should buy Samsung’s The Freestyle 2

This is a portable projector for gaming that’s essentially a Samsung TV in projector format. Unlike a lot of high end projectors, there isn’t a lot to do when setting up your Freestyle. You just point it and shoot at a wall or ceiling and you’re good to go with a corrected rectangular screen at 1080p. The rear of the Freestyle isn’t merely cooling vents, either, it’s a decent audio speaker that saves extra room. A simple USB-C power cord keeps everything powered and ready, but you can also buy an optional portable battery for remote use.

While you can certainly use the Freestyle 2 as a TV, the most likely use case is for a bunch of teens or college students. And that, in addition to movies, means games. If you pay for Samsung’s Gaming Hub you can play games directly over your projector, with no console hookups required, making this a great console alternative or a great way to game on vacation, your choice. It’s a very Xbox-like experience.

If you’re ready to buy, just tap the appropriate button below to choose your retailer. Should the deal still be going on, you’ll find the projector being sold for $600. That’s $200 down from the usual $800, a savings of 25%. Be sure to check both sites if one doesn’t have the deal anymore, because while we predict the deal will go on for a similar length at both sites, one might update later than the other. Alternatively, if you find that Gaming Hub interesting, go check out our list of the best Samsung TV deals, where you’ll also find the Gaming Hub.

Why you should buy the Bose QuietComfort wireless headphones
Bose pioneered the development of active noise cancellation technology, so it's not a surprise that its current flagship model, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra, sit on top of our roundup of the best noise-canceling headphones. The Bose QuietComfort cut certain features, but if you just want wireless headphones that will reliably block the sounds from your surroundings so you can focus on the streaming shows that you're watching or the playlists that you're listening to, then they're going to be more than enough. They also have an Aware Mode that you can activate if you want to hear what's going on around you without taking them off, such as when you're crossing the street or giving your order at a café.

If you're thinking about getting a projector instead of taking advantage of Cyber Week TV deals, but you don't want to handle a big and bulky device, the good news is that there are portable models like the Xgimi MoGo 2. It's on sale from Amazon with a 25% discount, which brings its price down to a more affordable $300 from its original price of $400. You'll have to act fast if you're interested in this offer though, as there's no telling how much time is remaining before you miss out on the savings of $100.

Why you should buy the Xgimi MoGo 2 portable projector
Xgimi has several entries in our list of the best projectors, including the Xgimi MoGo 2 Pro as the best portable 1080p projector. The Xgimi MoGo 2 is its more affordable version, and while it's not as powerful as the Xgimi MoGo 2 Pro with 1920 x 1080 resolution, it's still a pretty worthwhile purchase, especially with Amazon's discount. The Xgimi MoGo 2 is capable of up to 1280 x 720 resolution, but at the same maximum brightness of 400 ISO Lumens as its cousin, and it also offers Intelligent Screen Alignment and Intelligent Obstacle Avoidance, which makes setting up the projector much easier.
