Samsung wants to make it easier to turn any room or space into a place where you can watch your favourite content. The company introduced a new ultraportable smart TV projector called the Freestyle. It weighs less than 2 pounds, has a 180-degree stand, and allows you to project screen sizes ranging from 30 to 100 inches.

The Freestyle has a 1080p resolution and auto-focus and auto-levelling capabilities, aligning the image to the surface you're projecting on. It can also play music with the help of its 360-degree sound. This projector is powered by Samsung's smart TV platform, allowing you to access your favourite streaming apps.

TCL revamps its NXTWear TV glasses to look more fashionable

Whether it would make sense for you to wear glasses indoors or not, TCL redesigns its TV glasses to look more like a pair you'll want to wear. The NXTWear Air aren't augmented reality glasses (but TCL also has that). These glasses are more of an accessory you can plug into any device and work as an external monitor of sorts close to your eyes. You can enjoy your content or do some work while lounging around.

Functionally, they aren't as different as the original NXTWear, but now they look more like RayBan Wayfarers than the IMAX 3D glasses look of the past. It has a black plastic frame with magnetic front plates and tinted lenses you can swap out for different styles. That black USB-C cable on the right side will give it away as a tech device, though.

Samsung has a new iteration of its solar-charging remote, adding a new way to stay charged. The Samsung 2022 Eco Remote now converts routers' radio waves into energy to charge it. As Engadget pointed out, it's a smart move, given that these radio wave energies go untapped. 

The Eco Remote has a solar panel on the back, and it's made with recycled materials. It does what any other Samsung remote does. It also has quick access to streaming apps like Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video. It is also now available in black and white to make it easier to match with Samsung's existing lifestyle TVs.
