Samsung The Freestyle Smart Portable Projector (Open Box)

I was very excited to get a portable projector with a tilt and flip function so I can watch shows and movies anywhere without the strain of a TV screen on my eyes. The excitement was short-lived, however, as I quickly realized that the projector's highest brightness setting is not bright enough to watch anything in the daytime or even in the evening when the overhead lights are on. Even so, I figured its portability and versatility make it worth keeping, especially since I don't usually watch anything in the daytime. Less that a year later, the projector has the following issues: -Slow to start -Lag when using the remote -Decreased brightness -Decreased sound (I used to watch with volume on 40, but now I have to go to 70 to get the same effect) -Sometimes the projector starts up and does not auto-focus, so I have to navigate the blurry screen by memory to the manual focus setting and press left or right on my remote until the device regains focus. -The Auto Keystone feature stopped working. This means that the screen does not auto-adjust to the correct orientation when projected from a different angle. It used to do this quickly and easily, but not anymore. As an example, every time I start the projector, the screen appears huge and skewed, like a rhombus instead of a rectangle. I wish I could still return this product, but Amazon's return window is closed. The projector has a 1-year warranty with Samsung, but they just told me to factory reset the device (which is annoying, because I have to set it up all over again, including all the logins and app downloads). The factory reset increased brightness by a bit and seems to have solved the focus issue, but the other issues still persist. I'm very disappointed with this product - from the very limited brightness which does not allow me to watch in the daytime to the sluggish and bloated OS, which is now having keystone and focus issues less than a year after purchase. I should not have to spend so much time troubleshooting a device that is less than a year old and cost over $500. In addition, the keystone and focus issues prevent me from enjoying my viewing experience because I'm forced to watch movies on a diagonally-oriented screen.
