HY300 Projector Specs, Model by Model: 720p, 4K Input, Lumens and Chips

So what is an HY300 Pro 4K projector? It is a 720p projector that accepts 4K. The chip decodes a 3840 × 2160 or 4096 × 2160 file or stream and scales it down to the panel, which is why spec sheets print two resolutions: native, and maximum input.

• Native Resolution: 1280 × 720 is the line that decides sharpness.
• Display Resolution Maximum: 3840 × 2160 or 4096 × 2160 only says what it can read.
• '1080P supported' means 1080p input, also scaled to 720p.

A 4K file still has one advantage: a cleaner source often scales down more gracefully than a heavily compressed stream. For an HDMI source, Magcubic's own advice runs the other way. If a laptop or console sends flicker or sound without picture, set the source to 1280 × 720 at 30 Hz and switch HDR off.

Some spec sheets print 8,000, 12,000 or even 15,000 lumens in the brightness field. Those numbers do not describe the same kind of measurement, and no pocket LED projector reaches them. When a spec sheet shows both, trust the ANSI figure; when it shows only a big plain-lumen number, assume the picture sits in the same 120 to 300 ANSI range as its siblings.

Treat those sizes as a starting point that depends on the wall colour, the screen and how dark the room gets. Makers agree on the setting: Magcubic describes its HY300 range as made for a bedroom with the lights off, a backyard after dark or a living room with the curtains drawn.

Contrast figures of 1,500:1 to 10,000:1 appear too, but they come from different test methods and cannot be compared across brands. Picture tweaks that help a dim image are collected in HY300 brightness settings.

• Magcubic HY300 Ultra: Allwinner H726, Android 14.
• Alwtniet HY300 Pro: Allwinner H726, Android 14.
• Magcubic HY300F football edition: Allwinner H726 quad-core, 1GB of memory, 8GB of storage, Android 14.
• XKTUJW HY300 Pro: a T950S processor with 1GB + 8GB and Android 13.
• Ellohra HY300: Allwinner H713 with a Mali-G31 GPU and Android 11.

Several makers name the Mali-G31 graphics core without naming the processor, and many print only an Android version. That version is the useful clue for an HY300 Android projector: every Android 14 model that names its chip names the H726, and the Android 11 model that names one names the H713.

Memory is printed even less often. Where it appears, it reads 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage, which leaves room for a handful of streaming apps rather than a library of games, so uninstall what you never open.

One quirk surprises owners. On Magcubic's Android 14 system, brightness, contrast and sharpness sliders sit in a menu opened with the remote's MENU key during HDMI or USB playback, not in Android's settings. Firmware matters as well, and updating before first use is what Magcubic asks; the steps are in the HY300 firmware update walkthrough.

• Wi-Fi: dual-band Wi-Fi 6 on most current models; the 2026 Magcubic Pro prints plain Wi-Fi.
• Bluetooth: 5.0 to 5.4, for speakers and headphones going out.
• Speaker: a 5W SoundBase on the Pro+, Ultra and Alwtniet Pro; 3W on the XKTUJW, Amovfilm and WOOPKER units.
• USB: movies from a flash drive, or a mouse when the remote goes missing.

Weight sits under a pound for most. Alwtniet and ClokoWe state 0.77 lb, Magcubic states 0.88 lb for the Pro+, and the round HY300F reaches 550 g. The Magcubic HY300 Pro specs give 350 g for the classic body. ClokoWe's body measures 3.73 × 3.73 × 6.17 inches, about the size of a tall mug.

Throw is short. At a 0.9:1 throw ratio, an 80-inch picture needs about 1.6 metres and a 100-inch picture about 2 metres. Magcubic puts the 2026 Pro's working range at 0.5 to 3 metres for 40 to 130 inches; every distance is charted in HY300 screen size and wall distance.

Read HY300 Pro projector specs in this order:

1. Native resolution. Expect 1280 × 720; question anything else.
2. ANSI lumens. 200 is the family norm, 260 the top Magcubic figure; ignore plain lumen counts in the thousands.
3. Focus type. Manual gear, electric from the remote, or auto: this changes a ceiling setup more than any other line.
4. Keystone. Auto vertical is standard; horizontal or four-corner adjustment is a bonus.
5. Android version and chip. Android 14 on the H726 is the current generation.
6. Radios and speaker. Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.x, and 5W if you want to skip an external speaker.

Lines to skip include light-source life of 50,000 hours, which no one will reach in the life of the projector, and contrast ratios that swing from 1,500:1 to 10,000:1 on near-identical hardware. Noise claims vary too: Magcubic states 35 dB at one metre for its range, while several other brands claim under 25 dB.

How the numbers feel on a real wall is covered in the HY300 projector review, and the step up from Pro to Ultra is weighed in HY300 Ultra vs HY300 Pro.
