Magcubic HY300 Projector: The Maker's Own HY300, Pro, Pro+ and Ultra

Magcubic sells the HY300 under its own name, from the original through the Pro, Pro+ and Ultra to a football-shaped HY300F, and backs it with a matching tripod, power adapters and regular system updates.

Brought up to date September 2026

Who makes the HY300, and where Magcubic fits

HY300 is a design name more than a brand. Ask for the HY300 projector manufacturer and you get a crowd: Alwtniet, ClokoWe, Thunrlge, Xorytin, SKUOU, ear&ear, Chicdaze, ENUOSUMA, Salange and many others all sell a small swivel-stand projector called HY300, HY300 Pro, Pro+ or Ultra.

Magcubic is the brand most tied to the name. It sells the HY300 under its own badge as a full ladder of models, with matching accessories and update notes, and its HY300 Pro+ is the most bought HY300 of all. Which factory assembles each brand's units is not published, so treat any single maker claim with care.

What the replacement remotes reveal is telling. One infrared remote lists the Magcubic HY300 Pro alongside Xgody, Aubor, HIPPUS, Salange, Chicdaze and Maypug models, which suggests many of these projectors share the same inner design.

  • Shared by most HY300s: a cylinder body on a 180° swivel stand, a native 1280 × 720 LCD panel, built-in apps, manual or motor focus.
  • Where brands differ: Android version, Wi-Fi generation, speaker, remote type and the accuracy of their spec claims.
  • Magcubic's own markers: consistent model names, an air-mouse voice remote on its upper models, dedicated power adapters and a 47-inch tripod.
A projector called HY300 from another brand is not a Magcubic, and Magcubic's voice remote says outright that it does not work with other brands' Pro+ models.

How the names compare across brands is laid out in the HY300 specs rundown.

From the original HY300 to the Ultra: Magcubic's ladder

Magcubic's HY300 models climb in small steps, and every one of them projects a native 720p picture. The steps change the radio, the sound, the focus and the light, not the panel.

  1. HY300 (original): 200 ANSI lumens, 5W stereo speakers, 2.4 and 5GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4 on the current version, automatic keystone with a manual menu as backup.
  2. HY300 Pro (classic): the same light with dual-band Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and auto keystone in a 350 g body.
  3. HY300 Pro (2026): 30% smaller than the Pro before it, with an external power supply for cooler running and HDMI and USB ports.
  4. HY300 Pro+: adds a 5W SoundBase speaker in the stand and an air-mouse remote with voice commands; newer units run Android 14.
  5. HY300 Ultra: 260 ANSI lumens, electric focus from the remote and Android 14 on an Allwinner H726.
  6. HY300F Football Edition: Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and a 5W speaker in a ball-shaped body, with 1GB RAM, 8GB storage and a 10000:1 contrast claim.

Several of these also come as bundles with the 47-inch tripod: the HY300, the classic Pro, the Pro+ and the Ultra each have one. For a first projector the bundle saves hunting for a stand that fits.

Beyond the HY300 name, Magcubic's HY310, HY320 Pro and HY350 Max step up to native 1080p. Those are weighed against the HY300 in the HY300 vs HY320 comparison, and the Pro+ against the Pro in HY300 Pro+ vs HY300 Pro.

Who else sells an HY300

HY300 projectors and the accessories made for them, counted by brand, September 2026. Magcubic leads, but the HY300 name runs across dozens of brands.

How a Magcubic differs from other HY300 brands

Another HY300 projector brand sometimes goes further than Magcubic on a single feature. ClokoWe's HY300 Pro+ adds auto focus and a starry-sky ceiling mode with a sleep timer, Alwtniet's HY300 Pro runs Android 14, and SKUOU's HY300 Ultra rates 220 ANSI lumens with a described motorised focus.

Where Magcubic tends to win is consistency and follow-through. Its model names mean the same thing from box to box, its upper models share one voice remote, and it tells owners to update the system before judging the apps. That makes a Magcubic easier to fix, remote and power it years later.

  • Spec honesty: Magcubic quotes ANSI lumens; some rivals print 8,000 or 15,000 lumens in their spec fields, figures no palm-sized LED projector reaches.
  • Resolution claims: Magcubic lists every HY300 at 1280 × 720, while a few rivals claim native 1080p for an HY300.
  • Parts: Magcubic sells its own adapters for the Pro family and for the Ultra.

Magcubic's football-shaped HY300F

Best for match nights and kids' rooms Magcubic HY300F Football Edition

Magcubic's HY300F wraps the HY300 in a football-shaped body with Android 14 on an Allwinner H726, Wi-Fi 6 and a 5W speaker. Its 0.9:1 lens throws 30 to 130 inches from 1.96 to 8.5 feet.

Tripods, adapters and remotes made to match

A Magcubic HY300 mini projector is easy to complete because the maker sells the pieces around it. The 47-inch tripod is the natural first add-on, since it lifts the lens above sofa backs and heads.

The tripod extends from 19 to 47 inches with quick-lock knobs, has a ball head that turns 360° and tilts 90°, and holds up to 11 lb on a standard 1/4-inch screw. It folds to 21.7 inches for a bag and comes with a phone holder for its second life as a ring-light stand.

  • HY300 Pro adapter: fits the Pro, Pro+, HY300X, HY300Max and HY300F, on a 1 m cord for 100–240V mains.
  • HY300 Ultra adapter: a separate supply that also lists the HY310, HY310X, HY320F and HY320 Pro.
  • Voice remote: a replacement made for the Magcubic Pro+, Ultra and HY310 only, with a pairing manual in the box.
  • Infrared remote: the common HY300 Pro replacement fits Magcubic's Pro but states it does not fit the original Magcubic HY300.

Pro and Ultra adapters are not interchangeable, so match the model name printed under the projector before ordering one.

Bought a Magcubic with no tripod? The same 47-inch stand is sold on its own and fits any HY300 with a 1/4-inch thread underneath.

Mounts, cases and tripods from other makers are grouped by job in the HY300 accessories guide.

Your first Magcubic: which box to unwrap

Start with the room, not the model number. Magcubic's range covers a nightstand, a backpack, a ceiling and a lit living room, and each has a clear first pick.

  • A bedroom with the curtains drawn: the HY300 Pro+, for its speaker base and voice remote.
  • Trips, dorms and a small bag: the 2026 HY300 Pro, the most compact Magcubic body.
  • Films on the ceiling from bed: the HY300 Ultra, because focus runs from the remote.
  • Match nights and a kid's room: the HY300F, the football-shaped HY300.
  • A bigger, brighter picture: the HY320 Pro or HY350 Max, beyond the HY300 name.

Telling the Magcubic models apart at home is simple. The Pro+ and Ultra carry a 5W SoundBase speaker in the base of the stand, the 2026 Pro is the most compact body, and the HY300F is round like a ball. For anything else, the model name printed on the label underneath settles it before you order a remote or an adapter.

Whichever you pick, run the system update on the first evening. Magcubic's notes for the Pro, Pro+ and Ultra all ask for it, and it is the fix for most app hiccups; the steps are in the firmware update guide.

If budget decides it, the HY300 price guide shows what each step costs, and the Ultra vs Pro comparison shows what the extra light and electric focus are worth.

Before the lights go down

Asked on movie night

Is Magcubic the original maker of the HY300?

Magcubic is the brand most tied to the HY300 name and sells a full range under it, but many other brands sell HY300 projectors too, and the factory behind each is not published.

Magcubic HY300 Pro or Pro+: which one?

The Pro+ adds a 5W SoundBase speaker and an air-mouse voice remote to the same 720p, 200 ANSI picture. The 2026 Pro is smaller and simpler for travel.

Which Magcubic HY300 runs Android 14?

The HY300 Ultra and HY300F name Android 14 on an Allwinner H726, and newer HY300 Pro+ units list Android 14 too.

Does Magcubic update HY300 firmware?

Yes. Magcubic asks owners of the HY300 Pro, Pro+ and Ultra to update to the latest system version, which fixes most built-in app problems.

Do Magcubic accessories fit other HY300 brands?

The 47-inch tripod fits any HY300 with a 1/4-inch thread. Power adapters and the voice remote are made for Magcubic models, so check the list first.

Mini projectors that share a shelf with the HY300 without being one: Aurzen's Roku TV models, the AKIYO O1 Pro, and Magcubic's own HY310, HY320 Pro and HY350 Max, several of them with native 1080p.
