Amz Camel pitches its HY300 Plus as the step after the HY300 Pro: the same swivel cylinder on a 5W sound base, now with electric focus, 210 ANSI lumens and Bluetooth 5.4.
Amz Camel calls the HY300 Plus the updated successor to the HY300 Pro, and the headline change is focus. The lens is driven by a small motor, so the edge of the picture comes into line from a button instead of a fingertip on the barrel. That matters most when the projector is tipped back toward the ceiling and the lens points away from you.
The maker lists four upgrades over the Pro it replaces:
Carried over from the Pro are the Mali-G31 graphics, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and an automatic vertical keystone that squares a tilted picture within seconds. The 180° base swings the head from the wall to the ceiling, and the whole thing weighs 0.83 lb, light enough to move between rooms one-handed.
At 3.7 × 3.7 × 6.9 inches, the body is a little taller than a plain Pro because of the speaker base. It still fits a nightstand beside a lamp and a glass of water, and it travels in a backpack for a dorm, a cabin or a camping trip.

Amz Camel gives a throw distance of 0.8 to 3 m, which covers everything from a nightstand pushed against a small bedroom wall to a coffee table across a lounge. It does not print a throw ratio. Most HY300 lenses are quoted near 0.9:1, and if this one follows them, the sizes work out roughly as follows.
| Lens to wall | Approximate picture | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 0.8 m | About 40 in | Bedside cartoons, a dorm desk |
| 1.2 m | About 60 in | Ceiling film above a single bed |
| 1.6 m | About 80 in | Bedroom wall with the lights off |
| 2.0 m | About 100 in | Living room with curtains drawn |
| 3.0 m | About 150 in | Only in full darkness |
Brightness sets the practical ceiling long before the lens does. At 210 ANSI lumens, a picture of 60 to 90 inches keeps colour and contrast after sunset, while the largest sizes turn washed out unless the room is truly dark.
The electric focus earns its keep in two spots:
Walls matter as much as distance. A smooth, pale matte surface returns more of those 210 lumens than a textured or coloured one, and a white sheet pinned flat does better than a patterned wallpaper. For a matching wall or ceiling size, the screen size guide works through distances in more detail.
Outdoors, wait until the sky is fully dark. Dusk light on a garden fence flattens the picture, and the speaker base sounds thin against traffic or wind, so pack a Bluetooth speaker for anything larger than a family on a blanket.
Setting up the HY300 Plus follows the usual HY300 routine, with one extra step for the motorized lens. Budget ten minutes before the film starts, most of it on Wi-Fi and a software check.
Phone mirroring runs over Wi-Fi, and Amz Camel notes the phone and projector must sit on the same network. Streaming apps such as Prime Video and YouTube run on the projector itself, which keeps the phone free for the group chat during the film.
Bluetooth 5.4 opens a few extras beyond sound:
For a console or laptop, HDMI is the steadier route, and an AV input covers older players such as a DVD deck from the loft. Wired sources skip the Wi-Fi hop, so fast games and subtitles stay in step with the picture.
One habit pays off with any motorized lens: let the projector warm up for a minute before the final focus touch. The picture can drift slightly as the body settles, and a quick press of the focus control after the opening titles keeps faces sharp.
The phone and laptop connection guide covers AirPlay, casting and cables step by step.
The HY300 Plus sits in a crowded corner: Pro+ bodies with a speaker base. What sets it apart is electric focus paired with Bluetooth 5.4, which Magcubic's own Pro+ does not offer. Against newer Plus models, it gives up the Android version named on the box.
| Amz Camel HY300 Plus | Magcubic HY300 Pro+ | SKUOU HY300 Plus | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Focus | Electric | Manual | Electric |
| Brightness | 210 ANSI | 200 ANSI | 260 ANSI |
| System | Android TV OS | Built-in apps | Android 14 |
| Speaker | 5W base | 5W base | 5W base |
| Bluetooth | v5.4 | v5.4 | v5.4 |
Magcubic's Pro+ counters with an air-mouse remote that takes voice commands, useful in apps designed for phones. SKUOU's Plus pairs electric focus with Android 14 and a brighter lamp rating. Between the three, the Amz Camel is the middle road: motor focus and the newest Bluetooth without chasing the top lumen figure.
Before choosing, check these points:
For the wider picture, see Pro+ against Pro, which explains what the speaker base adds and what the smaller Pro body saves in a bag, or step up to Magcubic's HY300 Ultra, which also focuses electrically.
Its spec sheet lists a 720p-class panel, while one line of the maker's copy says 1080p. Expect a 720p picture that plays 1080p and 4K files by scaling them down.
A motor moves the lens so you adjust sharpness from a control rather than by hand. It helps most when the projector points at the ceiling or sits on a high shelf.
Yes. Amz Camel lists Bluetooth 5.4 support for game controllers as well as headphones and speakers.
The rated throw runs from 0.8 to 3 m. Around 1.6 m suits an 80-inch bedroom picture if the lens follows the usual HY300 ratio.
HDMI, USB and AV, plus dual-band Wi-Fi 6 for streaming and phone mirroring on the same network.
