ear&ear's HY300 Pro is a straightforward 720p swivel projector with dual-band Wi-Fi 6, a quiet fan and a headphone-ready audio output, and it comes in a second build that turns movie night into a karaoke night with two wireless microphones.
ear&ear sells its HY300 Pro two ways. The standard build is a white swivel projector for films and streaming. The karaoke build, in black, adds two wireless microphones and singing apps, so the same wall that shows a film at eight can show lyrics at ten.
Both builds share the core of the projector:
The standard build is rated at 200 ANSI lumens with a 1500:1 contrast ratio. It adds a 3.5 mm audio output beside HDMI and USB, weighs 0.67 kg and carries a 12-month warranty.
The karaoke build brings the two wireless microphones, karaoke apps, a lyrics overlay and echo cancellation that balances voice against music. Its speaker uses dual drivers in a bass-reflex design and can play as a Bluetooth speaker when a phone connects. The box adds an HDMI cable and a power adapter. Its notes quote 160 ANSI lumens, so plan on a slightly dimmer wall than the standard build.

Karaoke asks different things of a projector than a film does. Lyrics must be readable from across the room, the voices must sit on top of the music, and the setup has to survive a crowd. The karaoke build of the ear&ear Pro is designed around that evening.
| Evening | Picture | Build that fits |
|---|---|---|
| Karaoke with friends | 60–80 in, lights dimmed | Karaoke build with both mics |
| Bedroom film | 80–100 in, lights off | Either build |
| Ceiling cartoons for the kids | 70–90 in | Either build |
| Late film on headphones | Any size | Standard build, 3.5 mm output |
The karaoke build states a throw from 0.5 to 3 m. In a lounge, that lets the projector sit on a side table while singers stand clear of the beam, their shadows off the lyrics.
For singing, a smaller picture is kinder. Lyrics stay bright and sharp at 60 to 80 inches even with a few lamps on, while 120 inches turns them pale.
Tips for a smooth sing-along:
On film nights, the standard build's 200 lumens fill a bedroom wall at 80 to 100 inches. The HY300 screen size chart gives the distance for each size, and the brightness guide helps when a lamp has to stay on.
The standard ear&ear Pro arrives with a power cord, a remote and a user manual. The karaoke build adds an HDMI cable, which the standard box does not include. Either way, setup follows the familiar HY300 steps.
Karaoke owners should pair both microphones before the first guest rings the bell, then test the echo level with a quiet ballad. Karaoke apps come built into that build, so there is nothing extra to install.
The 3.5 mm output earns its place. A wired soundbar or headphones play in sync with the picture, while some Bluetooth headphones on version 5.0 trail the lips by a fraction of a second.

Several HY300 Pros share a near-identical description, and the ear&ear Pro is one of them. Its standout is the karaoke build and a 200-lumen rating on the standard box. Elsewhere, the differences between it and its cousins are slim.
| Model | Light | System | Stand-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| ear&ear HY300 Pro | 200 ANSI | Android 13 or TV 11 | Karaoke build, 3.5 mm output |
| ear&ear HY300 | 160 ANSI | Android 11 | The same maker's plainer model |
| Chicdaze HY300 Pro | 160 ANSI | Android TV 11 | H.265 playback, near-identical design |
| SKUOU HY300 Pro Game Console Edition | 230 ANSI | Android 13 | Brighter rating, same Mali-G31 |
Choose the ear&ear Pro for the karaoke build, or for a standard Pro with a wired audio output and a 12-month warranty. Its HY300 sibling suits a tighter budget and a darker room. For a newer Android with a named chip, look further up the range.
Against the Chicdaze Pro, the standard ear&ear build quotes 40 more lumens and a 12-month warranty; the two otherwise read as close relatives. Against SKUOU's Game Console Edition, it gives up 30 lumens but keeps the karaoke option, which neither rival offers. That microphone pair is why this model earns a place over its many look-alikes.
Before ordering:
Only the black karaoke build, which includes two wireless microphones and karaoke apps. The standard white build has no mics.
ear&ear names Android 13 in the model name but describes Android TV 11 in the feature notes, so check the About screen after setup.
Yes. The standard build has a 3.5 mm audio output next to HDMI and USB, which avoids Bluetooth delay.
200 ANSI lumens on the standard build with a 1500:1 contrast ratio; the karaoke build's notes quote 160.
