Netflix in its TV edition on the XKTUJW HY300 Pro

Plenty of budget projectors run a phone build of Netflix that expects a touchscreen and turns sideways on the wall. The XKTUJW HY300 Pro preloads the official TV edition instead, the one laid out for a remote and a sofa. YouTube comes preinstalled beside it, and further apps download from the built-in app store on Android 13.

XKTUJW is unusually open about the hardware underneath:

  • T950S processor running Android 13.
  • 1GB of memory and 8GB of storage, enough for a handful of streaming apps.
  • Dual-band Wi-Fi on 2.4 and 5 GHz, with Bluetooth 5.0 for speakers and headphones.
  • QuickShare casting from phones and tablets, no TV box needed.

Eight gigabytes shrinks quickly once the system has taken its share. Keep the installed apps to the services you watch weekly, and play big film files from a USB stick rather than copying them in.

The picture follows the HY300 pattern: a native 1280 × 720 LCD panel that decodes 4K and scales it down. XKTUJW lights it with an RGB LED rated for 30,000 hours at 160 ANSI lumens and a 2000:1 contrast ratio, with more than 75% brightness uniformity across the frame.

Why the TV edition matters. On a projector without touch, the TV build of Netflix is the one that behaves: rows you move through with arrow keys, a picture that fills the wall, and no need for a mouse pointer to press play.

The whole kit is a slim cylinder, light enough for a backpack on a camping weekend. It stands on the swivel base the HY300 family is known for, so the lens tips from the wall to the ceiling without moving the body.

Android 13 is two versions newer than the Android 11 still found on many budget HY300s. For a projector that may stay in the family for years, that newer base gives apps more room before they stop updating.

Fifty inches from one metre in a box-room bedroom

The XKTUJW's 0.9:1 throw ratio is what makes it a small-room projector. It puts a 50-inch picture on the wall from just 1 m away, so even a narrow bedroom with the bed pushed against one wall has space for a proper screen. XKTUJW suggests 80 to 130 inches for films.

Lens to wallDiagonalGood for
1.0 m50 inBox room, or with a lamp on
1.6 m80 inBedroom films after dark
2.0 m100 inLounge wall with the curtains shut
2.6 m130 inBlacked-out rooms and garden nights

Distances come from the 0.9:1 ratio and round to the nearest 10 cm. At 160 ANSI lumens, the picture looks strongest at 50 to 80 inches; the full 130 needs real darkness.

Where the XKTUJW fits well:

  • Kids' cartoon nights on a bedroom wall, remote in a parent's hand.
  • Dorm rooms, where a metre of desk depth is all you have.
  • Backyard films on a sheet after dusk, with a Bluetooth speaker beside the screen.

The short throw also helps with ceiling films. On a nightstand under a standard 2.4 m ceiling, the lens sits roughly 1.7 m from the plaster, which works out to around 85 inches overhead. Swivel up, refocus once, and the picture lands above the pillows.

The built-in 3W speaker is quieter than the 5W bases on some HY300s. It carries dialogue in a small room; anything larger wants the 3.5 mm output or Bluetooth. More distances sit in the HY300 screen size chart.

QuickShare casting and a figure-8 cord on the first evening

The XKTUJW kit is short: the projector, an infrared remote, a manual and a figure-8 power cord. That last detail is handy, because the cord plugs straight into the body with no separate brick. A lost one is replaced by any standard two-pin figure-8 lead from a drawer at home.

  1. Plug in, join the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band if the router offers it, and install the latest system update.
  2. Sign in to Netflix and YouTube with the infrared remote, pointing it at the projector.
  3. Turn the glass lens's focus ring until the corners are as sharp as the centre.
  4. Let the sensors square the frame with auto vertical keystone; slide the body if the picture leans sideways.
  5. Try QuickShare casting from a phone for photos and home clips.

Films from a USB stick play in H.265 (HEVC), the compact format most phones record in. MP3 music and JPG photos play from the same stick, which turns the projector into a slideshow for a family evening.

  • HDMI takes a laptop, a TV stick or a PS5.
  • USB 2.0 reads sticks and drives.
  • 3.5 mm feeds wired headphones with no Bluetooth lag.

QuickShare suits photos, home videos and presentations. Paid services such as Netflix usually block mirrored video, so play them from the TV edition app on the projector itself instead.

The projector draws about 45 W. The HY300 manual walks through menus, and the phone connection guide explains why some paid apps go black when mirrored.

XKTUJW Pro beside Alwtniet's Android 14 Pro and Magcubic's 2026 Pro

The XKTUJW sits in the thick of the HY300 Pro crowd, so the choice turns on system, light and size. It wins on clarity about its own hardware and on the TV edition of Netflix. It gives ground on brightness and on the remote.

Pick the XKTUJW for a bedroom or dorm where Netflix is the main event and the projector rarely leaves its shelf. A brighter room or a louder speaker points to the Alwtniet, and constant travel favours the smaller Magcubic.

Against the Chicdaze and Xorytin Pros, which also sit at 160 ANSI lumens, the XKTUJW's advantages are the newer Android and the TV edition of Netflix. Brightness is a draw between them, so the system is what separates the three.

What to weigh for your room:

  • Storage. 8GB suits a few apps; heavy app users do better with a TV stick on HDMI.
  • Remote. Infrared arrow keys are fine for Netflix rows, slow for typing a password.
  • Warranty. XKTUJW covers the projector for one year.
  • Mounting. A ceiling mount or tripod frees up the nightstand.

One more point in its favour is the power design. A figure-8 cord straight into the body means one less brick behind the nightstand and one less part to lose on a trip, while several rivals rely on a separate adapter that must match the model exactly.
