HY300 Pro

The Magic Cubic HY300 Pro is my under-$50 pick in this lineup, and it’s a good example of what the absolute budget tier looks like. You get a simple UI with apps like Netflix/YouTube and a built-in Play Store section, plus manual focus and a swivel base for quick angle adjustments.

Pros

  • +Very affordable entry-level option
  • +Swivel base makes positioning easy
  • +HDMI and USB-A for external devices/media
  • +Can screencast from iPhone or Android

Cons

  • -Lowest brightness in my tests
  • -Loudest fan noise in the lineup (about 42 dB)
  • -Worst speaker sound compared to the others
  • -Manual focus only
