Count the panel's pixels
A 1280 × 720 image contains 921,600 pixels; 1920 × 1080 contains 2,073,600. These dimensions alone do not describe brightness, contrast, focus or the quality of the source content.
The official HY300Pro H726 listing specifies 1280 × 720. That document does not yet establish which revision NÓVA will sell. We don't describe file compatibility as native resolution.
High-resolution input doesn't mean a high-resolution panel
A projector can process a signal or file and scale it to its panel. If the panel has fewer pixels than the source, the final image is adjusted to the panel's resolution.
Check decoded file formats and accepted input signals separately; they are not equivalent. We would only describe a unit as supporting a 4K signal after verifying that input, with its native resolution clearly stated alongside.
Decide with your room and a real test
Compare at the image size and viewing distance you'll actually use. Small text, subtitles and detail patterns help reveal differences without assuming one number describes the entire result.
Control ambient light and focus on both units. A mini projector in darkness and a premium television aren't equivalent use cases. Final price, connections and content also need to fit your plans.
Your questions answered.
Does a projector that accepts 4K project in 4K?
Only if its native resolution supports it. Accepting or decoding content is different from the panel's resolution.
