Wirelessly share your screen on HDTV
Show your phone’s screen on HDTV with wireless display. Play a slideshow or games, watch movies, browse the web, use your apps — whatever you do on your phone is mirrored on your HDTV. To get started, you need a Miracast™ compatible HDTV or a Miracast wireless display adapter to connect to your HDTV (available at electronics retailers). After an easy setup, your devices communicate directly and do not require a shared Wi‑Fi router connection.
