To connect Miracast-compatible Android phone to a TV wirelessly you will need either a Miracast-TV or dongle. Many TV manufacturers like LG, Panasonic, and Sony started to integrate are Miracast into their products.
If you have a smart TV that has built-in Miracast technology, then you can use the Miracast screen mirroring function that is inside your phone to share your content. There is no need for extra hardware.
Here is an overview of how to connect an Android phone to a TV if both devices have built-in Miracast.
- Make sure your Android device is on the same WiFi network as your TV
- Use the screen mirroring function built-in to your Android device to connect to your TV
- Adjust the source on your TV to ensure that it displays the screen mirroring signal from your Android device
In case, your Android phones have Miracast technology but your TV does not, you can still connect the two. You will need to purchase a solution for wireless screen mirroring like Miracast dongle or, alternatively, Chromecast dongle.
