How to Connect Samsung Galaxy S4 to TV

Yay! You would love to browse the web and view your favorite multimedia content including YouTube videos, live cricket matches, news, movies, games, music and more on the giant screen of your HDTV because at times the 5-inch wide-screen Samsung Galaxy S4 doesn’t fit to be an ideal one to experience the richness of these contents. You can then connect your Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone to your HDTV and enjoy rich, web and multimedia content on your High-Definition TV right from your Samsung Galaxy S4. Besides, the connection will help you mirror your smartphone contents on to your HDTV.

Things you will need:

• Samsung Galaxy S4
• HDTV
• Samsung Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL)-to-HDMI adapter
• HDMI cable
• Cellular data connection (if desired to browse the web)

Step 1:

Connect your Samsung Galaxy S4 to your TV using the MHL-to-HDMI adapter. Plug the thin end (micro USB) of the adapter into the micro USB post of your Samsung Galaxy S4 and connect its charger (Galaxy S4’s) to an available (usually on the side) port on it (the adapter) and then run it into a power outlet (your Galaxy S4’s charger should be now connected to a power source to make the MHL adapter charge).
Now plug the HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the MHL adapter and plug its other end (HDMI cable’s end) into the HDMI port of your HDTV. The physical connection is complete now. Move on to the next step now.

Step 2:

You can now begin to play your favorite movie on your Samsung Galaxy S4 and watch it on your HDTV’s big screen. If you want to connect to your Wi-Fi network and begin Wi-Fi mirroring on your TV from your Samsung device, then tap “Settings” from the Home screen, tap “Connections”, and then tap “Screen Mirroring”. Set the “Screen Mirroring” feature on, select your SSID device, and connect to it. The mirroring will begin and you can connect to your Wi-Fi network, browse the web and do a lot more.

P.S. For better audio quality, you can tweak some settings on your Samsung Galaxy S4 device and get going. To do so, tap “Settings”, tap “My Device”, “Accessory”, tap “Audio Output”, and then tap “Surround”. Exit all the screens and you are ready to experience a rich, sound quality for your multimedia content.
