Ligar o smartphone à televisão? Eis três técnicas infalíveis
Connect your smartphone to the TV? Here are three infallible techniques

If it still does not, it certainly has crossed your mind to have on the "big screen" of your television exactly what is happening on the "small screen" of your smartphone. To do this you must necessarily find a way to get the two devices to communicate with each other, something that can be done in several different ways.
And these methods, some more effective than others, depend a lot on the features and functionalities of both the TV and the smartphone. The goal is, as a general rule, the streaming of multimedia content that we want to see on television, maintaining the quality and the fluidity of reproduction, preferably.
On the other hand, games can also be the main reason to establish this connection, as well as the simple action of "mirroring" on the TV screen what we see at the moment on the smartphone screen.
Fruit of the desktop modes of some recent smartphones, for example, even to work we can resort to these processes, being that we can use a monitor located in the office instead of a television that we usually have installed in the living room.
But, after all, what are the ways to establish the connection simply and quickly? We can do this with cables and adapters suitable for this purpose, usually with a micro USB or USB-C connection on the "side" of the smartphone and an HDMI on the other end. There are specially designed accessories for the process, with extra ports for recharging the handset during connection.


Here are some alternatives:
-Connection with cables and adapters
-Wireless connection
-Connecting with Chromecast
-Connection via PC mode
In another perspective, if you have a Samsung S9 or Note9 in your pocket, as well as a Huawei Mate 20 Pro or P20 Pro, for example, know that these terminals have a PC / desktop mode that adapts the Android interface as soon as we connect it to a monitor or TV. This is one of the methods we mentioned above, which provides a desktop environment typical of computers, with mobile applications perfectly adapted to the mode of visualization and use in question. But there are also some mobile apps for iOS and Android that allow you to connect your smartphone to the TV instantly, almost, although this is a slightly less functional method. This is because it essentially serves to reproduce photos and videos that we have in the handset on the TV screen, leaving aside the streaming functions.
Examples include the Miracast Android and iMediaShare apps for iOS and Android capable of detecting compatible content in the smartphone's internal memory and sending them directly to the TV connected to the same wireless home network.
Wi-Fi network must help
An essential condition, at least in cases where the connection between the smartphone and the TV is established without the use of cables and adapters: your wireless network connection must have a smooth and optimized operation as the quality of the "transmission" of the HD content from smartphone to TV is dependent on this factor. If you experience increased difficulty, you can always consider the combination of a wireless network system with Powerline adapters, for example.
On the other hand, if the method you use to establish the connection is not one of the most effective ones, expect to find some "hit" problems between the screen resolution of the handset and the TV screen. Of course, attempting to play HD content on a Full HD or Ultra HD panel alone will result in "pixelated" images. Sapo
