The functions of mobile phones have evolved over time, and today we can find that through these devices we can perform many things such as taking photos and videos , downloading applications, managing social networks, see our mail , surf the net or watch YouTube videos..
Many of these actions are not very comfortable to be able to do them from the small screen, but it is true that there are others such as the viewing of videos that often remain small and that is when we consider how to watch them on our TV or projector.
Difference between DNLA and Miracast
The DNLA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology will allow us to connect two devices without the need for any cables or other devices. In this way we will be able to play content on television such as photos and videos that we are viewing on the screen of our mobile phone. This technology does not allow the screen content itself to be reproduced.
For its part, Miracast technology offers a connection between two devices (in this case mobile and Smart TV) in much the same way as we would with an HDMI cable but wirelessly and with the difference that we can see on TV everything that we are displaying on the phone screen..
That is why we are going to show you from TechnoWikis different possibilities to know how to connect Pocophone to a Smart TV or Projector.
