Don’t throw away your old TV! This trick transforms it into a Smart TV, even more powerful than a new model.

And what about screen sharing from the phone?

Some recent televisions, even non-smart models, support screen mirroring via technologies like  Miracast, DLNA, or MHL . This is convenient for streaming videos or photos with a single click. However, be aware that it’s not always very stable and isn’t the ideal solution for everyday use.

Which solution should you choose for your TV?

Here is our quick mini-guide:

• TV with HDMI?  → Opt for an HDMI dongle (Fire Stick, Chromecast, etc.)
• TV without HDMI?  → Get an Android TV box + HDMI to RCA adapter
• Small budget + old computer lying around?  → Turn it into a multimedia center via HDMI cable

Each solution is simple, economical, and effective.  No need to spend €600 on a new television!
