The OnePlus 6 has a bigger screen than any of its predecessors, thanks to its notched design, but you’re still likely to have a much bigger alternative on hand: a TV, monitor or projector. Here are three ways that you can connect to these bigger screens, including both wired and wireless methods.<\/p>\n

1. USB-C to HDMI Adapter<\/h3>\n

With plenty of\u00a0USB-C to HDMI Adapters<\/a>\u00a0available and extremely straight forward to use, we feel that a wired connection is definitely the best way to mirror your OnePlus 6 to your TV. We recommend the\u00a0Olixar USB-C to HDMI 4K Adapter Cable<\/a>\u00a0due to its effortless set-up and all-in-one nature. Coming with a HDMI-in, the Goobay cable provides a bridge between your phone and your TV. By plugging into your HDMI port and then into your OnePlus 6\u2019s USB-C port, you can instantly mirror your phones content onto the big screen.<\/p>\n

2. Stream using Google Chromecast<\/h3>\n

The Google Chromecast dongle is one of the easiest ways to stream content from your phone to your TV. To set up, simply plug your Chromecast into your TVs HDMI port and follow the on-screen instructions to connect it to your home Wi-Fi network using the Google Home app. From here, press the cast app to start streaming or open the Google Home app itself to mirror your OnePlus 6 to your TV.<\/p>\n

3. Miracast mirroring<\/h3>\n

Many smart TVs come with Miracast options built-in and will support the OnePlus 6. Open the\u00a0Quick Connect\u00a0button in the notification shade,\u00a0Scan for nearby devices,\u00a0and go through the interface to select the compatible TV you want to connect to.<\/p>\n

If your TV doesn\u2019t support Miracast out of the box, you can use Amazon\u2019s Fire TV Stick or Samsung\u2019s own HomeSync and AllShare Cast dongles\u00a0to add this functionality. (For the Fire TV Stick, you\u2019ll need to hold down the home button on the device\u2019s remote control, and select mirroring before the stick is visible in the 6\u2019s list of devices.)<\/p>\n
