This passive micro USB to HDMI MHL cable is the easy way to enjoy content from your MHL-enabled smartphone or tablet on the big screen. What Is MHL? MHL is Mobile High-Definition Link technology. By linking your MHL device, a smartphone for example, to a big screen TV you can view your phones content on the larger display. This allows you to watch movies you have downloaded as well as to share videos and photos with family and friends. One of the coolest benefits of MHL technology is the ability to play smartphone games on your big screen TV whilst enjoying fully immersive sound and HD display. You don’t have to display your content on a TV. You could also link your mobile device to any monitor or projector that is MHL enabled.
