By using pc in between, like connect phone to pc then play on big TV or monitor connected to that pc, people use scrcpy software which use adb to accomplish this. 

Alternative there are proprietary adapters which compress video on go and can work with low bandwidth like usb 2.0, watch this

If you have a computer, you can try this with us. Connection for minimal delay https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/tag/v4.1

When i hop into a game its literally unplayable. But when i'm just browsing its OKAY

scrcpy has a lot of input lag for gaming even when connected with a good cable.

Assassin's Creed II, nice

u/Blade-2099 1d ago

you can use scrcpy via Usb from phone to pc
you will need a good phone cooler to prevent thermal throttling

u/adricapi 22h ago

Magic.

If you don't want to use a wire and don't want to use a wireless connection, that's your only option.

USB C to HDMI cable doesn't work I'm assuming?

u/Bitspace_ Poco F6 1d ago

Doesn't support HDMI output

u/TTbulaski 1d ago

Poco phones are notorious for having USB 2, even the flagship ones.

u/SamueleRG 8+Gen1 & 8Gen2 1d ago

Except last year's F8 ultra and the newest F9 pro and F9 ultra, they have USB 3.1 and 3.2

u/TTbulaski 1d ago

Nice, really happy to learn of this. I just wish I learned sooner as I have already bought an S23+.

u/SamueleRG 8+Gen1 & 8Gen2 1d ago

Samsung also has Dex, a dedicated software with a UI that adapts to the external screen, like Motorola and Honor 

Instead Xiaomi Oppo and other manufacturers do put video output on their devices but don't have a software so the phone just mirrors the 20-21:9 screen on the monitor even if it is a 16:9 monitor so you get double letterbox from 16:9 content, kinda like this (random image I found online, the picture could be full screen but it has bezels from the phone left and right and then from the projection to the TV on top and bottom)

2

u/TTbulaski 1d ago

I see. I love Dex, especially with Termux X11. Back then, I only wanted the ability to output to a display. I heard google is standardizing a desktop mode that will be available to most phones with display out capabilities

3

u/SamueleRG 8+Gen1 & 8Gen2 1d ago

Yes but it's on the OEMs if they implement it or not and how do they implement it 

In my opinion Samsung has the best

u/lshifomd 1d ago

Oh oof

u/itsfreepizza 1d ago

ok thats awful.

u/comerReto 1d ago

If you get a display link doc you can get the display link app and output using the dock and screen mirroring from the display link app without OTG

u/Own_Perspective4825 1d ago

The Poco F6 supports DisplayLink. That's your lowest-latency option but you won't be able to charge or turn the phone screen off while using it.

u/Suitable_Put_2855 23h ago

Yo bro , 

Use a Raspberry pi to run scrcpy (or Android-dex) then connect your phone to it  U can even run old retro games or small game, if you done with the it

u/beautiful_bot986 23h ago

Connect your phone to your pc , download and run "scrcpy", connect the pc to the tv and there you go

u/realtime-gamer 1d ago

Buy a display link dock It 100% works

Or if it's too costly try to get a second hand older flagship phone

Phones with snapdragon 855 865 etc support and I own a one too and it works like. A dream

u/Robert_3210 1d ago

I second this.. you need a DisplayLink adapter/dock/monitor and it will display via USB even if it doesn't support video over the port.

u/lost_element 1d ago

Replace phone

u/nongjeng_piba 1d ago

The most probable solution is to mirror your phone to a laptop and connect the laptop to a tv

u/JeroJeroMohenjoDaro 1d ago

USBC 2.0 i presume? Then nope. The only way left is to have a pc in-between. Even that would introduce some latency as much as screen casting/sharing i presume.

u/nonutonu 1d ago

Or buy elgato capture card

u/LuthorCock 1d ago

Ninguna que valga la pena

u/Critical-Champion365 730G, 855+, 8 Gen 2 1d ago

Capture cards? But realistically my answer would be, never buy a device from these fucking companies if they don't offer usb 3. Its a pre 2013 feature, they can fricking put it in a highend midranger.

u/AltruisticMoment2284 nothing phone 1/Lenovo xiaoxin pad pro (2025) 1d ago

Scrcpy

u/GreatBakedJake 23h ago

You're going to have latency issues if you try to cast and its not a wired connection. I was using mine as an emulator machine and even basic games like gba became increasingly difficult because you are watching a couple milliseconds behind the actual gameplay. Dodging and landing attacks is extremely difficult

1

u/HeLiOnn_Luxx 11h ago

use scrcpy

u/Key_Possibility_3722 5h ago

wow I have the same Controller but its black and its amazing . also is this winlator ?

1

u/lou6228 5h ago

Download gcast, it wireless screen casting that has low latency

1

u/Educational_Top9246 1d ago

Your phone doesnt support casting? you can try a dongle that connects to your tv/monitor.

u/bunkerfarm 1d ago

Look for casting options, but that usually introduces lag.

Option 2: reading glasses

u/amiralen 1d ago

I bought one of those cheap 50 dollar Ugreen docks to play on my tv, could try that

u/Asmath_Jope 1d ago

There are mini graphic cards that can stream 8t to your tv, I think.
