Will V20 have wired HDMI out to monitor?

[recDNA]

I'm impressed with V10 wired hdmi capability. Much better than wireless mirroring. Will V20 have it? I'm also hoping for controllable multicolor led notifications and most of all an ir blaster! Just returned my Note 7 and really missed wired hdmi out and ir blaster.

I didn't even know the V10 had that feature.

MHL SO much better than wireless.

What exactly is it as I'm not familiar with the terminology.

I don't know the tecky tech but it means you can connect a device allowing wired hdmi screen mirroring on tv or monitor with hdmi input. Now add a Bluetooth mouse to your phone and youncan watch and control Netflix or whatever on any monitor wherever you are. Wired connection has better voice/picture sync.

Oh ok I've heard of this then. Just didn't know what it was called. I had one phone a long time ago that had this but OEMs seemed to abandon it pretty quickly.

Yes mybrazr maxx hd could connect to hdmi too and it didn't even need a gizmo, just a micro usb to hdmi connector

I've also read g5 still has mhl. (nobody can get it to work) No reason v20 shouldn't (fingers crossed)

How do you use MHL on a G5?

Although in theory it should work I couldn't find a single successful case recorded.

I think it may be slimport, not MHL but there are very few if any reports if folks actually using it in G5 or even V10. This is a very important feature to me but nobody else seems to give a....

Yes, LG V20 has slimport, which is more faster than mhl btw

LG V20 is listed on the slimport website SlimPort supported devices

This is pretty cool and I may purchase a slimport adapter for the V20 when I get it. To share pictures and videos with guests.

I won't believe it works until folks do it and give specifics.
