How can I connect my Samsung Galaxy A71 to my TV via USB-C/HDMI adapter cable?

[Android Central Question]

I cannot figure out how to connect my A71 to my old shop non smart TV. Was plug and play with my last 2 Samsung phones. Can't find any info on it. Ready to send this phone back. I only want to know how to connect with a cable. Not bluetooth or wifi. Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! The A71 isn't in this list, although Samsung does caution that this list is only for Australian variants: www.samsung.com/au/support/mobile-devices/how-do-i-connect-my-phone-to-my-tv-using-hdmi/. I haven't been able to find a corresponding list for other countries.

In addition, this Verizon help page about sharing the screen doesn't mention connecting via cable as an option: www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-232587/

Off Samsungs webpage for their USB C to HDMI adapter.

Please Note: This feature is only available on the following devices:

Galaxy S8 and S8+

Note 8

Galaxy S9 and S9+

Galaxy Book

Note 9

Galaxy Tab S4

Galaxy S10e, S10/10+ & S10 5G

Tab S5e

Note 10/ 10+ and Note 10+ 5G

Tab S6

Galaxy Fold

A90 5G

It looks like budget and midrange devices aren't included. Good possibility the USB C port on the A71 doesn't support video out.

After many cables and many failures, this product worked flawlessly. And without having to use wifi or hotspot data. Perfect for my RV. Now I can stream Netflix, prime and YouTube using my unlimited LTE data.

Vinnycas, if a Miracast dongle will work, any Miracast dongle should work (and there are $8 Miracast dongles on Amazon and eBay).
