Gather Your Gear
First things first, make sure you've got your HDMI cable and a compatible TV. Most Samsung phones use the USB-C to HDMI adapter, so if you've got one of those, you're good to go.

If you're using an adapter, plug the USB-C end into the adapter, then the HDMI end into your phone. Now, take the other end of the HDMI cable and plug it into your TV's HDMI port. Easy peasy!
