Screen mirroring from a Lenovo laptop typically involves using the built-in Windows features or, in some cases, third-party software. Here’s a breakdown of the common methods:

1. Using Windows Built-in Features (Miracast):

• What it is:
  • Windows 10 and 11 have built-in support for Miracast, a wireless display technology.
• How to:
  • Check Compatibility: Ensure your Lenovo laptop and the target display (TV, projector, etc.) support Miracast.
  • Connect to a Wireless Display:
    • Press the Windows key + P. This opens the “Project” menu.
    • Click “Connect to a wireless display.”
    • Your laptop will scan for available devices.
    • Select your target display from the list.
    • Follow any on-screen instructions.
• Key points:
  • Relies on Miracast compatibility.
  • Generally requires a Wi-Fi network, though Miracast can sometimes work without one.
  • Good for wirelessly displaying your laptop’s screen.

2. Using HDMI Cable:

• What it is:
  • A wired connection using an HDMI cable.
• How to:
  • Connect one end of the HDMI cable to your Lenovo laptop’s HDMI port and the other end to your TV’s HDMI port.
  • Use your TV’s remote to select the correct HDMI input.
  • If needed, adjust display settings on your Lenovo laptop (Windows key + P).
• Key points:
  • Provides a stable and reliable connection.
  • No Wi-Fi network is required.
  • Requires an HDMI port on both your laptop and TV.

3. Using Chromecast (with Google Chrome):

• What it is:
  • If you have a Chromecast device connected to your TV, you can cast your Chrome browser or your entire desktop.
• How to:
  • Ensure your Lenovo laptop and Chromecast device are on the same Wi-Fi network.
  • Open the Google Chrome browser.
  • Click the three dots (More menu) in the top-right corner.
  • Select “Cast.”
  • Choose your Chromecast device.
  • Select what you want to cast (tab, desktop, file).
• Key points:
  • Requires a Chromecast device and a Wi-Fi network.
