Screen Mirroring is a great option to display your phone, tablet, or computer screen on another device screen wirelessly. Sony makes it easy with the help of built-in Chromecast functionality on its Smart TVs. However, it also has Miracast support to display the pictures and videos that you stored locally on your mobile or computer. Like Chromecast, Screen Mirroring on Bravia and other Sony TV models lets you cast media contents over Wi-Fi.
