In addition, from the 2020 model, you can mirror your phone by simply touching on the TV. Various contents such as photos, videos, and apps on your smartphone will be shown on a larger screen and feel more impressed.

The Samsung Smart View app lets you enjoy content stored on your mobile and PC on your Samsung Smart TV. You can also control the TV, using your device as a second remote.
