Let’s skip the introduction - you already understand that the Samsung Galaxy S III is practically the foremost powerful mobile device to come back out however. It’s superb, however we have a tendency to appreciated conjointly the very fact that it came with a removable battery, expandable memory via microSD card slots and an easy MHL microUSB port for chargin. we are able to press on and on with the good things regarding the Galaxy S III, however the method it connects to an HDTV (and you’d wish to attach this phone to an HDTV, trust us) isn't one among them.
Actually, the method Samsung handled this is often horrific - we have a tendency to don’t understand the precise reason, however it seems currently that the SGS III needs a special MHL adapter. First, a proof. MHL is that the port on very cheap of your device that acts as a gateway for each charging the device and connecting it to external displays. For the latter, you wish an MHL to HDMI adapter, an easy dongle that enables you to any connect with an HDMI cable and a TV/monitor.
All sensible up to now - we’ve seen an equivalent mechanism work within the Galaxy S II, we’ve bought the MHL adapter, and currently we’re happy that we are able to use this within the SGS III... not. UK retailer Clove who simply got the new MHL-HDMI adapter explains why:
“Any previous MHL adapter won't work with the S3 because of the pin layout.”
It’s not an enormous deal because the adapter itself prices £24.98 as well as tax (that’s $39), however it’s annoying. and perhaps there’s a reason for that, however we have a tendency to honestly don’t understand it. you'll be able to facilitate us with a proof and/or thank Samsung within the comments below.
