  • Keep case on with extra-long Micro USB tip fits thick cases

What this cable does

This Micro USB to HDMI adapter uses MHL technology to mirror the screen of a compatible phone or tablet onto a TV or monitor. It is intended for owners of specific Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, S5, Note 2, Note 3 and a handful of other listed models that support MHL output. The extra-long tip lets the connector seat fully even when the device sits inside a typical protective case.

Passive operation and power

The adapter draws the small amount of power it needs directly from the host device’s Micro USB port, so no external power supply is required during normal use. Because the connection is passive, it adds negligible heat and produces no audible noise. Note that the Galaxy S5 and Note 3 will not charge while this cable is connected, even though their USB 3.0 ports accept the Micro USB plug.

Build notes and daily use

The red cable assembly measures between two and three metres, giving enough reach to connect a handset to a living-room display without strain. HDCP support means protected streaming apps can play on the external screen, and the TV remote can navigate the phone’s interface when the handset implements MHL remote-control commands. The adapter will not function with Galaxy S6, S7, S8 or any later models, nor with devices that lack MHL support altogether.

Questions about this item

How do I install the CBSAMS-S3-AV adapter with my phone case on?

Plug the Micro USB end into your device; the extra-long tip reaches through the case so you do not need to remove it, then connect the HDMI end to the TV and select the correct HDMI input.

What maintenance or replacement will this cable need later?

Inspect the Micro USB and HDMI connectors for bent pins or fraying; if the cable becomes intermittent or the sheath splits, replace the whole adapter cable.

What is the first limit I hit during sustained use with a Galaxy S5 or Note 3?

Those devices use USB 3.0 ports that are compatible with this Micro USB cable but will not charge while the adapter is in use, so battery life becomes the limiting factor.
