Display Screen With Wireless Display Adapter Connected
Once out of the box it was a simple matter of plugging the HDMI and USB connections into the back of the display screen (a Samsung 48-inch Slim LED TV) in the office and selecting the appropriate HDMI input on the screen’s remote. The display then shows the Microsoft Logo and the identifier of the Wireless Display Adapter so you know which screen to connect to.

Connection from a Lumia 735 Windows phone was also straightforward, only a couple of taps in the settings menu was all it took to bring the phone display up on the big screen.

So, the downsides. Well, connecting from an Android device wasn’t quite as straightforward (despite the Droid logo on the packaging) and the Compatibility Chart on Microsoft’s website shows it’s a bit picky about Android versions (it lists 4.2 and 5.0 as being compatible). Apple devices, both iOS and Mac OSX are out- even though the Mac has an Intel chipset so you’d expect it to support the Intel standard.
However, despite those compatibility issues, in a primarily Windows environment it’s ideal. Any meeting room or lecture hall where a wired connection is going to be provided anyway the Apple users can be catered for and it makes a nice (and affordable) addition.
