Watch Sling TV on the big screen
If Sling TV has a TV app, a streaming stick is the cheapest way to it; a phone and an HDMI adapter is the fallback.
-
Streaming stick
Turns any TV with an HDMI port into one that runs the streaming apps — Prime Video included.
-
USB-C to HDMI adapter
The cheapest way from phone to TV: one adapter, one HDMI cable, and the app you already pay for plays on the big screen. Needs a phone with video out over USB-C — check yours.
-
Sound
TV speakers were not built for a stadium: a soundbar for the living room, or a portable speaker for the garden.
