How to transfer the screen from Huawei phone to Xiaomi TV: all working ways

Broadcasting your smartphone screen to a large TV screen opens up new possibilities, from watching high-resolution movies to showing presentations or games on Xiaomi TV. However, users often face compatibility problems between devices of different brands - for example, when you need to transfer an image from a Huawei P60 Pro or Mate 50 to a Mi TV Q2 or Redmi Smart Fire TV. In this article, we will discuss all the current methods of connection, including wireless protocols, cable connections and workarounds for cases where standard methods do not work.

The Huawei + Xiaomi pair is unique in that both manufacturers use their own shells (EMUI and MIUI), which sometimes conflict with standard protocols like Miracast or Google Cast. We tested all methods on models from 2022-2026 and identified those that work guaranteed without lags and communication breaks. If you have previously tried unsuccessfully to connect, check network settings, firmware versions and follow our unique recommendations to eliminate Huawei-specific broadcast problems.

1. Wireless broadcast on Miracast (native method)

Miracast is a universal protocol for dubbing screens without the Internet, supported by most modern smartphones and TVs. On Huawei devices it is called Wireless Projection, and on Xiaomi it is called Wireless Projection. TV — Miracast or Screen Mirror: Minimum latency (up to 50ms) and Full support HD.

To connect:

• 📱 On Huawei phone, open Settings → Connections → Wireless projection (or use search by settings).
• 📺 On Xiaomi TV, go to Settings → Connections and sharing → Miracast (on some models, the path: Settings) → The device → Screen mirroring).
• 🔍 In the list of available devices on your phone, select the name of your Xiaomi TV (for example, MiTV-Q2-1234).
• ✅ Confirm the connection on both devices if you have a request for input. PIN-Check it out on the TV screen.

If the connection is not established:

• 🔄 Reboot both devices – it resets the cache of network modules.
• 📶 Make sure your phone and TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network (even if Miracast runs without internet, some Xiaomi models require a shared network for initial authorization).
• 🛠️ Update the TV firmware: go to Settings → On TV. → Updating the system.

⚠️ Note: On smartphones Huawei with EMUI 13+ Protected content can be blocked (Netflix, Disney)+). To get around the restriction, enable the projection settings mode for games instead of for media.

2. Broadcast via Google Cast (Chromecast)

3. Wired connection via HDMI (minimum delays)

For those who want maximum stability (for example, for games or conferences), the best option is a wired connection via HDMI. On Huawei, this will require a USB-C → HDMI adapter (with DisplayPort Alt Mode support), Suitable for models with a USB 3.1 or Thunderbolt port (for example, Mate 60 Pro, Pura 70).
