Hi @MIKEY007 

 

We need the full model number of your TV (it will start with KD or XR) to check to see if it includes Apple Homekit and AirPlay2 which is required to mirror your iPhone.

Hi @MIKEY007 

 

If you have a look at the specifications of your KD-43X72K then you will see that it does not come with Apple HomeKit so it is restricted to Airplay (audio only).

However you may find an App in the Play Store that may give you screen mirroring. My TVs have Apple HomeKit so I cannot recommend anything. From past experiences they usually don’t work very well. A better solution would be to add an Apple TV box (new or 2nd hand).

Hey MIKEY007, mirroring won't work as the other users confirmed, but here's an alternative, casting compatible apps might work:
