The easiest way to connect your Chromebook is with an HDMI cable. If that’s not an option, there are also adapters and cables that allow you to use other ports. Here’s what you need, and how to do it:
What You Need
You will need:
- A Chromebook with an HDMI port. All of the ones we’ve reviewed here have one, but you may want to double-check before buying.
- An HDMI cable that connects from your Chromebook’s HDMI port to the TV’s HDMI port. Make sure it’s compatible with both devices!
- A TV with an HDMI port (obviously). Some older TVs won’t have this option, so if you’re using one to connect your Chromebook, consider upgrading or getting a new television before proceeding. If this isn’t possible for whatever reason, there are other options available in our next section below…
Connecting a Chromebook to a TV
There are a lot of options for how to connect your Chromebook to a TV, but the most common method is HDMI. If you only have one USB port on your laptop, it can be difficult or impossible to use that method. In this case, there are other options:
- Display Port
- VGA (analog)
- Ethernet cable or WiFi hotspot connection
If You Don’t Have an HDMI Port
- HDMI-to-Micro USB Cable
If you don’t have an HDMI port on your TV, but your Chromebook does have a Micro USB port, then you can use this cable to connect them together. The cable will send the video signal from your laptop to the big screen via the Chromecast device.
- HDMI-to-USB C Adapter
The same is true for a Chromebook with only a USB C port—you’ll need an adapter in order to connect it to a standard HDMI plug on your TV. Again, this will allow you to stream content from your laptop onto the big screen using Chromecast or another streaming device like Apple TV or Roku.
- VGA (Video Graphics Array) Adapter
This adapter uses an old technology called VGA that hasn’t been used much since around 2010 when most monitors started coming with HDMI ports instead of VGA ones; however, there are still some people out there who prefer not having wires going across their room so they can keep everything nice and neat behind closed doors!
Other Ways to Connect a Chromebook Without HDMI
While HDMI is the most common way to connect an external display, your Chromebook also supports other options.
- USB-C to HDMI Adapter
- USB-C to HDMI Cable
- USB-C to VGA Adapter
- USB-C to VGA Cable
- DisplayPort Adapter (DisplayPort or Mini DisplayPort)
A Chromebook can be connected to tv without HDMI
Note: This guide assumes that your TV has an HDMI input port. If it doesn’t, you can still connect the Chromebook to your TV via composite or RCA cables.
- Open up the Google app and search for “Google Cast” in the search bar at the top of your screen. Click on “Cast” once it appears on the screen after typing in “Google Cast” into the search bar at the top of your screen every time you want to cast content, go ahead and click on it again (or press Ctrl + C).
