How To Airplay Mac / MacBook To Sony Smart TV

If you own a Mac or MacBook and a Sony Smart TV, you can easily mirror your laptop’s screen or stream videos, music, and photos using Apple’s AirPlay feature. This allows you to enjoy your favorite content on a bigger screen without the need for HDMI cables.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about how to AirPlay from your iPhone, Mac or MacBook to a Sony Smart TV.

AirPlay is Apple’s wireless streaming technology that lets you share videos, photos, music, and your screen from an Apple device to a compatible TV or speaker. Many modern Sony Smart TVs come with Apple AirPlay 2 built-in, making it simple to connect your Mac or MacBook.

Before setting up, make sure you have a Sony Smart TV that supports AirPlay 2 (most 2019 and newer models), an iPhone, Mac or MacBook running macOS Mojave (10.14.5) or later. Also, you need to have a Wi-Fi connection – both the Mac and Sony Smart TV must be connected to the same network.
