Mirroring with Apple devices (iPhone, MacBook) is possible with this model via AirPlay, provided the TV supports AirPlay or a corresponding app is installed. For MacBooks, the TCL TV can be used as a second screen if both devices are in the same Wi-Fi network. With iPhones, mirroring also works via AirPlay or third-party apps if AirPlay is not natively supported.
For Windows laptops, mirroring is usually possible via Miracast or HDMI cable, as Windows supports Miracast by default. Chromebooks usually use Chromecast for casting, which also works with TCL Google TVs if Chromecast or corresponding apps are available.
As the 85C655 model is a QLED TV from TCL with Google TV, it does not natively support AirPlay, but there are workarounds with apps to mirror Apple devices. Casting via Wi-Fi or HDMI is possible for Windows and Chromebook, but there is no native Apple AirPlay support.
To summarise: - Apple devices: Mirroring via AirPlay or third-party apps possible if TV supports AirPlay or app is installed. - Windows laptops: Mirroring via Miracast or HDMI cable possible. - Chromebooks: Casting via Chromecast or compatible apps possible. - 85C655 (Google TV) does not support AirPlay natively, but workarounds are available.
Different information on sales portals may therefore be due to different firmware versions or supported apps. For the best compatibility, we recommend checking the current firmware and installing apps from the Google Play Store if necessary.
