Why android phones has better features and some Windows no? I am comparing the Samsung galaxy prime, and the Lumia 830 both being exactly the same why can offer Miracast and the Lumia 830 not if are the same processor and components? Also I'm wondering why Windows phone is a bit mediocre if we compare with Symbian belle which has more, functions than Windows phone , just wondering why Microsoft don't asked to Nokia by help in create the successor of Windows, mobile 6

Well, if my L530 doesn't support Miracast, but my L630 does, can pretty well assume that the L830 does support it. Are you sure you're not talking about DLNA, or Chromecast,

Well, as I said. My $40 Lumia 630 projects just fine to my $30 Actiontec Screenbeam Mini, which is the same form factor as MS' $80 Miracast Dongle. This was before W10M TP, when it was just WP8.1. I've done that numerous times at peoples' houses for movies and what not.

Yes, the 830 supports Miracast, as does the 635. I've done it with both.

It's called, "Project My Screen", and it's right there in the settings. Have you even tried it?
