Streaming movies. What TV can I purchase to stream movies only using my Samsung Galaxy 6 as Wifi and internet. I have Sprint service.

Any newer model Smart TV should work. Samsung's are my favorite, but I've also done it on a Sony Bravia.

Turn on the TV, select Input, then select Screen Mirroring.

Over on your phone, turn WiFi off (temporarily). Then swipe down from the top to bring up Quick Links and select Screen Mirror. Give it a minute to scan for and find the TV. When it does, you'll get a pop-up. Select your TV. Your phone screen will be shown on the TV (as well as the phone).

You can now back and flip your WiFi back on.
