If you want a bigger and better viewing experience of your tablet screen, you can view it in LCD or LED TV via HDMI connection. Like me, I usually use my tablet (my PLDT Telpad) when we want to have a videoke or karaoke craze in our house. I search lots and lots of latest karaoke videos in youtube in my PLDT telpad (tablet). My telpad is connected to the internet through wifi. To have a bigger and better viewing experience, I connect my PLDT telpad (tablet) to my 48-inch LCD TV. You may ask how do I connect my telpad (tablet) to the LCD/LED TV?
