Info: will the Galaxy SIII/Note II MHL cable work for the S4?

Mobile high-definition link (MHL) will allow you to plug an HDMI cable into your Galaxy S4 to transfer high quality video and audio. Luckily you don't have to worry about cable compatibility like users did between the SII and SIII. The pinouts (11 pins) for the SIII, Note II and S4 are the same.

However, the S4 supports MHL 2.0, which means you don't need to plug in a separate charger into the adapter cable (900 mAh of power to keep the phone charged is provided from the connected tuner or TV), and you also get faster, full 1080p transfer. So if you don't mind plugging in a charger, or you TV/tuner doesn't support MHL 2.0, you can still use the S3 cable, which is currently $20: Amazon.com: Samsung Adapter Hdmi Epl 3Fhu For Galaxy SIII: Cell Phones & Accessories

or if you have MHL 2.0 on your TV/Tuner you can get the new cable for the S4, which is around $40: Amazon.com: Samsung ET-H10FAUWESTA Micro USB to HDMI 1080P HDTV Adapter Cable for Samsung Galaxy S3/S4 and Note 2 - Retail Packaging - White: Cell Phones & Accessories
(note that this adapter still has a micro-USB port so it can also be used with devices that don't have MHL)
