Can smartphones play on a monitor

Hello,
can a smartphone be connected to a monitor in order to play video, audio, text and photographs.

You can connect it to your computer via USB, and then load the media from there?

theres a few discussions on this around the web. heres one i found quick:

though as spykerwolf suggested, using the phone as a disk drive and loading the media through windows/other os would be the easiest and most painfree way to go about it.

I know that certain phones are able to connect to tvs etc via usb, such as:

The sensation can stream wirelessly so you can watch films on pc etc, but just for ease of use etc i would go with what spykerwolf suggests, and mount your phone to a pc and transfer whatever you want.

there are many phones that can connect via hdmi...and other that can connect via composite cable....and others that uses wifi for DLNA( require a tv with wifi)
