Few Supported Apps At The Moment, Minimal Features
Our time with the Google Chromecast was mostly trouble-free. The Chromecast app for Android devices installed in seconds and sending YouTube videos up to the Chromecast “just worked”. Once the Chromecast is configured, all that's required to send videos u...
Dead simple setup and interface, Great streaming quality with supported apps, The price makes it an impulse buy you won’t regret
Limited content partners at launch, Tab casting is not ready for primetime
At Google’s recent brunch everyone was anticipating the new Nexus 7 and Android 4.3, but Google surprised everybody with Chromecast. It arguably stole the show, and rightfully so. Nothing against Asus’s latest Nexus (it’s wonderful, and makes a great c...

The biggest benefit of the Google Chromecast is its price. Google has done everything right pricing it at US$ 35 only which makes the purchase a now-brainer. No wonder that the Chromecast sold out the night it was annouced. But is it worth the 35 bucks? W...
The Chromecast is pretty darn limited right now, but we knew that going into our purchase. Plus, at $35 it's a great option for streaming media that we can easily bring on business trips. The device itself takes up far less room than any other streaming b...

Dead useful for a number of things: Seeing as it's just a small HDMI dongle that can fit in the palm of your hand, you wouldn't expect the Chromecast to do a whole lot. But when it comes to viewing content on a bigger screen, the Chromecast is the easiest
Lack of app support: This is the biggest problem the Chromecast currently faces. It's a great device, but there are only about four or five apps that currently support it. At this point, you're limited to Netflix, YouTube, Play Music, Play Movies and TV.
The Chromecast is, simply put, the most useful living room accessory to date. It gives you tremendous power in an extremely compact package. While it's not quite perfect, it excels at certain things that are both useful and functional. Further support wil...
Abstract: Rumors about Chrome OS running on a tiny HDMI stick started leaking out a few months ago, but we were all wrong about what it was going to be. The Chromecast is not a shrunken down Chromebox – it's not even really a Chrome OS device in the strictest se...
Abstract: Google Chrome Cast is an east and simple way to move media content from your smartphone, tablet or even desktop PC to your HDTV . With Chromecast , you can easily enjoy your favorite online entertainment on your HDTV —movies, TV shows, music, and more fro...
Abstract: Last week, Google surprised almost everyone with the announcement of the HDMI-streaming dongle: the Chromecast. Mostly a surprise due to the company's current efforts to merge the web with your TV with Google TV. They haven't been selling well. T...
Google TV stagnated. The Nexus Q was (sensibly) axed before it had a proper launch. With the Chromecast, though, it’s hard not to be swayed. Yes, only a few native apps have Cast options yet, but the Chromecast is just $35. True, the browser integrati...
The ChromeCast is a great device at $35. While the ChromeCast does not deliver all the same features as the Apple TV and there are a multitude of connected consoles and boxes, the ChromeCast is a great alternative.This is a good first streaming device for...
