Inexpensive, improved design, streams content from Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, HBO Now and other popular apps from your mobile device, 5GHz Wi-Fi compatibility, updated Chromecast app with universal search
Still no interface or dedicated remote (if that bothers you), support for 1080p rather than 4K, requires an Android or iOS device for setup, and can only stream Amazon videos from a PC
The new Chromecast is an easy way to get content to your TV via your phone, tablet or PC without any hassle. Whether you want to playback from apps, mirror browser tabs (or local media playback within), or even play split-screen games - Chromecast 2...
Starting with the design of the New Chromecast we have a device which is a definite improvement over the older version. It does look nicer overall however from a functional point of view...
New design fits any port, Slightly faster load speeds, New app is a huge improvement, Cross-platform search at this price is impressive
Search could use a bit of work, Still can't control playback from main app, What's On could stand some more personalization
In the end, the new design features are a step up, but not enough to make us trade in our old Chromecast — especially considering all of our favorite new features work just fine on the old version. But for those who still haven't checked out a Chromecas...
My 2011 Sony TV works a treat, but its version of BBC iPlayer is no longer up to snuff and fares very poorly in comparison with the mobile app versions: it doesn't display new content as quickly, buffers far more often than the apps do, and the picture qu...
The Google Chromecast is a dirt-cheap wireless video dongle that streams Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, Pandora, HBO Now and thousands of other apps and games to your TV using an Android or Apple phone or tablet, or a PC, as the controller. Its small size hid
The lack of a dedicated remote means you always need a smartphone, tablet or PC nearby to use it. Slightly more expensive boxes and sticks, with their physical remotes, tactile buttons and onscreen displays, are more convenient to use. The only way to wat
The innovative Chromecast might be the ultimate living-room accessory for your phone or tablet, but more traditional streaming devices deliver a better streaming experience...
Faster operation, Cleaner, more refined picture, Intuitive, user-friendly app, More content, Same price,
Not completely catch-up TV compatible,
The new Chromecast is quite the upgrade. It's taken the winning recipe of neat, simple and efficient streaming and refined the technique in almost every way, from build to use to performance.So what's the damage for this new-and-improved discus? That's th...
The new Chromecast app is out already, and as far as we know, all of its new features work with the old Chromecast. That means that – aside from the new design and Wi-Fi – the two Chromecasts are basically the same. Which means existing owners shouldn't r...

The beauty of the Chromecast is in its simplicity and low cost. It does not attempt to provide you with a front end or complicated abilities but leaves that to your device. This means that if you can use the controlling device you can use the Chromecast...

Abstract: It's here: the Google Chromecast streaming stick lands with loads of content already available for your lounge entertainment.Google Chromecast is one of many "streaming stick" devices, but likely to be the one you've heard about before. It brings home the...
Good design, Smooth streaming experience, Easy to set up and use, Well designed app and UI
Mirroring smartphone display can get buggy for games and some apps
At Rs. 3,399, the Chromecast 2 is a good buy, as long as you're streaming a lot of content from your smartphone. The performance is better than its predecessor, and it can turn your dumb old TV into a smarter one. You may not want to go back to watching t...
