The editors didn't like

  • Compatible apps relatively limited at present
  • Mirroring function limited to relaying Chrome browser content
  • Is yet to maximise its potential
  • Limited to compatible apps
  • On July 24th 2014
  • Google announced Chromecast
  • Its new multimedia-streaming technology. Billed as Google's answer to Apple TV
  • This dongle-sized TV stick in fact aims to offer so much more. Si
  • As a fellow editor pointed out in our early hands on review
  • We're still looking for a native way to stream Amazon Instant Video from a phone or tablet to a Chromecast
  • Or mirror iOS devices to the TV with it. It's not wise to hold your breath for either
  • No wired internet
  • Interface needs work
  • Not enough services are supported yet and screen-mirroring sucks for video. The lack of a dedicated remote also means you always need a smartphone or tablet nearby
  • Plus for £20 less
  • You can get a re-badged Roku box from Now TV that includes iPlayer
  • Search needs improvement
  • More apps needed
  • Few compatible apps
  • Slightly untidy USB power
  • Can't cast local videos on smartphones
  • Tablets
  • Requires companion device
  • Fairly limited in its current form
  • Limited native support currently
  • HDMI limis older TV compatibility
  • Not many supported apps yet
  • Could do with more apps
  • No remote control
  • Still some apps missing
  • No UI or physical remote

  • Enkelt oppsett, enkel i bruk, flink på YouTube og Netflix, tidvis flink på fanespelling, lav pris, støtte for Android, iOS, Windows og Mac.
  • Fanespeiling ikke alltid en suksess, støtter fortsatt få tjenester, dårlig støtte for lokalt innhold

  Published: 2014-01-19, Author: Stein , review by: tu.no

  • Enkel både å sette opp og bruke, God bildekvalitet fra Netflix, Bitteliten og enkel å skjule
  • Litt blandede erfaringer med USBstrøm, Nærmest ubrukelig fanespeiling fra Google Chrome, Relativt få støttede apper og nettsteder
  • Smarttelefonen eller nettbrettet kan brukes til andre ting mens du spiller av på Chromecast. Selve streamingen gjøres av dingsen selv. Mange har i dag noe av den samme funksjonaliteten som Chromecast leverer direkte i smart-TV-en sin, med både Netfl...

  • Tænder og slukker automatisk dit TV, så du kan undvære TV'ets fjernbetjening, Fjernbetjening gør betjening og navigation let, Brugerfladen er simpel og kan let styres og forstås af alle, Altid forbundet til TV'et. Man skal ikke først forbinde til det, Det
  • Søgning af indhold er langsom og frustrerende, Prisen. Koster over det dobbelte af Chromecast Ultra, Kan kun tænde men ikke slukke dit TV (hvis HDMI-CEC er slået til), Styringen kan være svær at forstå for nogle, Kræver en telefon eller tablet til at styr
