The editors liked

  • I've said it once
  • And I'll say it 100 more
  • But the new wireless antenna is nothing short of astounding. It creates a near seamless streaming environment with less lag and less buffering time than almost anything – even full size set-top boxes – on the m
  • 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
  • Inexpensive
  • Improved design
  • Streams content from Netflix
  • HBO Now and other popular apps from your mobile device

  • Looks nice
  • Faster
  • Better Looking Design
  • Awesome New Chromecast App
  • Did We Mention It Is A LOT FASTER
  • New design fits any port

The editors didn't like

  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • No native Amazon Instant Video
  • No remote control
  • Not many games
  • Not completely catch-up TV compatible
  • Still waiting on some functionality
  • Some apps and games are yet to catch up
  • It Can't Do Your Tax Return -- That's Literally About It
  • Search could use a bit of work
  • Still can't control playback from main app
  • What's On could stand some more personalization
  • Many features not active in the UK
  • Gaming is weak currently

  • Abstract:  Vores hverdag bliver hver eneste dag mere og mere digitaliseret. Det er svært at forudsige, hvordan vores verden ser ud om bare 10 år. Engang skulle du tænde for tv-avisen kl. 18.00 for at få dagens nyheder eller læse dagens avis. I dag kan du på hvilket...

  • Abstract:  Når fejlen rammer kan der opleves både langsom netforbindelse og – i mere sjældne tilfælde – at routeren midlertidigt opleves helt utilgængelig.Fejlen ligger angiveligt i en kombination af de apps der ‘caster' til Chromecast (Android OS og apps) og så sel...

  • Abstract:  I disse sammenhænge kom hele fænomenet bare til at hedde 'Google Cast'.Men nu bliver det lavet om igen. Google går tilbage til Chromecast-navnet i en række sammenhænge.Når du fremover ser enheder, der er er med i Googles økosystem, står der ”Chromecast bu...

  • Abstract:  Den første Chromecast var og er stadig et fremragende produkt. Den var billig, intuitiv, stabil, utrolig brugervenlig og let at sætte op. Men hvad har Google så gjort for at gøre den nye Chromecast til et endnu bedre produkt, og kan det samtidig retfærdig...

  • Stadig en "streaming"enhed som er let at bruge, Prisen gør den til en meget attraktiv streamingløsning, De fleste danske tjenester understøttes, Mere avancerede apps såsom PLEX fungerer også.
  • Den nye Chromecast kan ikke meget nyt i forhold til den gamle model, Ingen 4Kstreaming (en fair mangel til prisen, men ikke desto mindre et minus for nogle)

  • Så billig, at man sagtens kan købe flere. Nem installation og brug. Blokerer ikke længere andre HDMI-porte
  • Er helt afhængig af telefon eller tablet som fjernbetjening. Begrænsede muligheder i forhold til rigtige medieafspillere
  • For dem, der ikke er parat til at investere i en mere kompetent medieafspiller, er Chromecast et tillokkende alternativ. Hvis alt, hvad man har brug for, er at kunne se de samme ting på skærmen, som man gør på sin tablet, så fungerer den fint. Og den er...

  • Billig, Understøtter mange tjenester, Forbedret WiFi, Android & iOS support, Ny app (fungerer ikke i DK endnu)
  • Skærmspejling stadig ikke godt, Ingen 50Hz & 24Hz understøttelse, Ingen VP9 (& HEVC) understøttelse, Meget få ændringer (Fast Play virker ikke endnu)

  • Den nye Chromecast er en naturlig evolution og ikke nogen revolution. Der er fortsat tale om en 1080p maks streamingenhed og endnu ikke 4K. Det væsentligste nyhed er uden tvivl det hurtigere trådløse netværk, som giver en bedre oplevelse både i hastighed...

  • Abstract:  Chromecast nigdy nie był jakoś szczególnie pożądanym przeze mnie urzadzeniem. Mam telewizor ze wsparciem dla Miracasta, a w razie potrzeby mogę też wykorzystać do streamingu Xboksa. Mimo to druga generacja tego gadżetu oczarowała mnie na tyle, że w końcu...
