Recently, Google officially launched the second generation of Chromecast TV sticks, which are more stable and easy to use, but the price is still the same.
Interested consumers can now order through the Google online store, the price of the new Chromecast TV stick is still 35 US dollars (about 222 yuan), but the current market landscape in this area is very different than when the previous generation of products launched .
Today, the second generation of Chromecast will face the same powerful new Apple TV and the new Amazon Fire TV competition. In addition, HDMI streaming devices such as Roku Streaming Stick and Amazon Fire Stick also provide users with more choices. The Roku 4K set-top box will also be launched someday.
The first generation of Chromecast accumulated more than 20 million sales. These users clicked the "projection" button 1.5 billion times to cast their movie, TV and application content on their mobile phones to the big screen TV. With the second generation of Chromecast, how should this part of the user decide? Let us find the answer below.
design
The second-generation Chromecast has no change in projected content compared to its predecessor, and the main change is in product appearance.
First of all, the product uses the Chrome browser logo on the surface, and there is an extended HDMI connection cable. The disc shape is obviously different from that of the previous U disk.
In the case of insufficient space near the HDMI port on the back of the TV, the first-generation Chromecast is difficult to insert directly. Therefore, the second-generation Chromecast directly provides an HDMI extension cable to solve this problem.
In addition, the second-generation Chromecast also offers lemon, yellow, coral and black colors.
Of course, providing more color choices is by no means a spur of Google. The second-generation Chromecast is designed to meet the needs of consumers on the road. If used with the company's new Chromecast Audio, different colors are more beneficial. User-specific.
The back of the Chromecast is magnetic and it's easy to absorb on the TV. This is a very thoughtful design.
Features
The new Chromecast has a built-in Wi-Fi antenna that supports the latest 802.11ac and 5Ghz bands.
Adequate 2.4GHz / 5Ghz dual-band option, plus the built-in HDMI extension cable, the second generation of Chromecast can be quickly put into work, reduce waiting time to avoid the user's viewing mood weakened.
The product feels a bit heavy on the palm of your hand, but it's actually only 39.1g, and it doesn't matter if it is suspended behind the TV.
The second generation of Chromecast is consistent with the device types supported by previous generations of products, including Android smartphones and tablets, iPhones, iPads, Windows, Chromebooks and even Mac devices.
Unfortunately, the user still cannot project the screen content of all iPhones or iPads to the TV. Full mapping is limited to Android devices and Chrome browser apps, but this is by no means a Google issue.
Google has not yet designed a special remote controller for the second-generation Chromecast, which also means that users need to initiate streaming operations through a smartphone, tablet or computer.
application
Google announced that it will add more service content for Chromecast, including support for applications such as Spotify, YouTube, and Google Photo.
Although there is no central control interface available for the main screen, Google has designed an application that can collect all kinds of exciting content from the streaming device and present it to the user.
Chromecast can also project the game application screen, so that family and friends can join multiplayer games through their own devices, but Google has not yet launched Chromecast compatible gamepad plans.
advantage
Provides HDMI extension; more aesthetic design; more applications to choose from; the same low price.
Shortcomings
Does not support Amazon Instant Video; does not display the central control interface on the TV; no remote control.
in conclusion
Although the second generation of Chromecast has undergone significant changes in appearance, the application and basic specifications are basically the same as those of the previous generation. However, the new product offers better wireless connectivity and maintains a lower price in line with previous generations.
