Google recently announced there new device called the 'Chrome Cast'. This is a tiny little device is a shape of a dongle which connects to your HDTV via. HDMI port. This is basically a type of media streaming device which is just incredible in its own hype.
Chrome Cast lets you play YouTube, Netflix videos direct from your mobile or tablet or laptop to your HDTV. You just have to plugin it to your TV's HDMI port and connect it to the Wi-Fi network to which your android or iOS or windows or Mac device is connected. When you have done this go to any of the apps that support Chrome Cast (currently YouTube, Netflix, Chrome, Google Play Music)and play some media or browse some content, while doing this you will get a new cast icon which you have to press and after doing that the media will automatically be displayed on the TV. While displaying the content you can also do any other activities on your device as the Chrome Cast is directly streaming the content itself through the internet. In this case the device serves as a remote control. You can play videos through YouTube and Netflix, play music through Google Play Music and display your web content through Chrome browser. Google have released SDK for developers so that they can add the cast functionally to there apps.
Chrome Cast has just much more interesting points to be excited about. It is very easy to use, light and portable to carry. The Chrome Cast comes in a box which contains a USB data cable and a adapter for charging, an HDMI extender and some manuals to guide you. If you buy the Chrome Cast then you also get Netflix subscription free for 3 months.
The price of Chrome Cast is just 35$ which is very less for such an incredible device. My suggestion to you is that just buy this device. It is an awesome gadget. Don't consider it as an old school media streaming device, it is very capable device which will not disappoint you and will cost you only 35$.
