First Look: Google’s new Chromecast checks lots of the right boxes

The latest Chromecast debuts alongside the new Google TV interface. The streamer comes with 4K, Dolby Vision and loads of apps for a reasonable price. After a day of testing, Google TV offers solid organization but still doesn’t have a handle on what I want to watch.

    I’m wondering how the IR transmitter is working, i.e. if it’s able to switch on the TV and how

    So it wont run all the apps like when you use an android box? Does it have a Chrome browser? I mean Firestick has Silk and apps so it must be very similar.

    For all you with old big monitors without a 3.5mm jack, the new Chromecast has Bluetooth audio pairing.
