What's Google Chromecast?
Stream media to your TV
With the Chromecast, it's very easy to play video and music on your TV. The Chromecast is ideal for TVs that aren't smart TVs. It can also be used as an upgrade for your smart TV. Unlike the Chromecast, TV smart platforms often work very slowly and require a separate remote. The Chromecast lets you use your PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone as a remote.
