The Chromecast with Google TV isn't just the newest Chromecast, it completely changes what a Chromecast IS. But is it good enough to take on an Android TV box like the Nvidia SHIELD TV?

This... I hate the Ridge wallet so much... It's fascinating how it's actually a condescending product, they cater to and abuse ignorant people. If you want that type of wallet for some reason, you buy the OG version off of Alibaba for a fraction of the price (yes, the Ridge is a clone). The cost of production is almost certainly under ten dollars, you're paying for millions of dollars worth of marketing instead of an actual wallet. It's actually scammy, I can't understand why Linus would support it.

Considering Chromecasts are the only good option for streaming Oculus Quests, I would have really appreciated if you tested the casting performance on the new Google TV Chromecast, to see if it's higher hardware gives better picture quality and response rate. Especially since the third rev Chromecast is over 2 years old now and couldn't handle 4K, that extra hardware likely makes a difference.
@deoxal7947 2 жыл бұрын
I have this one and it can't even receive video from sources other than KZfaq without a ton of lag. Casting my phone's display is actually slightly better but still a lot of lag. I can't recommend this to anyone unless they just want to stream netflix etc but this has no benefit over a roku or firestick then. Going to try with an ethernet adapter because I suspect the issue is with upload bandwidth rather than download within the local network. Only problem is I don't know if my phone and chromecast will even see each other as ethernet devices.

I live in Canada and Google TV was the only device that somehow allowed me to sign up AND download HBO Max. I had to use a credit card for purchase of membership but that's it. It has access to almost every app and the interface is simple and clean. Its not the fastest and sometimes is a bit laggy in menu but those minor complaints are heavily outweighed by its functionality. I bought a Nvidia Shield Pro and it could not access HBO Max even with VPN. So I've officially switched to this one and its been pretty reliable. For 50 bucks I've just bought one for every TV in the house.

I finally got a Stadia Premier Edition with the purchase of Cyberpunk and I have to say, I honestly feel spoiled by Stadia now. Games like The Division 2 run EXTREMELY faster and smoother than it ever did on my XBox, not to mention, the graphics looks incredible! I even played the game side by side with my Xbox to see the differences and they were clearly showing. I was officially convinced to purchase another month of Stadia, including a month of Ubisoft+ to give me more of a variety of games to play. Every game I played on Stadia has ran the way you expect a game to run, but better than it would run on a console. Stadia really shows that streaming is the future for gaming. Yes, the first year for Stadia has been bad, I also was one of the people that talked down on Stadia, but now that I moved out and got better internet, Stadia works like a charm! I’m hooked and I’m going to be staying with Stadia.

I still think that it sucks that they killed the Chromecast Audio. Those were a great idea.

It isn't like my modern 4k TV was lacking that ability to begin with, I've been avidly testing geforce now, luna & stadia over the past few weeks and Stadia is the best when it comes to quality , latency and no hiccups in animations rendering etc... Not to mention GeForce Now only lets me game for an hour at a time and thats not even enough time to get through a level on most modern single player titles if youre trying to explore and their paid packages don't even state specific amount of hours you'll get to play. I havent tried shield but then again they aren't handing it to me for free I talked mad shit on Stadia but if you have a good connection the quality is there in a way it simply isn't with other streaming services in its class.
