- A new, powerful player, a worthy successor to the Chromecast series, which is generally more of an Android TV set-top box. Support for 4K, support for new codecs, it is possible to install applications adapted for Android TV directly from the store, which solves the problem with some cinemas that do not have Google Cast support, the remote control is included. There is support for WiFI AC (5GHz), Bluetotoh, you can connect not only the remote control but also joysticks and even play compatible games
- If earlier Chromecast was an independent device, plugged it into the network, connected it to the Internet and use it, now you need to make a Google account. Starts slower than earlier devices, requires plugging into an outlet. uses 1.5A current, it is no longer possible to power from the TV. Soft - due to the fact that the product is not sharpened for the 2022 market, it is offered mainly foreign. There are also 2022 services, but not all applications, even officially sharpened for Android TV, are launched, although Kinopoisk works fine. I really didn’t like how YouTube now works with the device, instead of “thrown a video from a smartphone, it plays and after that the standby mode” the device lives its own life, stubbornly turns on auto-play and plays random videos.
