Gadget Watch: Chromecast thumb-drive delivers mobile content to the TV Gadget Watch Gadget Master

2013/07/29

Overshadowed by the announcement of Android 4.3 and a new Asus Nexus tablet, the thumb-drive-sized Chromecast was also unveiled in San Francisco by Google.

This is a HDMI dongle for transmitting web video and other digital content to TVs. For example? Sharing photos on a big screen, streaming a movie, etc.

It will work with the likes of Netflix, YouTube, Google Play Movies & TV, and Google Play Music, with more apps – like Pandora – coming soon, it is promised.

On the Android Official Blog, the company writes:

In a world of ubiquitous computing, life would be a lot simpler if we didn’t have to learn new behaviours and interfaces each time we switched screens – if we could have one consistent, intuitive experience no matter where we are or what we’re doing. Today, with the launch of Chromecast and the new Nexus 7 tablet, it’s even more effortless to enjoy content you care about – whether it’s video, music, movies, games – wherever you are, across your devices. To help make it easy to bring your favourite online entertainment to the biggest screen in your house – the TV – we’re introducing Chromecast.

Once your Chromecast is set up, you can use your phone, tablet or laptop to browse and cast content to your TV, play and pause, control the volume, and more. But unlike other streaming solutions, you can still multitask – send emails or surf the web – while enjoying what’s on the TV screen. It works across platforms – Android tablets and smartphones, iPhones, iPads, Chrome for Mac and Windows (more to come), so your personal device is also now your remote control.

It is priced at $35, but with no word yet on UK or European pricing. It is available on Amazon.co.uk – as an “Eartly Adopter Listing” – for £99.
