It’s a conventional set-top-box that will reportedly replace the Chromecast with Google TV.
Googlehas been linked with a new Chromecaststreaming devicefor some time, but it seems that it’s decided to head in another direction instead. In fact, it’s returning to an old favourite, if a new report turns out to be accurate.
A new set-top-box has been revealed in leaked images, with a suggestion that the brand is planning to ditch the dongle form factor entirely.
A redesigned remote is also shown in the images, which retains the circular control dial that’s also found on the version with the existing Chromecast with Google TV, but switches the Google Assistant button for a home button.
There are additional buttons too, for volume and a less-specific microphone button for voice control. The YouTube andNetflixbuttons remain though.

A new era for Google TV?
The box is said to continue with Google TV (rather than revert toAndroidTV, like theNvidia Shield), but the Chromecast name is said to be gone forever.
Not much else is known about the Google TV Streamer at present – whether it supports 4K HDR or will stick to HD. We suspect it’ll be the latter, to directly compete with theApple TV4K box that has experienced some huge improvements in recent times.
