TheGoogle Chromecastis finally getting updated nine years after it first launched. The new model, which follows the design cues of theChromecast with Google TV4K model, comes with the remote control included, too.

Googleannounced the new Chromecast earlier today, after a series of leaks left little to the imagination of their users.

The new model is a cheaper offering than the 4K model, priced at $30 / £35 / AU$59. That’s a lot of TV for not a lot of cash, particularly factoring in the HD quality picture.

Unlike the 4K model, the Chromecast HD only comes in one colour: Snow. That’s hardly game-changing, though, and if you’re set on having Sunrise or Sky, the 4K option still carries them.

Chromecast with Google TV (HD): key features

Chromecast enables you to stream online services to your TV. There are over 10,000 apps to choose from withGoogle TV, including popular favourites likeNetflix,Disney PlusandApple TV.

The inclusion of Google TV enables a much more interactive experience with the Chromecast. Different users can set up their own profiles and get specific recommendations based on their own viewing habits. This also enables simple and effective parental controls, to limit the content available to children.

The inclusion of the remote with this model takes that one step further. Google Assistant is built into the remote, with a dedicated button that allows you to ask for what you want, rather than searching for it. You can even ask questions, like you would with any smart assistant, through your remote control.
