Google Chromecast 2020 review: What we always wanted

Google's history with making a streaming device with a remote and on-screen interface has been rocky at best. Did they get it right this time?

Affordable ; Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support ; Slick UI ; Responsive ; Integrated Google Assistant

Dolby Vision always on by default ; Recommendation algorithm still learning

Chromecast with Google TV review: A step forward for streaming

Chromecast with Google TV review: It reduces app overload, but still has a few blind spots.

Unified streaming guide means less digging through apps ; Google Assistant makes finding and sorting through content easier ; Neat features like casting, Google Photos wallpaper, and multi-room audio

Guide integration varies by app ; No support for multiple profiles ; Still some missing apps, including Apple TV+

The underlying Android TV platform still has a few weak points as well, though it feels considerably more polished .

Chromecast with Google TV Review: Smart(er) TV

Google's new Chromecast is out and if you're embedded in Google's ecosytem this is the smart TV device for you.

Comes with a remote ; Smart home screen ; Reasonable price

Canadian support is limited ; Volume rocker a little small ; No Stadia yet

Only time will tell if this content-packed home screen is going to be a major improvement over Roku or Apple's grid of apps
