Google launches its affordable Chromecast with Google TV (HD)
Google announced the release of the new affordable Chromecast with Google TV (HD) in India, aimed at helping more people navigate entertainment choices, bringing together leading local and global media into one convenient interface. With the Google TV experience, people can easily find movies, shows, and more from their apps and subscriptions, all in one place. Starting, Chromecast with Google TV (HD) is available in India at an MSRP of ₹4,499 on Flipkart (at an offer price of ₹4,199 during the Big Billion Day Sale) and will be coming soon to other retail outlets.
The new Chromecast with Google TV (HD) comes in a compact and thin design, and is packed with more capabilities and intelligence to give people an outstanding viewing experience. It neatly plugs into the TV’s HDMI port and tucks behind the screen. The new Chromecast with Google TV (HD) offers high-definition streaming with 1080p HDR, and with software adjustments made by Google behind the scenes, users can enjoy a smooth and snappy experience no matter what TV they are watching on.
Available in the classic Snow color, the all-new Chromecast with Google TV (HD) also comes with a voice remote that is comfortable to hold and easy to use. It has a dedicated Google Assistant button that can help users find something to watch, answer everyday questions like ‘What’s the weather today?’or play their favorite artist on YouTube Music, all with their voice. With Google Assistant, people also get the option to control their smart home lights to set the mood or catch a live view of their front door on the big screen via their Nest Cam. The new remote comes with dedicated buttons for popular streaming services including YouTube and Netflix, to give users instant access to the content they love, with no need to juggle multiple remotes thanks to its programmable buttons for power, volume, and input.
Users have access to 10000+ apps and the ability to browse their favourite movies and TV shows sorted and optimised for what they like – simply ask Google Assistant to see results from apps like Apple TV, Disney+ Hotstar, MX Player, Netflix, Prime Video, Voot, YouTube, and Zee5, with more coming. And of course, users will still have access to their favorite Chromecast features like casting from their phone, sharing their Google Photos to their TV, and casting their Google Meet video calls to TV so they can join the team meeting or lecture from the comfort of their couch.
