Google seems to have a new Chromecast in the works with Google TV on it. Google TV is in a sense Google’s TV operating system and it’s on previous Chromecasts as well.
Google TV
Google TV is like an operating system for your television. Putting this on a Chromecast will show you an easy-to-use menu on your television. It actually works much like the EMUI shell on Android, for example: Google TV is a shell on Android TV.
It’s really a Google experience: you can enable the Google Assistant, or find out which movies and series are popular via Google Search. In addition, you can of course do what the Chromecast is mainly made for: stream content from your phone or tablet to your television screen. You can recognize a Chromecast option by a square with a kind of oblique WiFi bends in it. Make sure your phone is on the same WiFi channel as the Chromecast.
Project Boreal
So now it seems that a new Chromecast is in the works. 9to5Google writes that Google is working on an Android device codenamed Boreal. It seems to have many similarities with the software for Google TV Chromecast. Unfortunately, that’s all we know for now, except that there would be support for the AV1 format, a format for video transmissions over the Internet.
The big guessing can begin. Would the Chromecast have a completely different design? Are there any specs that we are missing in the device now? He would appear this year. In any case, it’s not expected to be just a re-release of the Chromecast that came out in 2020, because then it wouldn’t require quite an exciting codename. So there really seems to be something completely new coming.
New Chromecast
In the Netherlands, the Chromecast with Google TV is not available in the Google store, but you can buy it from other web stores.
Are there things that you are missing in the Chromecast or that you would think are a very good idea for the device? Leave your comment below.
