Chromecast with Google TV

The new Chromecast with Google TV is just under two weeks old and is getting a software upgrade today. Rolling out now, it’s officially listed as an “incremental update,” with the Chromecast Voice Remote also seeing new firmware.

Along with the new Chromecast this week, Google TV has arrived based on the Android TV we’ve come to know over the past few years. Like Android TV, the “Google TV Home” launcher has been placed in the Play Store for easy updates.

By adding a long sought after remote and being quite affordable, the Chromecast with Google TV is one of today’s highlight announcements. In fact, the Google Store has sold out of the streaming dongle’s “Sky” and “Sunrise” colors.

Over 7 years after it introduced that first successful streamer, Google today launched a brand new Chromecast. The Chromecast with Google TV has arrived with a remote, affordable price, native apps, and more. Here’s just about everything you could possibly want to know about the new Chromecast and where to buy it.

Google’s new Chromecast goes on sale today for $49 with a new Android-based OS, a remote, and more. One detail you won’t get right away, though? Google color-matched the batteries for the Chromecast remote to the hardware.

Google’s original Chromecast delivered a cheap, easy way to get content up on the big screen, but the market has changed a lot over the last seven years. To better compete with the likes of Roku and Fire TV, the new Chromecast with Google TV has arrived: Here’s what it brings to the table.

Google’s new Android-powered Chromecast has finally arrived, but unfortunately, it’s missing one key feature. At launch, Stadia won’t be available on the new Chromecast with Google TV or Android TV in general, for that matter.

We are less than 24 hours away from Launch Night In and have already seen some last-minute leaks. The latest comes from the Canadian Google Store, which this evening briefly revealed how Chromecast with Google TV buyers in that country will get six months of free Netflix.

After the retail packaging was revealed last night, the Chromecast with Google TV has been unboxed. We get a very good and up-close look at the device just under a week before the September 30 announcement.

Last night, retail packaging for the Chromecast with Google TV and Nest Audio leaked, with the latter actually appearing on a store shelf. A leak of the entire “Launch Night In” lineup this morning shows the green Pixel 5 and Google TV UI.

Last week, we learned the name of Google’s upcoming smart speaker, while official renders also emerged. With seven days to go until the official announcement, the Nest Audio has been spotted on store shelves as well as the packaging for Chromecast with Google TV.

We’re less than a week away from what would likely have been called “Made by Google 2020,” or the “Launch Night In” as Google is now calling it. For Pixel fans everywhere, we’re sure that excitement is building for the event, where Google is expected to unveil its latest flagship smartphone, the Pixel 5.

Following our initial report about the product back in March, a handful of leaks have given us insight on Google’s plans to launch a new Chromecast powered by Android TV, though under a new name. Today, we’re getting our best look yet at the hardware for Google’s new Chromecast, including a remote layout we’ve never seen before.

Made by Google’s upcoming “Sabrina” streaming device has thoroughly leaked in recent months. One of the last renaming questions is how it will be branded. A new leak today suggests that it could be called the “Google Chromecast with Google TV.”
