Ultra HD, HDR and Dolby Vision support, Ethernet connection, Simple, Fast, Easy to use, Affordable
Your smart TV probably offers all these features already, Needs a consistent method for confirming the quality you're viewing
Chromecast Ultra is an easy and predictable upgrade for Google and a device that makes complete sense by supporting the latest formats for video streaming to your TV. However, unlike the previous two Chromecast devices that plugged a gap in your TV's skil...
