We all know that one person who loves showing us whatever they’ve found on their phone. A video, a meme, even a whole TV show in some cases – and even the most advanced tablets can’t compete with a big TV screen. With the Google Chromecast 2nd Generation, whipping what you’re seeing up onto the big screen in full HD is oh-so easy!

The device itself plugs into one of your TV’s HDMI ports, and likewise hooks up to your home Wi-Fi. From there, it’s doing all the legwork for you, and can beam whatever you’re doing on another device – think Android or iOS phone or tablet, or even a Chromebook, Mac or a Windows PC – up onto your TV screen in real-time.

Because you’re casting what you’re doing onto your TV, you don’t need to log in again into Netflix, Disney+, iPlayer, or what-have-you. Instead, you can keep using your mobile or other device to control what you see on the TV – it essentially becomes its own remote control.

If your TV isn’t quite up to the smart TV generation yet, or you’re looking to get the things you enjoy on a tablet or a laptop up onto the big TV in full HD, the Chromecast 2nd Generation is a fantastic solution. From its effortless setup to its consistent connectivity, you’ll be watching, listening and gaming like never before!
