The new Chromecast has a fresh design and is easier to plug into TVs with crowded HDMI ports. It supports the latest Wi-Fi standards and adapts more easily to changing Wi-Fi conditions in your home, so you get higher quality video with less buffering. We added two new colors so you can cast in style while watching content from your favourite entertainment apps including Netflix, Stan, Presto and YouTube.
The new Chromecast will be available from retailers including JB HI-FI, Harvey Norman, The Good Guys and Bing Lee and also on the Google Store for $59.
