Streaming Made Easy With Google Chromecast

This article is sponsored by Best Buy. All opinions expressed are my own.

I love the fact that there are so many apps out there that allow me to watch what I want, when I want, where I want. Wouldn't it be great if there was a way to take the things we love to watch on our portable devices and get them on any HDTV? No upgrade to a SmartTV necessary? Now there is and Best Buy has you covered. 

Streaming Made Easy With Google Chromecast

Stream From Your Phone To Your TV

Watch your favorite movies, shows, live TV, YouTube, and even see your photos on your TV from all your family's devices. Google Chromecast works with over 2000 apps like Netflix, YouTube, and HBO Now. 
Set up is as easy as one-two-three. First, plug Chromecast into the HDMI port on your TV. Then, open the app of your choice and cast to the TV. Finally, sit back and relax. Told you, it's easy. 
 
Bonus: You can still use your phone as you normally would while it is casting to the TV. So text, snap, and tweet away.

Upgrade Your TV For Less

As long as your TV has an HDMI port you are good to go. No need to buy a new TV. You can upgrade it for $35.00 with the Google Chromecast at Best Buy! It's affordable enough to get one for each TV in your home. 

We use ours to upgrade our older TV in the basement. Now the kids can watch whatever they want while the hubby and I use the TV in the living room. Everyone is happy and there isn't any sibling squabbles, at least about the TV! 

Stream With Your Voice

I know we are all loving the voice assistant products. With the new Google Chromecast you can start streaming just by telling Google. “Ok Google, play Game of Thrones from HBO NOW on my living room TV.”

HDTV Compatibility and Connectivity

Like I mentioned above, the Chromecast easily connects to your high-definition televisions through the HDMI port. The high speed wireless connectivity works thanks to the built-in 802.11ac Wi-Fi. 
 
What will you stream using your new Google Chromecast?

    I have a very own version of this product. I needed a new one and I’m glad to see they have made it better. I can’t wait to agree to this Chromecast!

    That voice assist is a must. I love being able to be in my kitchen and be able to tell the gadget what to do! I don’t have to stop what I am doing to take care of things.

    Chromecast is such a handy tool to have. I have one, and we’ve used it multiple times to display things on the TV from the computer.

    This seems like a good option for adding the latest apps to a tv that would otherwise be considered slightly outdated. So many options! Thanks for sharing this!

    I haven’t Streamed anything but the more involved my son is on YouTube and watching Videos I would like to get him off it. So I think we need to venture into Streaming Movies and Music.

    I would definitely stream my music from Napster and Supernatural on Netflix. I love streaming! I have not seen a commercial in a very long time!
