CHROME CAST ROKU MOVIE

Read our Chromecast with Google TV HD review. That said, this is an excellent HD option for those who just want something cheap. It might ultimately make more sense to spring for a 4K streamer, especially if you have a 4K TV or might get one. It offers Alexa support, so you can use your voice to control the TV, but it still lacks physical volume, mute and power buttons. For example, the remote that comes with Roku's entry-level streamer, the Roku Express, lacks voice control or the ability to adjust the volume, never mind being able to turn the TV on or off. Other entry-level HD streaming devices skimp on hardware features in order to sell their players at a lower price. Roku TVs are some of the most popular streaming devices out there.

Then use Windows' 'Connect' or 'Cast' button from the Quick Settings or Action Center. Chromecast’s basic model is a great all-purpose video player and media center, capable of streaming a movie in 1080p HD or playing your favorite songs from. It also comes with a built-in button to access the Google Assistant. Enable Screen Mirroring on Roku by going to Settings > System > Screen Mirroring > Screen Mirroring Mode. It's speedy and offers the same form-factor and remote as the Chromecast with Google 4K, which means that it doesn't need line-of-sight to work and can seamlessly control your TV's power, volume and inputs. If you're looking for a cheap streamer for your HD TV, this is the one to get.

Features: Roku devices generally have more features, such as the ability to pause and rewind live TV and the option to play games. Roku, Google GOOGL -1.37, and now Amazon all make sticks that let you watch movies and TV from services like Netflix NFLX -2.88, Hulu Plus, and Amazon Prime.

The brand new Chromecast with Google TV HD is far and away the best HD-only, entry-level streaming device you can find. Price: Chromecast is generally cheaper than Roku, with models starting at around 30, while Roku devices range from 30 to 100.
