The last conference in which Google presented the new Pixel and Pixel XL, terminals designed entirely by Google, although manufactured by the veteran HTC, also showed us the new devices with which Google wants to get fully into our homes and try to make us the easier life. In addition to the Pixels, Google presented the new generation of Chromecast, a device that allows us to send content in 4k quality to our connected TV. After several weeks of waiting, Spanish users who are interested in purchasing it can now do so directly through the Google store.
Of all the models that the company has launched to date this is the first that supports content in 4k quality, content that today can still be counted on the fingers of the hand, although little by little more and more producers are betting on this format. Many people think that this device does not make much sense in the market, since to begin with, you need to have a 4k television, to be able to take advantage of it.
This type of television already offers us different types of connectivity so really this device can be used in those cases where the TV is not compatible or it offers us compatibility problems with our device. This device is not only compatible with videos in 4k quality, but it is also compatible with videos in HDR, a new content format where contrast, lighting and color are considerably improved.
Due to the quality of the content and the space it occupies, the Chromecast Ultra has an ethernet port to connect it to a router to take advantage of the bandwidth that this type of connection offers us compared to the wireless connection. The Chromecast Ultra is priced at 79 euros with free shipping, but until the last week of November, the first shipments of this device will not begin.
