very different from the previous
chromecast which was very much shaped
like a dongle now this has an integrated
HDMI cable for portability it comes in
three colors black red which Google
calls coral and yellow which is called a
lemonade so it is designed so it can
hide behind a TV so it doesn't clutter
up the space it has a dual band 2.4 and
5 gigahertz antennas and works on 8 or
2.11 ac rather than BG and of the
previous chromecast now it has an
adaptive antenna root system inside as
