This updated remote design of Google Chromecast makes functioning the dongle and its services more convenient and easy.
Google’s streaming dongle connects to an HDMI port of the television and because of its small size, it takes less space and gets hidden behind the television.

Google Chromecast Price and Availability
The upcoming streaming dongle is likely to cost around $50(approximately 3600 INR) and if Google includes 4K streaming at this cost, it’ll be cherry on top.
