Actually I am quite confused, how does Chromecast With Google TV compare to Android boxes?

Is it just the same but with the additional option to cast from other devices to the TV?

bro android tv with chromecast the new one with the remote is basically android tv box. Only difference is u need to figure out buy different dongle/wire if you want connect external USB drive.

almost all androidTV box that is "official" (when I mean official, i mean android tv box that can play netflix in HD, they have pass or contain security services from google) have cast ability (wireless mirror display from PC/Android).

the one you link here is OLD ONE. Only use for screen cast/mirroring.

get the NEW one. here https://www.whathifi.com/reviews/google-chr...-with-google-tv

Thanks for the advise,confused with the terms, didnt know the new one is basically an android tv box.

People seem to quote specs in TV boxes a bit. Why does that matter? I thought playing and streaming video is not very resource intensive.
