Looking for ChromeCast or similar device in Chiang Mai….

This is the device that hooks up to your HDMI port in the TV and allows you to watch various programs.
 

I’ve noticed that there are other manufacturers (xiaomi) and also Lazada may sell.

 

Just curious if anyone has purchased a similar device here in CM and your satisfaction.

Amazon Fire TV stick is, to my mind, better and easier. Available on Lazada or Shopee.

An Android box and VPN will let you watch anything. As will installing Bluestacks on a Windows PC.

Have used Firestick for a few years and it is ideal,you can put anything on it. You may need an experienced user to help you set it up.

The Xiaomi one works great. Also Roku stick. I have both.

Would you please share approx. prices, and I assume there's no monthly or other ongoing charges. Is that correct.

 

Also I saw one chromecast ad stating that their 'item' came with details of an app to download to smartphone which then becomes a remote control. IS that typical.

 

Once installed can you access, free, programs from all counties, and typically programs which generally incur monthly charges.

 

Thanks.

Look on Lazada/Shopee for prices, but watch out, there are some fakes about. Ensure it is a Laz Maz site or similar.

Amazon Fire 4K MAX is the best, NOT just 4K.

An Android phone can 'cast' to a Chromecast or a Smart TV, so whatever you can pick up on your phone, it goes onto your PC/telly.

You CANNOT access programs like Netflix, Sky, etc etc unless you have a subscription to them, or an IPTV app, many of which are available for very differing prices.
