Cheap, effective 4K, HDR streaming, Builtin ethernet adapter, Google Home integration
No native Amazon Video support, No remote control, It'd be easier to navigate with an interface
There's almost no refuting it: Chromecast Ultra offers one of the best values for streaming video devices for 4K TV owners. There's not as much benefit for the 1080p crowd, but if you're looking for powerful, fast streaming in a device the size of a wafer...
