I have the LG G2 and this was the one thing stopping me from getting the chromecast. NOW it's a no brainer.

Nice! Guess I won't need "Mirror" anymore! So the "Cast Screen" button will be different than the one that is already in the Setting menu under Display?

Nice! Although I do wonder if sending screen data over WiFi when playing a game, will be fast enough to actually play the game on your TV. I play zen pinball regularly and wouldn't like to miss balls because of slow data.

Works flawlessly with my 5s and Apple TV, so it shouldn't be a problem with CCast. Maybe it depends which game you play though.

Both devices are 802.11n capable, so that shouldn't be the problem. Does Apple TV support the 5 Ghz band? I do know Chromecast doesn't.

They showed a live demo in the keynote and it looked practically in sync.

Other than the fact that it's an exact copy of Apple TV, you're right, no correlation to the letter i. /endsarc.

You are correct, the main difference, hopefully will be, we saved $64.

Id pay $64 more for a complete ecosystem than limited ability. I have Chromecast. Both are awesome but Apple TV offers so much more.

If Chromecast now mirrors your Android phone or tablet. So I can play games or browser, facebook, hangouts, Play all access, and so much more. Then how again does Apple TV offer so much more?
Oh wait, that's right it doesn't.

Looks like someone got offended from such a general and opinionated post. Geez, fanboys are sprouting faster than weeds this summer.

Complete?????? Waste of money maybe! Apple TV; no one I know is dumb enough to use Apple TV. Everyone I know just dl's straight to their phone; oh that's right, you still can't do that unless you dl into iTooones first and then you get an error message. Hah!!!!!
Go play with your Apple TV and leave technology to Android.

You probably know nothing about Apple TV.
I can't stand "streaming" to my TV via my Nexus. I watch all my sh*t straight from my macbook in the zip of a click. Watching my torrented shows and movies from my Macbook is great. Way less hassle than the silly sh*t I need to keep up with. Go stroke your ego somewhere else, tool. Your retardation doesn't work here.
Another clueless and butthurt fanboy.

So the GS5 is the only 2014 phone that supports screen casting.

The "LG G2 Pro" also came out in 2014.
Although, it's actually called the LG G Pro 2.

I pressed the button on my Nexus 4 and it keeps saying that casting screen failed. It also says that it's a beta feature in parenthesis while you're attempting to cast it.

Chromecast can now mirror your Android screen to your TV: here's which phones will support it
