With just over three hours left until the official start of Google I/O 2015, or what is the same, the annual Google developers conference that you will be able to follow live here on Androidsis, it is already strongly speculated about the possible official presentation of two new Google Sticks that the truth seems to us very, very interesting.
The first of them would be what would become the chromecast 2, new Chromecast o chromecast 2015 since we can almost assure that it will continue to retain its same name, although with some very interesting technical specifications. The second of them, long awaited by me, would be a new HDMI stick with which we could convert any conventional television or monitor, into a personal computer with an operating system Chrome OS by Google.
How can this new Chromecast or Chromecast 2 be?
For anyone who does not know it or does not know it yet, chromecast It is a small device for transmitting data via Wifi with which we will be able to turn any conventional television or television monitor into a full Smart TV. With this Google gadget that we can buy for just 35 Euros, we will be able to play games directly on our television, watch You Tube videos, television series and movies through applications such as SeriesDroid or PelisDroid, until making a complete screen mirroring.
In this new version of Chromecast or chromecast 2, which would respect its successful design of the previous model, improvements as important as a new standard Wifi much faster and more efficient, the standard 802.11n that would significantly improve the performance of the previous model. In addition, a new functionality would also be included that would allow it to have autonomy to be used without the need for an HDMI and a USB that is capable of powering the Chromecast or without the need to connect the power converter with which they come from Google Chromecast series. This would be possible to the inclusion of a small lithium battery From which no news or rumor has been leaked other than its possibility of inclusion.
What would the Chrome OS HDMI Stick look like?
It has long been rumored about the existence of the development of a new Google stick called Chrombit, which would be nothing more and nothing less than a whole computer with Chrome OS operating system canned in the tiny dimensions of an HDMI Stick of approximately the same size as Google's Chromecast.
This little gadget that would have the potential to power convert any monitor or TV with HDMI output into a whole computer with Chrome OS operating system, in principle, it is expected to be presented today at the inaugural Keynote of Google I / O 2015.
So far, apart from its possible leaked technical specifications, which point to a processor Rockchip 3288 with GPU ARM Mali 760, 2 GB of RAM, 16 Gb of internal eMMC storage, a USB 2.0 port, WiFi 802.11 ac, Bluetooth 4.0. They have also wanted to speculate on the fact of the price, which if it were confirmed this afternoon that it would not be worth more than one hundred dollars, without a doubt it would be a very, very technological gadget to take into account.
In the end it will be our turn, yes or yes, wait until this afternoon the great Sundar Pichai just confirm or deny everything that is speculated about these two new Google devices which, in my personal opinion, would be the two best possible presentations with which I could start this Google I/O 2015.
along with the new android, google photos and maybe more (some wearable, fiber, etc)
