Old Chromecast with Google TV dongles will get upgraded to Android TV 14 too
Google’s recent event wasn’t just about shiny new Pixel phones. They also showed off some new Nest gadgets, including the Google TV Streamer, which is stepping in to replace the Chromecast. Although the Chromecast with Google TV is being retired, Google promises to keep it updated with software, including a bump up to Android 14.
Behind the scenes at the event, some Google TV product managers spilled the beans about the Google TV Streamer. It’s the first device in the US to run Android 14 for TVs, so naturally, there were questions about this new software. Specifically, folks were curious if there were any features in Android TV 14 that wouldn’t work on older devices, even after they get the update.
