Alongside this information, an image of the new Chromecast next to the second-generation offering was provided. As can be seen, some drastic design changes have been made. For one, the glossy plastic included on the current one has been swapped out for a much more minimalistic matte finish. Furthermore, Google has removed the large Chrome logo and replaced it with a much smaller “G.” Another thing that is worth noting is the fact that the HDMI connector no longer sticks to the rear of the Chromecast magnetically.
