Price and remote control

On Google’s Chromecast, you’ll need to run everything from your phone, tablet or PC. However, sometimes it can be less relaxing than using a remote, so, in the end, it’s up to you – do you prefer using your device or you’ll opt for the good old remote control?

Interface and ease of use

Chromecast’s really basic interface is perhaps the most consumer-friendly out of the two. Android users have the same apps the always use and with the help of Chromecast button, they can easily start the playback on the TV. But while the Chromecast might have a more intuitive UI, it lacks the voice search feature which is present on the Fire TV Stick. However, when it comes to playing content that doesn’t come from a streaming service, Google’s Chromecast wins as it makes streaming of personal videos or photos really easy. But the Fire TV Stick also comes with Miracast support, which means both Chromecast and Fire TV Stick will make screen mirroring for Android and Fire device extremely easy.
