Does it bring up a phone and display apps as they would appear on a phone? Or do you just get a fullscreen, list of apps etc? I just basically want a bigger, 1 to 1 direct display of my phone on the screen for demonstrating and testing apps. Anyone know if this is possible with Chromecast?
- SixSigma 12y agoI use a £15 thing I got from eBay that does Miracast and DNLA and outputs HDMI, the phone/tablet sends over WiFi. It is a direct mirror of the screen scaled up. The Chromecast is twice the price. I use mainly it to watch YouTube stuff with my gran when I visit her.

- SixSigma 12y agoIt does offer more features, to be fair
- bruceboughton 12y agoSorry, I missed off the <sarcasm> tag.
- SixSigma 12y agoI'm still not sure which side you're on. I think the Chromecast is a slightly more polished product, like many computer bits, you can get better value if you're prepared to have to work a bit or not care about how things look.
- RachelF 12y agoWhat's this £15 thing called? I'd like to get one.
