I have been using Google Chromecast for years. We have one on each of our televisions sets and use them all the time to connect to our phones and steam our favorite movies, shows, listen to movies and more!

This new HP Envy x360 not only is a power packed laptop, but it also doubles as a tablet! Just fold the keyboard back and you are ready to go. ...
