Anycast Or Google Chromecast Which One Is Better? Advise by Kabiyesi12(m): 7:26pm On Aug 28, 2020
Hello guys,
I am planning to buy the best out of this 2 devices Anycast 12 plus and Google Chromecast.
I have read many article as to regards the 2 devices but I need an advise from experienced people in the house. The 2 gadget seems good but I need the best out of the 2.
Can one cast with Google Chromecast without an internet connection? And if you don't mind you can add the screenshort of your own cast

According to what I read about the two device it seems Google Chromecast is dual purpose in the sense that it can cast your TV show, stream your Netflix, YouTube and many more and can also Mirror your phone contents like picture saved on your phone and local files store on you phone can also Mirror videos from your phone with WiFi connection but will need internet connection to cast your youtube, Netflix and the likes.
On the other hand anycast can only mirror your local files like picture and videos without internet connection but with WiFi connection.
It seems Google chromecast is better since it can function like anycast when connected with WiFi and can also be connected to the internet to for streaming whenever need be.
I stand to be corrected with reasonable proof.

It's very possible, according to what I read. You can only get that done by streaming it on your phone with data (internet) connection then you will connect with your TV via Anycast through Hotspot, and Anycast will start to mirror your phone.
Anycast will display anything that is running on the screen of your phone, by so doing you can stream Anything with Anycast.

The difference between Anycast and Chromecast is that Anycast drains your battery while mirroring the anything on your phone screen and can not multitask. But Chromecast does not drain your battery when you are streaming shows or washing film online, also, you can not multitask while mirroring your phone screen with chromcast.
If you are Mirroring on any of the device anything that happen on your phone screen you will see on your TV screen too, but it's not like that while streaming with Chromecast.

Infact the basic different is that Anycast can only cast your phone screen that's anything that runs on your phone screen you will see on the tv screen with the help of hotspot connection to you Anycast. While Chromecast can cast your phone screen and also stream your favourite tv show with the use of internet connection.
