It’s worth pointing out that the feature is not available to all Android devices yet; select models can take advantage of the beta feature.
As of today, there are just over a dozen smartphones and tablets capable of mirroring to a Chromecast. Comprised mainly of key models from LG, HTC, and Samsung, the list is expected to expand in the coming weeks.
