The Google Chromecast (2015) has been very successful due to its low price and ability to wirelessly display YouTube and other Apps from Android smartphones like the ultra low cost ZTE ZMAX Pro (click here for Amazon pricing) on to cheap TVs like the Hisense 50H7C 50 Smart 4K TV (click here for Amazon pricing).

It is easy to set up Google Chromecast (2015) from the ZTE ZMAX Pro.

First, make sure that you have connected the Google Chromecast (2015) to one of the HDMI ports of the TV and powered on the Chromecast by attaching the USB cable to a TV USB port or a USB power adapter. You also need to make sure your TV is powered up, and the HDMI input of your TV is the same port that you connected the Chromecast to.

If you are setting up the Chromecast for the very first time, click here to see how to set up. Note that Google has changed the name of the Google Cast App to 'Google Home'.

We are assuming here that you have already set up the Google Chromecast (2015) and ZTE ZMAX Pro with your local Wi-Fi network.

From your ZTE ZMAX Pro, download the Google Home App from the Google Play Store.

  

Open the Google Home App and click the top right menu icon -> Cast screen / audio -> CAST SCREEN / AUDIO. The App will then search for the Google Chromecast (2015).

   

You can select your Google Chromecast (2015) model once it is found, and the casting connection process will start.

  

Once the casting connection is established, you should be able to see the ZTE ZMAX Pro's screen on the TV connected to the Google Chromecast (2015).

The fact that setting up and using Chromecast from an Android phone like the ZTE ZMAX Pro is effortless allows you to cast to compatible devices like the Google Chromecast (2015) and TVs like the Hisense 50H7C 50 Smart 4K TV. Although the Hisense 50H7C 50 Smart 4K TV has some smart TV capabilities, the Google Chromecast (2015) lets you outstretch your Android phone's Apps like YouTube and games to enhance and extend your Android phone experience to the big screen.
