Thinking of buying a Galaxy A3 (2016). Can I successfully mirror the screen via Google Home app/Chromecast?
Post Body

Hi,

As the title says, I am thinking of buying a Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) for my wife who mostly uses the phone for phones, messages, reddit & basic gaming.

The deal breaker would be the missing notification led and the (so I've heard) missing screen mirroring function. What I need to know though is if you can successfully "Cast screen / audio" using the Google home app. I am aware that you can cast specific apps like Youtube & Netflix but this particular function not working is a huge deal breaker.

Also, regarding the missing notification light, how did you compensate? I've checked the Noled app but I've also read that it's not so battery friendly.

Thanks
