I wish I had went with the screen beam mini instead of the chromecast. It works ok on some products & not at all on others. Screen beam is the way to go.

We tried this in two different settings with a variety of computers and phones. It worked the best on a phone, but not good enough. We returned it.

I was looking a way to watch content from my cell phone into the tv
And I made research online and found this devise was kinda of what i was needing
So i bought it right away
But for my surprise tgere are certain apps that work with it
Not every app does
Plus is a really bad and slow stream
I just returned it and bought a different device
And the other one definitely works as a mirror
I can see everything on my phone into the tv
Wirelessly

If you want to cast from your phone or tablet and don't have a smart phone, this may be just the thing. A little unstable at times

I had read good reviews of this item but it was not practical to hook up to my TV in our living room. The connectors don't work with my equipment.

Chrome cast has to be reset each time in use. It's difficult to cast each time. Once attached the navigation is great from channel to channel

Wasn't very user-friendly and connecting to it was pretty hard at least in our case with our software. Definitely not as good as the Apple TV
