Not a great idea
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In order for you to use this is has to be connected to your mobile device. I can just use screen mirror it's the same thing. Don't recommend it

Not what I expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Basically this is a device that allows you to stream from your portable device. There are no built in apps. I should have just gotten an AppleTV.

very cool gadget
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just started using this so take that into account. Just to be clear, the apps are not run on this device itself, the apps are run on your device (phone/ tablet/ computer) and then streamed to the tv. This ends up being great on certain apps - if they specify the app as being able to be "cast" to the tv (which most of the major video apps are), it does great because your device ends up just starting the connection and acting as the controller and the heavy lifting of the streaming is then done directly from the router/ modem to the tv (very little resources utilized on your device). The only downside is if the app is not listed then you are left with screen mirroring, which can still work, but can potentially suffer greatly in lag/ quality because the signal is then being produced by your device, then sent from your device to the router then relayed back to the tv. This puts a huge computing load (and battery drain) on your device. However for only $30 it is well worth the value.

Samsung Galaxy S-7 incompatible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sticker warning for S6 on box but not any warning for S7. Chromecast actually not the problem. But Samsung took out miracast.

Google Chromecast overheats
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Chromecast overheats after only a couple of hours of use; then, transmission slows down until it is finally interrupted. Very disappointing.
