    Wanted to watch tv shows when I moved into new apartment but didn't have time to shop new smart tv. Quick trip to beat buy and I'm enjoying hbo and Netflix, subscription needed of course. However gets stuck maybe once a month as part of booting tv. Plus phone may still show program playing, but overall because of easy connection made available on most apps it's good

    This is the 3rd one we've bought for our house and everyone in the family loves them. Easy to use and handles all of the video streaming we want. Would be great if Google and Amazon would work out their differences and offer each other's services on their respective devices but would still recommend the Chromecast.

    Chromecast gets better each month, with more apps utilizing it and more ways to cast in high quality. I have them connected to 4 TVs and it is great, we can watch Netflix, Play Movies, etc from any of them. Just wish a few others like Amazon would develop the ability to use Chromecast for their Prime members.

    I went into the store trying to decide between a Fire Stick, Roku and Chromecast. The Best Buy employee recommended the Chromecast but ultimately, it was my decision to purchase. After trying all three, I like the Roku the best. The Chromecast loses connection often and is extremely glitchy when mirroring content from my phone and laptop's Chrome.

    I had the original chromecast and it died after 2 years. Purchased this one and hopefully it last longer than the first.

    This is less clunkier than the first one and seema to be lighter too. Also connection appears to be faster.

    This is my second Chromecast. I also own the apple TV, and think the Chromecast delivers a lot more for a fraction of the cost. Casting is easy and works very well. I also have a Google home device and it's easy to cast just by giving the Google home instructions to cast from a particular app

    This is a good device for getting Fox Sports since the local station is currently off the air on Direct TV.

    The only complaint I have is that it will sometimes disconnect from the wifi and wont reconnect. Then we have to go through the process of restarting the chromecast.

    Mainly bought the Chrome Cast because I already had the 'Hey Google" Home unit. Still haven't figured out how to get the two to work together. As for casting to the TV using the different TV channel iPhone apps, it is working pretty well. Be forewarned, most TV content has a price, very few 'Free Lunches' here.

    This is a wonderful product. It allows you to use this awesome technology of mirroring your android phone screen or stream services on any kind of TV with an HDMI port. Video and Photo Quality is amazing and the video streaming is smooth with no stuttering! I would recommend this!

    Connecting can be a little complicated your first time around but it is much easier than the early versions.
