The unit is fairly easy to install and start using. It requires your smart phone to select what you are going to "Cast" to the TV but does not use data on the phone while watching on the TV.

I decided to give this chromecast a shot because I was annoyed with the first generation one that I received as a gift. I didn't like the first gen because it was somewhat bulky and didn't flex well coming out of the back of an Xbox1. This Chromecast solves both of those problems and has some neat features like linking to my facebook pictures, telling me the weather and allowing me the option to feature a variety of interesting backgrounds. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because the facebook pictures get cropped poorly much of the time. Perhaps there is a setting configuration to correct this but I don't care enough to mess with it at the moment.

This gadget takes minutees to connect and set up. We bought it specifically to stream YouTube TV on the big screen, and it works perfectly.

This chromecast is pretty cool. Takes 10 mins to set up, quick and somewhat east. It is nice if you do not own a smart tv!

I was in between Chromecast and the Amazon fire stick. I am quite pleased that I chose Chromecast. It has everything that I need in being able to stream on my tv. Would make this purchase again.

This is an excellent add-on to a non-smart TV. Installation and set up was quick. Now I can stream net-flix from my Ipad . Time to ditch Comcast.

Got this for a friend, she is not very technically inclined. She was able to figure this out and set it up on her own. She loves it.

This is a must have media streamer as it works great with your phone and tv. Your phone is pretty much the remote. The media streamer is getting a ton of app support from cable channels now. Sure it works great with Netflix but the biggest feature for me is the support from so many cable channels. Pretty much if it is a video streaming app, you could pretty much stream it on your tv. Also various videos on the internet from your phone can be streamed as well. The wifi reception works really well too. Tremendous bang for your buck!
