    My experience with the Chromcast has been great so far. It seems that a lot of people expect things from the device that it was never intended to do, the main one being screen mirroring from your devices, it is not a screen mirror at all. The Chromecast does work with applications that have the Chromecast ability built into them. Popular apps like Netflix, Hulu Plus, and YouTube have the ability. The one downside to the Chromecast is that is doesn't function with all applications. Google recently opened up the Chromcast SDK to the public though so I would expect that this going to change at least for Android apps very quickly. You do need a device (phone, tablet, or computer) to control the Chromecast. Open up the content you want to stream to your TV and press the Chromecast button to see the magic. This device is great for a back bedroom TV or just getting Internet content to a bigger screen as long as the app has the Chromecast ability.

    Still evaluating it. It hooked up easily to the HD socket on my tv. I had to buy a brand new ipad because it would not work with a first generation IPAD. I probably would not have bought it, if the product or best buy disclosed to me that it would not work with IPAD 1st Gen.

    The Chromecast setup is incredibly easy. I bought this device for my mother-in-law. She didn't like watching Netflix on her Ipad. With the Chromecast, she can now view Netflix on her TV. The steps are simple enough that even she could do it - and she's both somewhat of a technophobe and a slow learner. Chromecast works with other applications, check the product description. It'll be nice when even more things are supported. For what it does and how simple it is to setup, I wouldn't hesitate on purchasing.

    Great product if looking to just cast Youtube and Netflix on your tv. Very user-friendly, easy to set up , and a reasonable price. However, doesn't cast other apps such as safari browser or chrome browser on your phone or tablets. Can use cast extension to cast tabs from google chrome on your laptop but the speed isn't great.
