    It's alright but I think the Roku is much better

    You have to do everything using Apps on your phone. I find this cumbersome and the response can be a bit sluggish. I tried Chromecast out because I was looking for something less expensive than Roku. I also heard I could bring things up on my mobile device web browser and then stream them over. I have had mixed success with this. The biggest problem is that I haven't figured out how to stream my Amazon Prime content, and I'm still not sure there is a way. I've tried many times, a few different ways (web browser, etc), and each time given up frustrated. So, I may have saved a few dollars over my Roku, but I like my Roku MUCH better for its agility and wider availability of Apps (namely Amazon Video). It does work alright for Starz and HBO, but it doesn't really save the history, I have to start fresh every time.

    What more can you want? $35 (or cheaper) to stream all of your favorite apps, shows, clips, and movies to your TV....on HD! YouTube, Netflix, Google TV/Movies, and a bunch of web-enabled movies on sites. Stream them over to your TV. Takes about 5 min set up and 3 steps to do.

    The device was simple to set up just plug in to your tv then to power them follow instructions and download supported apps and you're good to go! I'm just hoping they add support for local files from cell phones and support of more apps!

    I bought one for my mom after I showed her mine. She was very excited about it and figures it out right away. The only issue i had was that it wouldn't connect to her wifi. I tried switching routers and nothing. Then I tried it again with the original and it worked. Other than that its awesome.

    I was disappointed to discover it wouldn't work on my Kindle or my son's Ipod; it only works from the laptop or Chromebook. It's not as universal as I was hoping. Okay tool for the price though.

    It is easy to set up this device. However it would be nicer if more apps were added. In addition they still need to fix some bugs because it crashes too much... but for the price its a good item
