    Streaming is perfect with no lag and depending on your device the picture quality is excellent. No need in paying a cable bill anymore when the family just watch NETFLIX, CRACKLE, YOUTUBE, and everything else from the phone or tablet. We even read emails on the t.v.

    This little item does everything it says, and is extremely easy to connect. The only downside is that you can only use it for youtube, netflix, and chrome on your computer.

    Instalation is easy and works well with apps. Value for money especially with free subscription of NetFlix. Not many apps to support it.

    Since I will be an empty nester very soon,I will 'cut the cable' within the next year. I wanted to try this to see if it would fit my needs. It does (I bought a second one recently) and my family uses them quite often. it just makes sense to get rid of over priced cable.

    I love this device and I travel with it everywhere. I have two in my house on different computers and then a 3rd one that I travel with. I use it at hotels or at our second home. The best thing is that more and more apps are announcing compatibility with it every month.

    This is my second one for the kid to wake that fool up by casting to his tv to a youtube movie that I made to WAKE UP NOW! :D I just wish these were on 5Ghz channel instead of 2.4 fighting with the PS4 and other devices.

    Got rid of cable thanks to this little device, It is so nice to watch whatever you want in the big screen. Only thing is that there is not option in ios to literally show every screen from iPhone to TV like android does.

    The chromecast is a good device that is the best with a good wifi set up. The Bluetooth will be laggy if your internet is. I haven't been able to set it up in my phone yet.

    I LOVE IT! EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO SET UP IS IN THAT BOX. (except for your wifi and Computer for initial set up) COMES WITH HDMI CORD!! I watch Hulu Plus, YouTube, and Netflix on this thing its amazing!! I can listen to my music on Google Play Music and YouTube. Put up website on to my TV via the Google Chrome extension on my laptop. It's really cool and I truly enjoy it!! The only thing thats annoying is that sometimes YouTube videos cut off but that doesn't bother me. It has happened a total of 5 times in the two months that I've had this Chromecast. May be due to wifi. STILL LOVE IT ANYWAYS AND ITS CHEAP.

    My sole purpose in buying Google Chrome was to use it in conjunction with Slingbox. Google Chrome IS NOT compatible with Sling Box. So the device did not meet my needs.

    product is great , the price is better all the other streamers cost at least 100.00 bucks and they aren't that great this one is. It's easy to use and easier to operate

    We recently scaled down our monthly cable service to just broadband connection and utilize HBOGO, Prime and several other services. Quality is fantastic, speed isn't an issue in the least, and easily use your phone to control your tv! How freakin awesome is that!?

    I've used it a couple of times. I thought this had apps on it (Netflix, Hulu Plus,...).. The Chromecast lets you connect your phone or tablet to your TV. It is easy to use.

    I have used a cord to hook my computer to the TV before, but the chrome cast is great because there are no cords to connect the computer and TV. I can watch programs from my computer in a large size on the TV. I have also used it to show pictures on the TV.
