Cheap internet on an HDTV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It streams video from Netflix and YouTube to your TV. In addition, some video formats that run on the Chrome browser on a computer can also be streamed to the Chromecast over your WiFi. The free Google Cast extension must be added to the Chrome browser. Other web browsers are not compatible. Quicktime video is not compatible.

Love it, but need to have Google Chrome to use it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has taken me a little while to get use to Chromecast. I like it, but did not have Google Chrome on the iPad, iPhone or Macbook. Still working out the bugs, but it is nice and convenient when it is working.

Chromecast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best purchases I've made. Works best with your laptop/computer or an android based program. iOS is okay (I'm an apple user), but I use my laptop.

Easy way to stream video to your TV.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With broadband internet you not need the big expenses of Cable. Just connect the Chromecast and stream video and music to your TV from your computer. Gets slow sometimes but works most of the time just fine.

Great Product to make any TV Smart
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Chromecast is so easy for anyone with a smartphone to use. Being able to watch Netflix and Youtube on a TV with such a small and simple device. Instead of paying extra for a smart TV, just get this. It is very reliable and easier for someone to use if they already use these apps on their smart phone or tablet. The only thing I have had issues with is that the buffering of videos to go from pixelated low quality to crisp HD is a bit long and the lack of 5GHz support on WiFi hurts.

Very cool gadget!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got one for 30 dollars and loved it from the start. It was great sitting on the couch and casting our phones, as well as laptops to the screen. The chrome store has lots of apps itself that work great with this so you can cast just about anything

Better than Apple TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I first bought the Apple TV, thinking it was the best one on the market. I soon decided to try out Chromecast since all my friends had purchased it and gave it soaring reviews. I immediately return the Apple TV and kept my Chromecast as a permanent device in my home. It has a beautiful standby display, plays HD videos from my phone, and is not bulky whatever so it is easily hidden. The only downfall is the beta testing of the "mirroring" component through the Chrome browser; it doesn't play HD videos and I am hoping they arrive to a solution soon. Other than that, it's perfect!

Great device - not the most intuitive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mainly bought this device for watching udemy videos on my TV. For $35 its a great device. It does take a little time to get used to but there are plenty of answers on Youtube to answer your questions.

Chromecast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been in IT for over 30 years and it was a bit of a challenge to get this thing configured. Although there was not much to configure the problem is connecting to it through the WiFi. I had to make changes on my Access points in order to get it to config. But it was worth the trouble! I am amazed at how good the picture looks even when casing from a small device. Some content you can only watch from a web browser and with this you no longer have to do so on a tablet, laptop or computer.

Great product/wireless streaming/youtube&netflix
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chromecast has been really fun to use. We took it to a friends house, connected to his wireless very easily and watched YouTube on his big screen tv. We all took turns thinking of and choosing artists and watching the music videos and concert footage. Everyone had a great time! Also, at home we love watching Netflix, especially House of Cards! Easy to use, fairly inexpensive, portable and no monthly fee. An excellent way to get Netflix (only $9 a month/first month free) for unlimited streaming of movies and tv shows whenever/wherever you are! We're hooked on Chromecast!!!!

Easy to setup and use but working bad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup and easy to use. But it doesn't make any better resolution or sound for hd tv as Apple tv does. Wasting money. Go for Apple tv or something else.
