excellent for mirroring
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it so I can stream video's from my PC. It doesvery good job for streaming. Now if you expecting 1080 HD output this is not going to deliver that, even mirroring at 720 p sometimes starts lagging if your router is old like mine with other things connected to it you may see some lag for mirroring at high definition from your PC to TV. Its good for Netflix and HBO GO stream at 720 p. Overall, It works pretty good for my requirement.

works like a charm.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Chromecast works as advertised. Google has the strongest collection of minds developing and improving on existing ground breaking internet technology. The size ease of setup availability of updates makes the Chromecast my first choice for Internet streaming of video and audio.

Cool appliance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very cheap, easy and flexible appliance. Plugs right into TV and works off the bat. Need to install Chromecast software on computer and phone to broadcast to the TV, and the Chromecast option often disables and needs to be reenabled on both the phones and the computers, but it's really neat to decide to cast what's on your phone screen or laptop monitor up to a big TV with TV sound to show others. Good way of watching YouTube, other videos, TV shows, etc. that are available on the internet with other people.

Good start, just waiting for more!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have watched this product for quite some time, and when I saw that the price dropped significantly through BB, I jumped on board to give it a try! I love the ease and simplicity that the App and Chrome provide to cast different things to my television. I only wish that it would cast directly from my Mac, not just what's in my Chrome browser.....I'm sure they'll come up with something soon! Now, just need ESPN and HBO to become a la carte services that I can purchase independently of cable, and it's bye-bye cable!!!

A worthy addition to my TV tech
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not quite a complete replacement for my aging Roku, but for the things it does it does them well. Netflix, Hulu. Amazon - these all take longer to boot up on other devices, but on my laptop, tablet, or phone they're nearly instantaneous. Then I just sling them up to the Chromecast. But for the most part, I use this to stream shows from networks' websites - stuff I can't get on streaming services (such as CBS). For $35, that's worth not having to run an additional HDMI to my laptop (or have a dedicated computer).

Good but not perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the Chromecast, my husband doesn't. for the most part it works great. I much prefer it over turning on the game system. It's easy to set up but make sure you have a 4 G connection, It will not work on a 5G and a fairly fast internet connection. The internet speed will effect the quality of your picture. I would recommend getting a Chromecase if you want to any one who wants to use Netflix, Youtube, VUDU and other such applications.

bang for bucks
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was the best 35 dollar investment, easy to use and easy to install. Although everything works fine, I have a HTS by Bose and Onkyo receiver which is connected to all my Blue Ray, Cable box, gaming console and TV via HDMI, therefore I get pictures and sounds of all the devices through it, But When I stream through the chrome cast I do loose the sound in my Bose HTS, only sound I get is from my TV. I'm still trying to figure this out.

Excellent Value for money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google Chromecast is an amazing product for people who wants to use secondary display (specially big size) for mirroring their devices screen. Set up is very easy: you plug it in to HDMI, plug in the USB for power (either to the TV or to the included USB power plug), connect to its ad-hoc network via the chromecast app and then it's good to go. The streaming functions work really well, there's a small small delay if you are using cast function for Chrome tabs since the device acts as a remote more or less. Chromecast doesn't send content from the phone to the Chromecast directly but instead allows the Chromecast device to pull the content from the internet/cloud. The negative of this is no direct mirroring and limits functionality to application specific implementations BUT it allows the device to be turned off or removed from the network or other tasks to be done on the device. Local content that is supported by Chrome browser/OS can be played/cast to TV just by dragging the icon file into the active-cast Chrome tab. Final Thought: If there are more websites and apps that are as integrated as Netflix, this small little device can be ridiculously convenient. It works almost flawlessly between apps, across different devices.

Chromecast is your Cable/Satellite replacer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is easy to setup and use. After unpacking I plugged it in and adjusted the TV to the input source. Next I downloaded the Chromecast app for my phone. I finished configuring (set the name, time and chose a background theme) the device in about 10 minutes. I then opened up my ESPN app and started watching the game. Great stuff. I have had no issues on any apple (4S, 5S and mini) or Android devices casting. It is so easy to use that my 4 yr old can cast his Netflix cartoons without any assistance. :)
