    This product is great for anyone who wants to watch Netflix on their HD TV. The software on the Google Chrome browser or Android device still have some smoothing out but overall it is a great device for the price.

    One of my go-to gifts. Inexpensive and works great. I even bought one for myself. It clearly displays your cell screen on your TV. Live it!

    I have a smart TV that is not so smart anymore, so I bought this inexpensive gadget, and its great! Its easier to maneuver the apps with the phone, tablet or computer than with a remote. I think this works better than having a slow working smart TV. I like casting anything on the chrome browser up on the bigscreen. I have had no problems.

    Great idea, an HDMI TV plugin to display photos, videos, pc tabs. It's not tied to any particular brand of hardware so I'm using an Acer netbook with Intel parts to display onto a VIZIO TV. A bit tricky to plow thru the drop down windows to get the wifi encrypted key working. We'll have fun. So far it displayed you-tube videos, our photos from recent trip out west, etc.

    Give Google Chromecast a try. Once you dig in to all the apps and use it with your iPad or IPhone or other devices, it opens another door to your home entertainment world.

    The device is great when you want to see what is on your computer projected on a TV screen. It is also great when more than one person wants to vies the item comfortably.

    Works great but limited features for iPhone / iPad

    Works great with the TV and was easy to setup and sync. However, there currently aren't many apps for the iPhone and iPad to use with the Chrome. In addition, the Chrome browser for the iPhone and iPad doesn't support "casting" your browser to the TV. That was the main feature I was looking for. I hope that feature is added in the very near future. So if you are a heavy iPhone / iPad user, the Chrome may not be the product you're looking for.

    This wasn't compatible with my Windows phone, unfortunately, so I had to install on my laptop. I had hoped to be able to use my phone :(

    Got the Chromecast for my hubby as a gift. Great gadget but took a while to set-up with his phone to see his picture library. Good price!

    This does exactly what it says it will do. And it does it amazingly well for a price that cannot be beat. Youtube and Netflix stream fantastically well. They both have a "Watch on chromecast" option offered to viewers. Watching a video that is not from one of these sites does not steam as well. It just shows your screen which is not refreshed fast enough for video.
