    Chromecast is worthed

    The installation was easy. Using iphone and ipad, I downloaded the Chromecast app. Using Windows 7 or 8, I downloaded the Chrome browser. For iphone and ipad, I can only cast Netflix and Youtube - I am OK with that because mainly those 2 are what I need to cast. For Windows, it only works in the Chrome browser (I realized that's why it is called Chromecast). Happy casting ...

    Truthfully a super cool tool to watch videos on YouTube and stream online movies. I do believe I would choose Apple TV over this product but didnt because of the cost. Apple TV mirrors what is on your Iphone and using Chrome cast makes you download apps to work through. Still works fine with the amount we use it.

    Pretty good alternative to Apple TV

    So far..the Chromecast is another great alternative to view Netflix on, but that's about it at this point. Hopefully Google will add more entertainment apps very quickly, it doesn't match Apple TV at this point in time. But if you don't want to spend $100 for an internet entertainment unit and can be patient until Google ups the app count, the Chromecast is probably for you.

    This is easy to use with our smartphones and tablets just look up the content that you want to stream and touch the Chromecast button and it asks you where to stream it. It even offered to stream it to our other two TVs that don't have the Chromecast dongle plugged in when it detected them on our WiFi router. I have sent the content to both of our other TVs and it works fine.

    I got Google - Chromecast for my daughter so she can watch her animes on her tv instead of her ipad mini. She has been using it everyday since she got it. Only lags from time to time. But her overall experience has been pleasurable. It is a easy and fast way to stream netflix and such to your tv.

    The Chromecast started with only a couple of apps available for it but after one year it had so much going on for it. The amount of apps that ad functionality to it keeps growing On the last update you can even cast your phone to the TV. What I love for it is that I can look for shows/movies while I still play something on the TV. For the price is the best one out there.

    Great for streaming apps approved by Google to your TV. Worthless for streaming anything else due to Google's active interference with non-approved Chromecast apps. So if you're using Netflix or Hulu 5 stars. If you want to stream a MP4 or MKV, 0 stars.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
