    Works very well with iPad and smart phones. Computers are touch and go. You can't surf the web while steaming from a computer because it makes the video slow. Overall a great product.

    Chromecast has a good price point... Works fairly well depending on your wifi network... Wifi drops in and out when you get to far away from your router or gateway... The Chromecast will be great if they let more apps on their platform...

    Did not realize that chromecast had to have wifi to work. No Bluetooth. Some say that it has a built in feature of late where wifi isn't needed and the device somehow shakes hands ( through what I do not remember). Mirroring tends to be a little rough. I still learning so we will see.

    It has been so awesome to be able to cast pages from my laptop onto my TV with the click of a mouse - great for Netflix or for working on a project where a bigger screen enhances the experience! Easy to set up with the step-by-step instructions; anyone can do it.

    This little gadget is really cool! It's very easy to use, although they don't explain how to make it work with all of the supported devices. I had to do some googling to understand it all. Overall it's very useful for me to cast stuff from chrome to my TV, which is how I mostly use it.

    The Chromecast is fantastic, especially for older or cheaper "dumb" TVs. The controls are easy both on Android and iOS devices, as well as PCs with Chrome tab streaming. The only drawback is lack of compatibility with 5 Ghz WiFi networks.

    Very easy to use and connect. Wouldnt allow me to play netflix, called chromecast and said it was on netflixs side and couldnt be fixed. Everything else worked great! (Some people say it played netflix for them but it just didn't for me)
