    You can watch Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, Pandora, Plex, and few more, but that's it. It also doesn't sleep, so if you fall asleep with it on, it's on when you wake up.

    I love the chromecast, but mainly I love it b/c of the price. The first night I had it, I streamed Rain Man from my Samsung Tablet to the Chromecast and only once did I have a slight buffering event. I have used it to watch "how to" videos from youtube on the big screen and also to stream my music from google play music to it, thus sending it through my stereo system. Streaming the music was so far the one and only time I had a problem with it. I suppose whatever device you are streaming from should probably remain in one spot or at least close one spot. My play music dropped once or twice, but I was picking the tablet up and moving it around different parts of the room. Happy with my purchase!

    It works great for You Tube, Netflix, Pandora, HBO GO and list continues to grow. It's small, priced right and no monthly fees. I have one on every TV in my house. I think it's a great little device!

    For the given price, this is a great product. But it only works with Chrome & Youtube. With these restrictions, we have to use this device with limited options.

    This is a great little tool to be able to stream from multiple devices directly to your TV. I have streamed from my computers, Android phone, Android Tablet, and Iphone and Ipad. All work flawlessly.

    I have both Apple TV and the chromecast. One good thing about chromecast is that everything is done through your phone, computer or any other device that you use on a daily bases. There won't be any learning. Since you most likely plug it into your USB port on your TV, you are not paying for the usage of this device when not using it; unlike the Apple TV. If you are into Apple, meaning you have any iDevices, Apple TV would work better for you. There you had my honest review.

    Well worth the small investment. Just being able to view U Tube on my big screen TV is great. Works well and is relatively easy to operate. Setting it up was a bit tricky and did take some time.

    Gave this to my sister for Christmas, she loved it. Not only does she enjoy it, my family did as well. Enjoyed streaming through YouTube on a big screen (our television) the whole Christmas Day.

    I bought 1 at the beginning... ended up buying 9 later on for gifts! If I loved it, I knew my friends and relatives would do too. Easy set up and useful in mirroring my devices.

    This is a great, easy to use accessory that can be used on any TV with an HDMI input. Why spend thousands on a connected TV when you can get this for only $35.

    This works really well with mobile device but not with the PCs. Still serves the purpose I bought it for. It would be good if it had chrome browser in it to directly surf website using the device/

    This thing is cool and all but not what I expected. I ordered this so I could use it in my dorm but it doesn't work with the Internet. It works everywhere else though. It's just a bit inconvenient.
