Pretty cool- annoying no mirror for iphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with the apps it that connect to it. One annoying thing is that they need to add a feature to be able to mirror chrome through iphones. Now they can only do that on some droids.

Great and most likely better in the future
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, the Chromecast is pretty amazing. Consider the free 3 months of Netflix (even for existing Netflix customers) and this device unbelievably cheap. Build quality was much higher than expected too. With the Chromecast, I can "cast" Netflix from my computer/phone to any screen with an HDMI port, and using Chrome browser, I can "cast" anything opened in Chrome too (including photos/videos stored on my computer). I hope that in the future, this option becomes available for mobile devices too. For the price and what it can do, the Chromecast is a no-brainer for any media junky, and the potential of even more features in the future makes it even better.

A great way to link my mobile devices and tv
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I typically use my Note 4 and Tab as a second screen when watching tv. Chromecast makes it so much easier to watch my favs from the net on my tv.

Couldn't Get Installed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.From all that I read, the Chrome was something that would fit my needs. I wanted to view the contents of my laptop on my high def TV to watch ESPN3, and also stream movies. However, I was not able to get it installed. In going through the installation, it would always fail indicating that there was a problem with my network or router. My laptop and my Sony Smart Home Theater work fine with the router. I went on-line to the the Chrome website and several other sites to try to determine the problem. None of the sites were of any help. I also looked at all of my router settings. After many hours of research I gave up, and returned the Chrome to the Best Buy store. The customer service department was very cooperative, and processed the return quickly. They recommended that I try the Roku. The Roku installed immediately, and I was up and running within 20 minutes with the same router. I realized that I couldn't connect my laptop top thru Roku, but I didn't need to because it had a free link to ESPN3 installed. About three weeks later, I installed an Amazon Fire Stick to the TV in our bedroom. It also installed, and is working well with no problems. If Chrome would have had some form of detailed support to help me, I'm sure I would have not had to return it.

Makes Netflix easier
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for my mother so she could use her tablet to watch netflix on the television. She likes it much better than hooking up a laptop to the TV. She has had no problems with it.

Great device...even if you have a smart TV!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the chromecast on sale for $25 so the price was right. We have a smart TV with built in apps but was never a fan of entering words into the searches by moving the little arrow keys around to the letter I wanted. Took to long! So much easier to search for content on my phone or tablet then press one button and "boom" it's on the TV. Worked very easily with YouTube, HBOGo, Flixster, and so many more. Definitely worth it.
