    I purchased this to play movies from apps on my phone and tablet. Great for watching videos and movies on a larger screen. Crisp, sharp picture and sound

    The idea is great, but in practice it's been more trouble than simply plugging in a usb from a computer to the TV. Using YouTube and Google Play work fine. But I can't count the number of times it's disconnected from wifi for no apparent reason, leaving me to reset the device and set up all over again. It's also been very frustrating trying to play files from a computer due to the lower quality and delay time. Either the technology or the app support just isn't there yet.

    I bought this expecting to be able to watch ESPN-3 games on TV. Unfortunately, it just does not work well with this, even using the Chrome browser (slow, jumpy). It works extremely well with Youtube, Netflix, HBO-Go, and others. I am hoping that more aps will become compatible with this product, especially Watch ESPN.

    Technology has passed Chromecast. New smart TVswith browsers and xfinity's new Netflix app make this old.

    This is probably one of the best devices and easiest to use. You basically plug it in, follow the directions and installed within 10 minutes. Love it.

    This will not replace a full-service set-top box (Roku, Apple TV, etc). It will however, work in an extra bedroom or somewhere where there is not a lot of heavy use. While using your phone/tablet/computer as a remote sounds like a great feature, it gets old quick. I would not stop someone from buying this, but don't expect what you may have seen some of the other smart devices out there.

    This is a nice inexpensive streaming device. We use it primarily for NetFlix and YouTube video/audio streaming and the video and audio quality is great.
