    it does nothing, you can watch YouTube and a few other apps that's it, every smart TV can already do that.

    For the price it certainly beats out a Roku. Hopefully they will add some other applications like Hulu Plus, etc.

    If I didn't live on netflix I wouldn't have liked it. But I do like that I can plug it a TV or a Projector and that device is now instantly Netflix capable. The Computer can cast the chrome web page. I'll like it when Windows media player and other programs build in the casting option. But for the price it's really nice. Set up is a little wonky, but I think that's because google way oversimplified instructions in an effort to make you think it was easy set up. Ironically, if the instructions had been more descriptive, could have been an easy set up.

    It's too slow compared with my Apple TV, I recommend that over this product but you can't beat the price. Also you can't stream Amazon prime movies.

    Nice item, but for elderly no quite as simple, use for a while and get used to. The I-phone does work, that is all I tried, nice clear picture.

    But several of the products do the same thing. A gaming console or wifi tv renders the chrome cast unneeded.

    I bought this item to cast everything on my screen, but learned that it only casts certain items on your phone like Pandora, YouTube, and videos you watch online from websites. You cannot cast your screen like you would if you had an hdmi cable connecting the 2 devices. If you're looking for something simple to set up and use for small things, it's worth it. If you have a smart TV, most android phones can cast to the TV directly and you won't need this.
