Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Chromecast's ease of use, streaming capabilities, and picture quality. Many appreciate its affordability and the ability to transform a standard TV into a smart TV. However, some users experienced connectivity issues, and the lack of a physical remote control was a common point of feedback. The small size and generally positive performance were also frequently noted.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Having a teenager live at home is especially useful. Getting this item allowed my mother in law to watch Disney Plus on her television, which I don’t believe was fully compatible with Disney Plus. Crisis averted, and everyone is happy.

    I bought a knockoff version originally thinking I was a financial genius. But DON’T! The other operating systems used are NOT streaming compatible, even in 720p settings! This device works like a charm. Not a single issue with casting to my tv or connection with devices and/or internet connection.

    It streams ok when the app or program supports it. Unfortunately there in-lies the problem, not every app supports stream casting especially from a computer and there isn't an easy way to just stream your desktop or home screen (at least from an Apple Device). If you're an android/google home I am certain it would do great for you.

    I purchased this chromecast to work with my tv. Since I have a 14 month old daughter i like to keep her engaged in different activities. This device paired with my google assistant allows me to speak various commands to show different content on the tv without having to steam it from my cell phone.

    Nothing wrong with this model I would just wait for the new model or spring for the ultra. I purchased an ethernet adaptor for this model, but with stadia dropping soon and the ultra having 4k and ethernet connection built in that model feels like the better option at this point tbh
