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.

Works Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google Chromecast works exactly as it said it would. I use it with Youtube TV. No more high price cable or satellite bills thanks to this little gadget. I didn't need the more expensive one. This one works just fine.

Works great with older tv models that are not smart tvs. I had the old Chromecast forever but HDMI finally broke due to the design but this new one is designed way better.

Okay
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good and fairly easy to install and use, but it is smart phone based and doesn't work as well for all video formats as the earlier (PC) version of the Chromecast does.

Posted .Hi RayB, thanks for sharing the details of your feedback on Chromecast, and we’re sorry to hear that it didn’t meet your expectations.

You can stream content from cast-enabled apps like YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and many more on your devices over to your TV with Chromecast. Casting to a TV is a simple way to enjoy your favorite apps optimized for the big screen. You can use your mobile device or tablet as a remote to control everything from playback to volume.

Expanded non-smart display capabilities

Purchased on sale for under $30. Great addition as we now have HBO Max without purchasing another large display.

Great tool for TV
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I picked this up on line checking out, did not know exactly what to do with it, must have Internet not just steam from phone. Well once Internet was good, I use this all the time

Great streaming device.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everyone should have a few of these lying around. I have other streaming devices but there are many sites that are not included. I use my device a few times a week. Since I have owned it, no issues besides the occasional restart.

Excellent tool for watching shows
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love chromecast - finally decided to upgrade since I had the original model. It is so easy to cast from the various streaming platforms straight to my projector. Just plug and play.

Paired well with our Oculus, wish setup was better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Checked all the boxes we wanted, (no more messing with hdmi chords and allowed us to cast our oculus quest to the screen for parties). Setup took longer than I would have liked, I’d have preferred the option to not link it to my google account nor name it as we only have 1.

Not move me
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this item thinking it would be just as easy to setup as a Roku ...not. Why can they not just put instructions in the box? Can not move from tv in bedroom to tv in living room easily. Roku you can just unplug and move no problem not this one.

Good but just get the newer gen of chomecast
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to be realistic that this is very cheap and outdated tech. I've had mine for a year and like it but I should have gotten the newer generation to begin with.

Works great for streaming
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not all the streaming services are on my smart TV. I bought a Chromecast so I could watch the shows that were exclusive to a service. I've only tried CBSAllAccess, but it works great for that.

Good but not Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for static pictures, but when streaming the audio clips and the video is a little jerky. The mobile phone or tablet has to be very close to the unit to get the best performance. The jerky video and audio clipping gets worse the further away you are from the TV.

Oculus Casting
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for casting from an oculus, since you don’t need to mirror from your phone. Slight lag in display/audio (0.5s), but easily remedied with earphones for the oculus user.

Great value for being able to stream movies
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely a great value for being able to watch some movies that I would have had to purchase on DVD or anything else of that nature. I would recommend to anyone instead of cable. Love it!

Works great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to replace my old 1st Gen Chromecast because it was starting to give me problems. I bought this new one in hopes that everything will be fixed and it was. Haven't had any problems yet and don't expect any.
