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.

    Great Google product. Not much of an upgrade from previous model. They say it's faster and now can control Bluetooth. Haven't seen the benefits of Bluetooth in action yet.

    This is a great addition to streaming devices. Originally got it to Screen Cast an Oculus Quest. Turns out it is pretty good at home automation as well.

    This worked well for casting from my Laptop, except that my 75" TV was mounted so you couldn't see any wires/cables and plugging this in defeats my "clean" TV installation. When I get a moment I will experiment to see if the USB option will work?

    I had it installed and set up in minutes. I also noticed that while using the device, YouTube has no commercials. I may just cancel cable. Love it!

    We only purchased this item because the fire stick would not support HBO max. We really like this because we have control on our phone over the tv.

    Needed another Chromecast to stream YouTube TV and other apps to the new tele. Great little device. Recommend to anyone who wants to cut the cord on cable/satellite.

    Great way to cut the cable cord! Force them to be competitive, and not raise rates 3 times a year. One of the best decisions I've made!

    Love how the used a flexible HDMI cable instead of a fixed option. I am able to install it in older TV with small areas where the older version would not fit.

    If you are one of the people who cut cable due to always increasing prices, this one is for you. You can stream videos directly from youtube or any streaming services.

    I've had the 1st gen chromecast since it was released but decided to finally upgrade due to the low black friday pricing. Load times are much improved on the newer model.

    I'm a big fan of the Chromecast. This comes every handy by not having to sign into a new device to stream Netflix or any other streaming service because you know, sometimes there's a limit on how many devices can get signed in.

    I bought this to stream music through it and the one I have in my garage. Although it is hooked straight to the HDMI on the stereo, I still have to turn the TV on for it to work properly without cutting out.
