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).

    works great for YouTube and other apps.. easy install and setup - but not Amazon Prime! has been a pain to deal with - getting it configured properly ( for Prime) has been hard.

    No remote. You have to use your phone. Better to buy the model with a remote which has more features than the phone app.

    A great streaming device. I personally like the Roku better, but I need to mirror from XFinity and only Chromecast will work.

    Bought this to allow casting easily with my early model vizio. Now it's almost a standard feature (casting, not chromecast) built into smart displays, tv's etc

    So convenient to be able to turn on the tv with voice. I listen to more music on speaker system with the added convenience, and I really appreciate it.

    I decided to try the Chromecast for an older Samsung smart TV that is getting really slow. Overall, it worked fine. But I did not like having to cast everything from my phone and having no remote. Having to open each app and cast it felt a bit more cumbersome than just having all the apps in one screen. I felt it also took a little longer to cast than just opening an app from a menu. The other thing I did not like was that there is no way to cast the Apple TV+. So, in the end I decided to return it and will likely get the Amazon Fire Stick.
