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.

    Initially, I loved it. It worked really well, especially paired with a google nest. I was able to turn my tv on and off using my voice just by connecting the two devices on the Google Home app on my phone. I'm still able to do that, but the actual function of this device (the ability to cast from my phone to my tv wirelessly) is now spotty most times. It's now such a hassle to try to cast because I'm constantly having to reset the chromecast. Of course, this started happening now that the return period is over at Best Buy. :(

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi nacevedo88, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate you taking the time to tell us you enjoyed using Chromecast and we're to hear you've experienced some connection issues recently. If you're experiencing spotty connection or slow streaming, we recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested. This may happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. If the issue is certainly caused by your Chromecast, we'd be more than happy to work with you to isolate and tackle issue. You can reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/contactflow madebygoogle
