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.

    google stealing my money again

    another way google steals our money and makes us buy product more expensive than we need. i am forced to use casting with some streaming because gets around copyrights. but all i want it the cheapest solution. but unless you get the more expensive chromecast with a remote that i have no need of since i can do what i want with my Ipad, i can't run to off. so it constantly draws power. i spent about an hour on the phone with google support and was told there is no way around it other than unplugging from power when not using it. why? if you can make an app to control it why not make it so it will turn it off and then use the signal from the HDMI connection to turn it back on? but this way one is forced to buy a more expensive unit.

    Fullfills its purpose. Just wish it could draw it's power from the HDMI port (pin 18 IIRC) rather then requiring a separate power cable.
