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.

    The ad says "Stream from your phone to your TV. Just like that." Lots of articles tell you that the benefit of this over a fire stick is that you don't need an internet connection because you cast right from your phone. Sadly, these things are wrong, you need an internet connection at your house, so it's not like you can just cast from your phone with your unlimited data plan.

      Hi Techreview, thanks for reaching out. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the need for a high speed Internet with Chromecast.

      We recommend ensuring that your setup meets the following requirements to get the best experience:
      - A high speed broadband connection of at least 20 Mbps with a secured wireless network. Note: A WPA2-Enterprise network connection is not supported.
      - The compatible mobile device or tablet must support either a 2.4GHz or 5GHz connection to set up Chromecast.
      - Ensure all the devices you use to stream from and Chromecast are on the same Wi-Fi network and bandwidth (2.4GHz or 5GHz) for an easier and more reliable streaming experience.

      You may contact our support team for your support needs. We'd be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have about Chromecast by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Great tool for projecting to TV

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Pros: Great tool for projecting your Google chrome computer browser onto you TV (non-smart TV's). Wirelessly Cons: Most new TV's (are smart TV), and there is many other builtin options on these types of TV's, where you don't need this device . Only projects the google browser (1 tab) at a time. Price for this item is very high, for the little features received. Setup is way to many steps, if you don't have a google account.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
