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.

    This device was easy to setup and works very well. Still learning all of it capabilities. It does not have its own remote like Roku, but app is good. It meets all my expectation.

    This one is actually excellent. I bought this because HBO Max was/is stupid and doesn't work with Roku, so i streamed from my tablet to the Chromecast. Works as advertised

    The new chromecast is easy to setup and the picture quality is great. I use them to stream Netflix and Youtube at home and also use them at work to cast digital signs. Will be buying additional ones as needed.

    My son wanted to buy this for his girlfriend who needed it to watch Netflix. The installation was easy and the streaming is great. Unfortunately, he is now spending more time with her than at our house.

    I have owned so far 6 Google Chromecasts since it first came out (Everyone still works). My wife enjoys her cooking and baking shows and news casting from her Ipad mini to our TVs everyday. I myself prefer to cast music from my phone, using my own library of music and available apps, ie: Google Music Play or Spotify etc. Quality of picture and music is really superb. Imagine the big screen with high resolution display and watching and listening whatever we want (Youtube media etc.) from around the world is wonderful after a tired day of work.

    I like it because you can do everything with your phone and even send apps that Roku doesn’t support but I’m old school and I like to have a remote control. Your cell phone or iPad are your control. Is cheaper than buying a new tv. Easy to connect to tv.

    If I would have known how cool this little device was, I would have bought it long ago! Super easy to install. GREAT graphics on "standby" mode (which is a bummer because I usually try to turn my TV off when not in use to save energy, but I want to leave it on ALL THE TIME because it's like I'm living in a museum!). Very easy to use and user friendly app. Also, I "curbside" ordered this from my local BestBuy and it was ready within the hour....good thing because my kids wanted to cast from their new Oculus and now we can all experience the cool VR experience when we're not watching the beautiful images.

    Very easy to set up and use. Great for a basement or garage TV, and any TV that is not a smart TV. Also really helpful when traveling. Great way to stream online content onto a TV.

    Turned my old non smart TV into a smart TV. This has been great and saved me a lot of money since I didn't need to by a new TV to watch my programs. It is a little clunkier than I expected when trying to connect to various programs.

    This product was super easy to setup. I wish it weren't necessary, but Motorola decided they weren't going to make it easy to cast directly to my Smart TVs. The picture quality is excellent.

    When you're already well into the Google ecosystem, this makes perfect sense. And honestly, even if you aren't - I'd say (after testing all of them) this is the best of these streamer products. I like casting from my phone but didn't like how it was the only way on previous Chromecasts but this is much improved with a remote and native apps. Stop using your sluggish TV menu or ad-filled other guys and just get a device that shows you content that you watch! It doesn't even focus on apps much, when you search it's on every service you have. Just buy it.

    These days, we all wish Google would improve the vast majority of their products Thankfully, the 3rd generation of the chromecast has way better connectivity than the last. Compared to the 2nd generation, this latest model keeps it word when it comes to an easy set up. My only two complaints that I with chromecast had the capabilities to do would be connecting to audio via bluetooth and a better picture to display. Quality vs an Apple TV (4th/5th gen) for example, is noticeable from a standpoint. All in all, if you're looking for something affordable to cast videos, music, and pictures to, then this is the device that is enjoyed but everyone, and great for each tv in your home.
