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.

    Easy to set up. Plug and play. Not sure if image quality is directly related to internet connection, app use, or what, but streaming movie from iPhone was grainy.

    Mostly fine but dropping from wi-fi sometimes

    Works fine most of the time but it drops from wi-fi occasionally, which is extremely annoying. Lack of a reset button makes this more annoying. But overall I'm happy when it works. It seems this problem is not uncommon among chromecast users and I can 100% rule out my wi-fi problem. I also have a Google Home with the same issue. Compared to the frustration that Google Home caused me, this chromecast is okay. But I won't choose Google products in the future. I can't believe they don't have a better solution to this.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi smartleeshore,

      Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We're sorry to hear that you're encountering some connection issues with your Chromecast.

      Chromecast has a reset button beside the power adapter port. Please see this link for more info on how to reset the Chromecast: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654?hl=en

      There are some factors that may affect Chromecast performance during casting. You can try these troubleshooting steps:
      - Toggle Wi-Fi off/on your phone.
      - Exit any battery-draining applications that are running on the background.
      - Turn off power saving mode on your device.
      - Decrease the distance between the TV, casting device (phone/tablet/computer), and Wi-Fi router. The distance should be less than 15-20 feet (5-6 meters) apart, ideally within the same room.
      - Keep your phone’s operating system up to date.
      - Unplug both the Chromecast and the router from the power outlet and leave it for at least 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, plug it back in, and wait for it to completely reboot.

      We’re here to help, please feel free to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/contactflow madebygoogle
