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).

    Love Chromcast. Setup can be a bit tricky sometimes and I have had it need a reset once or twice but for the most part these are dependable little devices. These days most iPhone apps have a "cast" option if plays video, music, photos, etc. and the process of casting is dummyproof.

    Purchased this item prior to upgrading to AppleTV 4K. Not being airplay capable was an issue but even moreso, it became really frustrating casting sites like YouTube and others because my mobile device could not locate the device. The ChromeCast device had to be unplugged each time and reconnected prior to casting.

      Hi dnamerof,

      Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We're sorry to hear of the casting issue with your Chromecast.

      Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow that may be helpful in fixing the issue:
      - Check for possible congestion with your Wi-Fi network.
      - Check for possible interference as thick walls and other devices in your home may weaken Wi-Fi signal.
      - Bring your Chromecast closer to your router to get better signal reception from your router.
      - Restart your Chromecast.
      - Perform a factory data reset.

      Should you need further assistance, we'd be more than happy to improve your experience if you can contact us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    I have decided having a remote is better

    I say this may not be the best option for streaming due to it not having a remote and relying on your cell phone to operate the device. We bought this as it was the only method to stream the Facebook oculus rift to the tv screen. We still use the roku and firestick for streaming content.

    Bought this one as an extra for our old Chromecast (the first generation) which is still working but starting to act up. Great product and price! Didn’t like that the newer one needs to be plugged in at the outlet. Our original one powers directly through the TV. Other than that, very satisfied.
