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.

    I have the 1st Generation and this Chromecast. The connection is improved. It works very well with the casting from the computer, phone, or another device.

    Absolutely love the chromecast... I've owned every gen so far... I wish they kept the magnet on thr back of the strip but other than that the design is great and so also is the functionality.

    I would have given 5 stars but I can't get it to play the sound with my sister's I-phone, but it does show the picture. It works just fine with my Samsung Galaxy Android phone giving me both picture and sound.

      Hi unclerichi, thanks for sharing a review to let us know that you’re having an issue casting from your sister’s iPhone to your TV over Chromecast.

      Some cast-enabled apps may request location permissions and may not be able to cast if location permissions are not granted. We suggest trying the following steps that may clear this issue out:
      - Make sure that the iPhone is updated with the latest iOS version.
      - Check if the Home app is up to date.
      - Make sure the mobile device you are using to cast is on the same Wi-Fi network as your Chromecast.
      - Open a Chromecast-enabled app.
      - If it requires location permissions, tap Yes.
      - In the Chromecast-enabled app, tap the Cast button Inactive cast extension.
      - The Cast button isn't located in the same place on all Chromecast-enabled apps.
      - Tap the device you'd like to cast to.

      If unresolved, we can help you further if you can reach out to our dedicated team anytime here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Chromecast is such a great product to hook to your tv, my own problem with it is it tends to get to hot at times and I have to unplug it so it doesn't over heat.

    Are you an Amazon or Google fan?

    I have this as well as the Fire, and while I now wish that I had started with Google, my investments in Amazon preclude me from spending more on Google. You really need to stick to one or the other if you are looking to build a seamless, and cohesively connected smart home.

    I put this on a monitor and set it to show Google Photos as a screen saver. Now, I see all my pictures randomly displayed on the monitor. We leave it on all the time.

    Great Chromecast. If you plug the micro USB into a wall outlet and the HDMI into a Smart TV you can turn your TV on and off with Google Assistant on your phone or Google Home device.

    This isn’t the first time I’ve looked into getting a chromecast. Rather than buying a smart TV, this was my solution and more cost effective for me.

    The Chromecast may not be as important as it was before remote voice control, but its still nice for voice on and off as well as everything else it does.

    We use this as a secondary display option for a game on a tablet. Slight lag in playback on second screen but it doesn't matter much for what we are using it for.

    Bought this to cast my kids Oculus stream to my TV. No issues dropping the stream but beware there’s a slight delay (of course). I maybe should have went with the 4K model because the picture is so-so on my 4K TV.
