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 price was competitive. The chromecast worked without any issues. It is connected to surround sound receiver and used to show movies on television.

    Got this to try out streaming from phone. I purhcased this along with a Fire Stick and Apple TV. I would go with the Fire Stick. Lack of remote for this device wasn't ideal.

    I wasn’t aware that this was the newer generation until I brought it home. These are great to pair with the Google Home devices because you’re able to control your TV through them.

    I was skeptical about getting this again especially since it didn't seem like what I wanted, but I'm glad I did and it was a great choice for what I was looking for

    When I was trying to decide which smart home platform to use, Google Home or Alexa, I bought this Chromecast. To be honest, I tried one of these before over a year ago and didn’t like it then and don’t like it now. First off, I personally think the design is dorky. It’s round and just hangs there, what a goofy design. Second, the setup process is a pain. Not hard or difficult, just a pain. Third, it just doesn’t work that well. The casting part requires a very strong internet signal to cast a PowerPoint presentation on your laptop to a big screen tv. Just not a big fan of this and cannot bring myself to recommend it.

    Not sure why I waited so long to buy one of these. I had two older tvs to where this was the perfect set up. Love the ability to cast my screen.

    I had a first-generation model that finally quit connecting after a few years of Bluetooth phone software updates. The latest version works perfectly!

    I have different TVs and most them are smart TVs, but it take a long time to connect to the wifi. Google Chrome is the one you can depend on.

    This device works great to cast Netflix to my tv. It also works well to cast just about anything (Youtube, pictures, newscasts, etc). I highly recommend this!

    Works smoothly for casting from Surface Pro 3 laptop. Good solution. A few live-stream events have audio glitches but I think that's them and not the device.

    Google chromecast is an excellent way to make a smart tv out of a standard tv - just be confident in your wifi connection, because it can get dicey. Upgrade to the latest version with a lan port for absolute connectivity.

    Got this for grandma, mainly for showing her our pictures on our android phones on her tv so she could see them better. Also works for our wayward apple family members.

    It is an amazing small device for this lower price. We like to use it to cast from a small smartphone with a small screen to a huge TV screen.

    I pick up HBO go & Netflix at the shore, which is nice cause we don’t have premium channels there. We do have premium at home so that is why we can see it at the shore.

    This is my second Chromecast purchase. Chose it over Apple TV and I have no regrets. Pros: 1. Cast any content from any phone onto your TV 2. Plug and play Cons: 1. None!
