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.

Just what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to be able to cast onto my older TV and this does the trick. It's a little slow at times but not to the point where it's frustrating.
I would recommend this to a friendPretty Snazzy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty snazzy. I would give it five stars if every single media app on my Android Pixel phone casted easily. Some require a little hoop jumping. Yes, that's the app developers' faults, but still.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Already had an older version of this product but needed one for my second TV. Comparing the two it seems that the new one is somewhat more stable.

Great to cast what it is on the phone
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wish it had a remote to control some of the features. It does what it is supposed to, but it is not what I thought it would be.

Posted .Hi AbAlv, thanks for sharing your insights. We’re sorry for any confusion you may have had with your Chromecast.
Chromecast was designed to use your mobile phone as your remote control. And if you´re willing to try, you can still watch your favorite shows on your TV by either casting it with your preferred cast-enabled streaming apps like Netflix, which will have a ¨Cast¨ button within the app, or by mirroring what you see on your mobile phone to your TV. Here's how:
- Get started by installing your preferred app on your Android or tablet device. To turn on microphone permissions on your Android device, tap Settings >
Scroll down and tap Apps > and then Google Play Services > and then Permissions. Look for "Microphone" and slide the slider On.
- Cast your screen from your Android device. Make sure your mobile phone or tablet is on the same Wi-Fi network as your Chromecast device. Open the Google Home app > tap the device you want to cast your screen to > tap Cast my screen > and then Cast screen.
However, if you still prefer having a physical remote control, then we highly recommend checking out the newer Chromecast with Google TV, which comes with an interactive Voice Remote. You can learn more about it here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/3046409
If you have any questions, feel free to reach us out here and we’d be happy to help: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp
good value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is actually my 2nd Chromecast. This has made watching tv something to look forward to for once and not cost an arm and a leg.
I would recommend this to a friendSmartify a Dumb TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Make any affordable TV into a smart tv. Cast from your laptop or phone. I use it for the beach body app and and streaming to all my TVs.
I would recommend this to a friendEasy to setup and use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got this to watch on-line streamed worship services from our church. Works very well for that, no issues. Only concern is that Google is involved - and they track everything! I don't trust Google.
I would recommend this to a friendBroadcast content wirelessly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great wireless solution to cast your media. It works similarly to Amazon's Firestick, but you can use your phone or Google Home as the content source.
I would recommend this to a friendWish BB offered the white one
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the product. Just would have been nice if BestBuy offered the chrome cast in white. I purchased at BestBuy because of my points. Otherwise I would have bought the white one elsewhere.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for use with Oculus Quest
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this to cast the Oculus Quest screen to the TV so that others in the room can enjoy what you are playing. There is some delay and stalling of the video, but if you turn the resolution down it becomes less of an issue.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Connectivity
Works oh for what I need it for.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product when it stays connected. The picture takes a little while to clear up. Once the picture clears it's all good until it looses the connection.
I would recommend this to a friend Convenient
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter got this so we could watch Netflix shows without having to hook up her laptop every time. Works well and is convenient.
