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.

    Great to Replace Awful Cable or Satellite

    This I found to be the easiest and least expensive than cable or satellite tv. I look forward to this product being even more improved. Hopefully this great idea crushes or puts cable or satellite out of business, or, at the very least, reduce their cost if their service and be more competitive.

    My four-old can tell our Home mini to play a video and it'll come up on the TV or the other screen we have a 2nd one plugged into. Let's you cast from our phones to play various media apps. Shipping was quick and works right out of the box with little setup on the Google home app.

    This has been a fun addition to my older (not smart) TV. Not only does it handle casting from Android devices it also handles Windows casting (via Goodle Chrome) better than the TV's that have it built in.

    If you use any streaming service chrome cast is the way to go! Don't worry about getting a smart TV to play your Netflix just cast it from your phone and then your phone is your remote! I have one at each of my TV's its worth every penny. I've had my first one for two years and I would not go without one now.

    Had the ORIGINAL Chromecast (H2G242) and it finally funked-out on me. Needed an upgrade quickly with HBO Max since you can't get it on Amazon FireStick. This Chromecast works SO much better and I love the reach it has with my wireless network. And the price was great, too!

    I wish it had apps, you can get a fire TV stick for the same price and also do casting with that plus have apps on it. HOWEVER, certain casting options only find my Chromecast, and not any other casting devices like my smart TV or my fire TV stick, so the chromecast definitely comes in clutch at times and is a great backup

    Got this for my uncle, as he had Netflix on his phone, but not his TV... Best gift ever, like a kid on Christmas, I set it up for him, and showed him how to use it, and he moves it in between rooms to watch his shows.

    There is nothing on YouTube that I now watch on my PC and live streaming the same. All gets easily transferred to my large flat screen. Even the price was low. Best bargain in a long time! Highly recommended. Note: setup is not a cinch, but worth the time and effort.

    He just got Disney plus and wanted to put on his 60 inch flat screen but had no way of putting it on there. So I saw the broadcast and knew this was how I was going to make it happen. He set it up super quick and got Disney plus on his tv and it has been bugging my mom ever since lol.

    Hooked this up to the wall-mounted TV in my apartment, with the HDMI and USB port facing the wall. The cables are flexible enough with about 1 inch clearance to bend thru. And wifi is still good! If you don't have a smart tv, highly recommended especially those who are trying to cord-cut cable.

    got a pair of these on sale. great way to update an older tv that does not have smart capability but hdmi inputs. we've also cut the cable, so this has allowed us to stream some of the other services we watch through a chrome browser to any tv. also, no need to go looking for a remote anymore.

    Stream content from your device to the largest screen in the room with Google Chromecast. It plugs into any television with an HDMI port, making it easy to cast images and audio to a format everyone can enjoy. Google Chromecast works with a variety of laptops as well as Apple and Android devices.

    The media player has a really simple setup using the Google home app. I don't use the media player for Google TV but to stream entertainment from my phone and laptop. This has to be one of the best add-ons to any smart TV.

    I wanted to stream music in the garage. Having an amplifier and speakers lying around I bought this to play Pandora and Spotify. Later if I want I can connect a TV out there and stream movies. Very happy with the end result. Cheap way to utilize existing equipment.

    Fantastic device to mirror your videos and media from your tablet or phone. This was gifted to a friend who didnt want to buy a new flat screen and she didnt want to learn a new remote and system, so for her birthday, I gave her this product and she is really happy as she didnt have to learn anything new and didnt have to spend money on a new TV.

    I was leary about this product working well with my t.v., phone and other devices. I discovered it works great and would definitely recommend this to those wanting to enlarge their small picture on their phone to a t.v. screen for viewing at the best quality.

    If your tv doesn’t have all the necessary apps for streaming, this is a great accessory to have. Also easier to navigate through apps on your mobile device and simply cast it rather than navigate on your tv screen.
