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.

    I purchased the Chromecast to cast my Oculus to my TV. This works perfectly and SUPER EASY to setup. Now everyone can see what is happening when playing with my Oculus VR.

    My only complaint is needing to be in the chrome browser to cast something. Apple tv lets you mirror your phone, whatever is on the screen. Been using this to stream from a computer to a tv but must use Google Chrome web browser. Other than that, does what I need.

    Only got this to connect the Oculus Quest to the TV. Works great super easy to setup. Not really interested in the other features since I have Xfinity and the TV box already has those features anyway.

    Satellite will be out for a little while since we got a new roof so I picked this up online. It works most of the time, occasionally a little buggy but can't guarantee that's not the fault of the streams themselves. Occasionally isn't available to connect to so I have to reboot it.

    I primarily purchased this to use with my Google Home products so that I can ask Google to turn on the tv or to play music on the tv. It’s great when I do use it for it’s primary purpose.

    I have the first generation of Chromecast that I bought when it first came out. This third generation has the same good quality plus it now connects to your HDMI port instead of the USB.

    Have these on all my tvs. It’s a nice streamline to be able to display apps or streaming services on the TVs . I know you can access those through smart hubs etc but doing it through phone is so much faster

    This is my favorite stream to TV device. Works with any phone/tablet without having to download extra apps. This is the second one I’ve purchased and I’ve now converted at least 5 other people onto it!

    Good value; functional

    I bought this because I wanted to watch something that was not available on Roku. The Chromecast is functional but does not perform as well as Roku. The rewind/fast forward feature is very primitive and does not allow much control. As far as I have been able to determine, if you are watching a replay of something and leave it before you finish, Chromecast will not return you to the point where you left off. You have to start over. Advancing to the stopping point is difficult because of the problematic fast forward feature. "Casting" to the TV works better when you select full screen along with the "optimize" feature. Unfortunately, some content from some sources will not optimize, in which case you get inferior picture quality. But the device does its basic job of allowing you to project video from a device to a TV screen. It also allows you to do this from sources, such as web sites, which would not be available on Roku.

    My Samsung smart TV was manufactured in 2015 and wasn't compatible with YouTube TV so I purchased the Chrome Cast and I'm very happy with my pitched. It was very easy to install and set up. So thumbs up from me!

    This is the answer to cable tv. Just internet and this, plus an antennae and you're all set. Just remember that when it doesn't work, UNPLUG IT AND WAIT 45 SECONDS AND PLUG IT BACK IN.. VIOLA!!

    This is a replacement from our 1st gen chromecast. Much faster and better quality streaming videos because of the 5G internet speed. Well worth the upgrade. Highly recommend it.

    This device is so much cheaper than paying for Cox cable, we get most all the regular local channels. We still have to have external internet. This device gives you a lot choices of what most people like to watch.

    You can't go wrong with a chromecast, its the best value and the easiest to use than any other streaming media device. Give life to your dumb tv with this and make it smart. Have one on every tv in my house.

    I haven't use it yet. Purchased for spare. Had 2 for years but never failed. Very convenience to transmit video from phones or tablets to tv. Do recommend it for any tv not android.

    Great product, good price, and easy to use. At first I wish I purchased another color but now that I have it I realize the color doesn’t matter because it’s behind the TV so it’s not seen.
