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.

    Works perfectly. Set up with Google Home in minutes. Unlike older models, this Chromecast supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi frequencies. Streams video and audio clearly and in real time.

    Since some apps are not available on my tv or fire stick, this makes a great companion for my Google pixel 3XL to watch all the content the industry has to offer.

    I got it for my dad so he can watch his church sermons on the TV. I showed him how to cast Facebook from his tablet and it was pretty easy for him. He loves it.

    Pretty handy. Casting softwares (in Addroid or IOS) are pretty stable. It also works well with Youtube apps, Neflix, or Chrome browser.

    I got this to upgrade a 1st gen chromecast, and was relieved that this one is fast, it connects with the devices faster than the other. The design of the 1st one though was better

    A favorite for the streaming dudes and gals. This thing only needs to be hooked up to your local network and the power is yours to stream all you want, music, videos, you name it. Your phone and you're in full control. Highly recommended.

    Installation is so uncomplicated. It lets you stream almost anything; I’ve been using it with Spotify, Netflix, the Just Dance app for my daughter, HBO NOW, everything from my iPhone or IPad.

    I own a Chrome cast and enjoyed the freedom it allows, so I purchased this as a gift and the recipient uses it on a regular basis as their TV is not a smart TV.

    I bought the Chromecast to cast my phone screen to my non-smart TV. The set up was very easy and I am very happy with the purchase at Best Buy as the delivery was very quick.

    Bought this because I own the older versions. I cut my cable provider and couldn’t be happier . It helps to have a high bandwidth connection but I still get quality picture from chrome cast apps.

    Chrome casts are a nice quick fix to a limited TV situation, as long as you have internet, power and an HDMI!
