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.

Works great on our main TV. The update was definitely worth it. Our older chrome-cast doesn't work nearly as well as this newer model.

This is a great option for the google assistant smart home, as you can control chrome cast devices with your voice. The only downside to this device is that you need a parent device to control it, as it does not come with a remote.

Not super happy with this reinvention. The old device did not require an independent power source and seemed to have a lot fewer glitches and problems. We needed that option elsewhere so we needed a second device but I’m not really a fan of this model. If you can find/use an older model I recommend it. I’d even recommend looking for a used one as they really don’t seem to get much wear or tear hanging from the back of a TV.

Great for mirroring Oculus Quest VR or streaming

We use this Chromecast for mirroring our Oculus Quest 2 VR to the TV so those in the room can see what the player is seeing.
It increases the level of fun as you can get an idea of what the player is experiencing while you watch them flail around playing BeatSaber or trying to stay upright while experiencing a roller coaster. We also stream music from our phones through this to the audio system that this Chromecast is plugged into, allows us to enjoy music throughout the house.
