Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Chromecast Ultra's ease of use, excellent picture quality, and impressive 4K streaming capabilities. Many appreciate its straightforward setup and generally positive performance. However, some users mention the relatively high price point and the lack of a dedicated remote control as drawbacks. A few also noted occasional lag or heat issues.

    Coming from a previous generation Chromecast I was excited to get the 4K one. The connection alone is amazing. The other one I had would randomly disconnect from the internet, and I assumed it was my internet. I haven't had this one for too long, but I have not had any problems with it.

    I was told by the Best Buy salesman that it uses the USB port in the TV for power but it actually comes with an AC plug. So i tried using the USB port on the TV but the message on the TV was that it could not stream 4K that way. So make sure you have enough outlets nearby to power it, the TV, the soundbar, the DVR, etc..

    Having a smart TV and an Xbox One we really didn't have a need to the Chromecast.......Untill the Mrs wanted to be able to watch HD Pac12 network on the big screen. Did some research and casting to a chrome cast turned out to be the only possibility. We've used it a few times not and it was worked just fine.

    I had it initially hooked up via HDMI cable to my Yamaha receiver. Couldn't get it to set up. Had to call Chromecast tech support. What we had to do was hook it directly via HDMI into my TV. Then do a factory reboot and it casts fine. I'm going to see that since it's casting now that I can change it back to the HDMI to my receiver.
