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.

    This is the beginning of the end of cable and satellite tv. Just cast anything from your phone. Sure your phone takes a few seconds to buffer then load the shows, but the image quality is UHD and i liked trashing my remotes cause I use the phone now instead. Less junk on the nightstand. Get one.

    I love to stream from my tiny smartphone to a nice big TV, and this does just that in crispy 4k! Wish Google released an updated version though to help improve latency. But then again, it might be my home WiFi. Still something I would pick up for myself, my family, and my friends!

    I bought this gift for my son, as he had just bought a new TV for himself, and with the up rise of streaming content I just knew, that it would have to support 4k Resolution. With this the picture is great and is flawless though the cord could be longer to reach the outlet its great all around.

    Bought this item open box at a great price. Easy to install. If I had to say anything negative, you need an outlet for it to work. Luckily, with all my items already hooked up and wall outlets pretty much taken, I had one outlet left. Works great!!!

    The ultra chrome cast is a great device to get the most out of 4k compatible apps. The apps run very smooth from my ipad to my 70 inch Samsung. If you are casting onto a TV 55 inches and below, there isn't much of a difference between the ultra chromecase and the standard one. A great product and I am very happy with how it performs.

    I didnt know how much an upgrade from the 2nd gen chromecast this would be. Still took a chance and went ahead with the purchase. Turns out its pretty slick. Im getting extremely good quality on my 4K tv. Buffering speed IS better. No connectivity problem either (faced a few of that with earlier versions)

    Works well with my Google home mini! I got the Google home mini and the Chromecast Ultra as a gift for my birthday and so far I'm satisfied. The only thing I haven't figured out (if it's even possible) is how to turn on and off the tv with my Google home mini which would be convenient.
