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 summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

      Hi Lilac,

      Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear that you had a compatibility issue. To enjoy streaming in 4K resolution with your Chromecast Ultra, you would need to have a TV that also offers 4K resolution. But as long as your TV has an HDMI port, it should work.

      If it doesn't work at all, we'd like to know more so we can help you enjoy your Chromecast Ultra. Please reach out to our customer support here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/contactflow for us to have a closer look. madebygoogle
