Worked well for a tv out on my porch. Had some buffering with wireless but that could be my beriOn wireless. Purchased this actually to use with Fios app. Thinking Verizon sold these the app would work. It does not. Not for all stations. Use Pluto quite a bit and this seems to work well. Unit gets very hot. All and all though not bad for the price I paid for it.

It's an excellent product for content sharing from all my devices to the TV. It supports Dual Band Internet and very fast.

My cable box allowed me to get Netflix but I decided to ditch cable and this device has being great at getting me access to Netflix, Hulu, ESPN, and even Spotify all with voice control from my Google Home mini. the only thing that worries me is it can get a little hot because it's always running.

Google Wi-Fi is a great system. I now have high speed coverage in my entire home that my single router could not provide.

We have an older Samsung flat screen that doesn't have the Smart technology built in. I love streaming Netflix and Hulu, but there's no reason to go out and buy a new television. The Chromecast Ultra is plug and play, and the "Ultra" means that I'm ready to stream 4K content whenever it becomes more accessible.

I planned on cutting the cord a while back, and chromecast ultra made it easy to do so! I can now stream the usual (HULU, Netlfix, and Amazon) through my phone or tablet right onto the big tv screen (with a soundbar and subwoofer)! Installation and setup is really easy, just follow the prompts after downloading the google home app.

The 4k quality is great and the casting has changed how my family and I interact. From casting photos of family events to a large group on our TV, to watching shows and movies, casting has been such a great way to share with loved ones. With iOs or Android, your content can easily be casted to this device.

I have been using the original Google Chromecast for years and have absolutely loved it. I recently purchased a 4K TV and wanted the Chromecast to match. There is a noticeable difference in picture quality and processor speed with the new Chromecast Ultra. Very easy to set up and use. I would recommend for anyone who has a 4K TV.

I got one previously for my girlfriend to watch me play on my Oculus Quest and then after they we had a party where everyone there wanted to play with the Quest so I went and bought myself another one so that everyone would be able to see what’s going on in the headset! Overall fun experience!
