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 Google-Chromecast streaming media player is one of the best on the market. It provides crystal clear pictures and sounds, in high definition quality video and audio, at a great price.

    The chromecast is a great add on for the person wanting to stream media to they're tv from any device that's connected to home network. I use mine for connecting to my iPhone, iPad or desktop. Fast and easy setup as well as operating.

    This device is very simple, but it does work as advertised. It has issues when you pause/resume content -- I tried streaming from multiple platforms & experienced the same issue. Another annoyance... it plays the first 10-15 seconds of content in very low quality. I would personally prefer that it buffer longer, then play full quality content.

    The casting from mobile to tv is fast and also integrates well with the google mini. The only concern was no remote and had to use the mobile app all the time but with google mini, you can control it verbally now.

    Very user friendly. The setting instructions are very easy to follow. Easy to use and to interact with, you only need a reliable internet connection for the chromcast and the device that you are casting from to work perfectly.

    I purchased this to have an extra for my google stadia account. This runs a little hot but does not hinder functionality. Very responsive and has a good range for wireless connectivity to wifi.

    Fairly easy setup and works great. Only problem is that our TV only has two HDMI plugs. Roku and satellite occupy those two. But I can disconnect Roku and plug in the Chromecast.

    I purchased this because my internet is not the best. The ultra chromecast while still not perfect on my network works a lot more smoothly than the regular chromecast did. Picture quality also appears to be crisper. Also have less issues with sound being out of sync with pictures.

    The app is easy enough. Set up is a breeze. Nothing not to like. Have them on all my t.v's. Makes it easier if friends come over and want to show you something you can just cast it to any tv. Nice.

    The Chromecast worked the first time I set it up ... awesome easy-to-follow directions that talked me through the process, Phew! For once, I did NOT have to call my Son to have him set-up (or fix) an electronic piece.

    Does what it’s supposed to. Streames internet without dedicated remote. Works with I phone or Android phones. Must install chromcast app on your phone then cast or mirror to the tv. Seems to only work if using the chromcast app.
