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.

    The Chromecast makes streaming from my smart phones a piece of cake. Super convenient when you want to show photos too. I used it to cast photos from my vacation to my mom and dads tv. Made sharing them a lot easier

    I like the speed this device reaches thanks to the cable for network, instead of wireless.

    Easy to use. If you don’t have that great of internet you can opt for the cheaper version as it won’t stream 4K but an awesome addition to the older gen smart tv that we have

    This works great and quickly, image is great too. My only complaint is there is no specific app or remote control. You stream off your phone which works mostly as designed.

    I purchased this because I wanted to cut the chord, I still have plenty of website subscriptions that do not have apps and with this device you can cast anything from your computer straight to the TV. Awesome product.

    With YouTube TV now available and Chromecast being the only option, I bought one for our household. I am extremely happy with it and exclusively use it for casting not just YouTube TV, but HBO Go, Netflix, YouTube, and more.

    Futureproof 4K Casting

    Chromecast Ultra supports both HDR10 and Dolby Vision so in the future it would be able to cast 4K HDR content regardless of the codec. Apple TV 4K also supports both but costs $180. I would buy this over Roku since a lot of TVs come with Roku already built in.

    The ease and use of this is great. Also, an amazing value. My only complaint is that it does need it's own power source. Which means it won't turn off with your TV.

    I recently purchased a 4K TV and wanted to stream it on 4K resolution. Black Friday deal brought the price down. Easy install since this is the third Chromecast I own. Works like a charm.

    This is just as good as the original Chromecast, but now with 4K, HDR, and Dolby support. Can't go wrong with this one, especially if you have Google Assistant speakers around which can easily control this one.

    I recently dumped cable and only kept internet. They gave me their streaming box for free and I found it to be a pain to use. I could not access Disney+ or most of my digital library (I use VUDU and Movies Anywhere). I could get more of my content on the streaming app on my phone, so it was odd it didn't completely transfer to the box. Their stream app wasn't an app on their box either, it was I guess integrated into the whole interface. I love how I can use my phone to cast whatever I want to watch. The cable company box had a user guide that wasn't exactly user friendly, was quirky to use and often just wouldn't work. The Chromecast Ultra was a bit of a pain to connect to wifi as it all updated then kept saying it couldn't connect. Just unplugged everything and reconnected and no issues since.
