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.

    I bought this gizmo for my wife's Tv because the Amazon Fire was not working anymore. I did some reasearch before I purchased it and has been great.

    The included Ethernet/power adapter is great! It's always a hit and miss. I'm sure updates will improve the functionality in time. Save the money- buy an Nvidia Shield.

    I have a chromecast on every TV, including all the Smart TVs I have in the house. They work better than any built in smart TV streaming.

    Very easy to set-up and use. I've had a few issues as sometimes something happens and the color goes weird, so I then unplug/replug and all is good again. Doesn't happen often but noticeable. Otherwise great product

    I enjoy using the Chromecast to connect my phone and tablet to the TV. It's easy to install and then cast devices to view YouTube videos on the TV.

    Much better than airplay, no lag or any issues. I got this to cast 4k video + dolby digital plus. Little did i know vudu does not allow 4k playing on pcs, so have nothing to cast. But the chrome cast is cool

    Works great for Stadia. While it can be used for Netflix and other steaming, I prefer to use my Roku due to it having a controller.

    Casting from my laptop to a 65" TV is wonderful. I can type and navigate faster on my laptop than I can on my TV, and then am able to cast anything I want to the TV for sharing or closer examination.
