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 didn't know what I was missing by not picking up this Chromecast Ultra. It was so easy to setup and has opened up a world of new services to watch.

    I could not connect my Chromebook to my Samsung Q60. It supported AirPlay for my MacBook Air but not Chromecast. This did the trick and I love that it is 4K.

    While I have a smart tv that already has many of the same apps on it, this makes it so easy to stream things from my computer and phone that the tv can't do, specifically HBO Go.

    I've had a Chromecast before and enjoyed it. Figured I'd upgrade with my new tv and the eventual 4k streaming. As long as you have a good internet connection.

    This is a great product but I wished it had a menu like the firestick where you can browse with a remote. With the chromecast you need to use your phone or other device.

    Set up was a little rough. Google customer service advised me to download the latest version of Apple IoS and that solved it. No lag in streaming. Works very well.

    I don't have a 4k TV yet so I can't say anything about that but the 1080p quality is great. I can easily stream from my phone apps to the TV without a hassle.

    Bought this to replace my old non-4k chromecast. The ethernet connection helps speed up casting connections and makes casting more stable.

    Super easy to set up and great channel choices. I was skeptical, but was proven wrong. My children love it and have enjoyed watching their phones on the tv.
