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 purchased this back in November 2016. So far so good. No complaints. I think this will be the most affordable 4K HDR streaming device for TV

    Built-in VUDU app on the TV has documented issues. Casting from the VUDU app to this Chromecast has been a perfect solution.

    I have all three versions of the Chromecast. Gen 2 and ultra are similar in terms of speed. Get the ultra for 4k hdr only, if you don't have a 4k tv stick with the lower priced model

    I use Ultra to view my YouTube TV subscription and it works great. Tremendous quality picture/broadcast for it being a streaming device. Well worth to view 4K.

    This works great for 4K content otherwise there is no need to have this as it doesn't have any other new features from the previous Chromecast.
