    Great product. Use it for my conference room and it works well for simple presentation casting or zoom calls.

    The j5create ScreenCast 4K works shockingly well. I honestly wasn't sure what to expect from it, since most of my experience with Miracast has been what's been built into TVs, and those experiences haven't been great. But the ScreenCast has been really quite good. Once setup, PC's have no issues finding the ScreenCast and mirroring to it. Latency is typically good, but I've run into a coupe of glitches here and there, but nothing major. The ScreenCast also supports Apple's AirPlay, and while it also works quite well, it isn't as convenient as what an Apple TV can provide. The biggest stumbling block is that with an Apple TV, if setup properly, any Apple device in range can stream to it without having to be on the same WiFi network. With the ScreenCast, an Apple device must either be on the same WiFi network as the ScreenCast, or connected directly to the ScreenCast's WiFi network in order to stream to it (PC's can stream to it without having to be on the same WiFi network). This isn't a deal breaker by any means, and for the vast majority of people it probably doesn't matter, but just something to be aware of. Finally, it also supports Google Cast, and it works just as well as any other Google Cast device - which is to say not great. Casting a browser tab or a Youtube video works just fine, but mirroring the entire screen of a computer is not great. It's good in a pinch, if the computer you're using doesn't support Miracast or AirPlay, but otherwise it's not even worth turning that capability on (and it's telling, that out of the box, Google Cast isn't even enabled).

    Simple casting - NOT compatible with Meta Quest 3

    This appears to be a simple and straight forward screen casting solution and supports several formats. But it does not work with Meta Quest 3 casting, despite allegedly supporting chromecast. It does support screen mirroring from iOS devices, with some drop off in quality due to compression.

    Overall this does what you want - casts your pc or mobile device to a monitor or TV wirelessly. Getting it set up to do so is straightforward, but ensuring it stays connected has been an exercise in futility. I use it for my work, extending the screen of my laptop to my (brand new) monitor. I can't be any closer to the device, as everything is on the same desk, and yet periodically throughout the day it will suddenly lose the connection. When it does I get a green screen, where I then have to unplug the device, plug it back in, and reconnect. If you don't mind periodic frustrations like that, then this is right up your alley, but for $80 I was expecting better.

    Wanted to cast my phone direct to TV without an internet subscription. I would rank the experience about 80% successful. Some of the TV/ Movie apps have glitches and bugs, I'm sure my new phone does too. I would say this unit is well worth the money.

    Following the instructions, setup was as easy as it should be. Tried casting from Samsung, iPhone, iPad, windows & macOS. It worked perfectly fine. However without internet connection, I can't seem to get the Google pixel to cast. Still 5*

    This is working fine with screen mirroring both Windows and Mac laptops but the maximum resolution is only 4K@30 which is listed nowhere in the specs. We are using it at 1080@60 instead so its not laggy.

    Works, but with significant signal delay

    Does what it's supposed to, but with a significant signal delay (which was not indicated on the box). I'd thought that by having a device with a dedicated receiver, this would minimize the delay between my laptop and the TV, but there's a delay of around two seconds even though I'm within 5-10ft of the receiver. I wanted to use this with video calls so that I could display them on the big screen, but the delay makes that use impossible. Otherwise it works as intended. But the delay makes it not worth the money tbh.
