    Product works as advertised, but difficult to get to function because of the crummy instructions. Almost returned the product but finally figured out how to set it up. Now it works fine.

    Overall this is a pretty decent product. There is some latency issues but not a major issue. I used this for a large meeting. Pretty decent for the money.

    After a bad experience using a Chromecast device with a Smart TV, the j5create ScreenCast Wireless Display Adapter was a pleasant surprise. I plugged it in, switched to the correct HDMI port on the TV, and then an instruction screen displayed. Connecting to the wireless display using Windows 11 was straightforward. It then becomes a second display under Windows. I highly recommend this as a screencasting adapter.

    This was easy to setup but when trying to display a movie it couldn’t handle it. Of you want to display pictures it works great.

    I wanted to be able to watch tv shows that are playing on my phone on my tv that’s not a smart tv. However, many streaming apps block being casted from the phone onto the tv. So this device would not do what I wanted. I ended up getting a roku, which works perfectly for that. If you’re just wanting to show your phone screen on your tv for other things, this would work fine. It’s easy to use.

    So at first, i was skeptical about thos device seeing that it was $50. Ive tried others & nothing good came from those tries. My phone has a USB "C" type connection but NO video output thru it. I tried this.....AND THEN THE WORLD CHANGED! It's not difficult AT ALL. Do this & that & it was right as rain. It even works in my van without problem. Thanks J5.

    Works well for short term use. there is a lag when casting from my MacBook, and it disconnects on its own, which is annoying. also, when connected to my iPad, the picture is too small.

    Works well. Tested with Android, Windows, and Mac. Wasn't always obvious for Airplay but works. Connect J5 to your Wifi for updates, and J5 provides its own WIFI for Mac users to AirPlay, and pass through to your Wifi!

    We are unable to get internet, or good internet, for our home and old-fashioned antenna isn't a good option either. So to watch any television we use this ScreenCast plug in and we can watch whatever we want from our phones. It's easy to connect to the TV and even easier to connect our phones. We definitely recommend this product.
