    [Employee of bestbuy] Definitely worth the purchase! I get so much better quality and no latency than just streaming onto the chromecast directly. Very easy to connect to and set up on any device

    I've bought a couple of these for my office to put in different TVs and it works good and I do not get any lags or frozen screen. It's nice that you can jus plug in the USB to the back of the TV

    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.

    The j5create ScreenCast Wireless Display Adapter is easy to set up and use, and it works! I love that it works with any phone or device with a 3.5mm jack, and it's easy to connect to my home Wi-Fi. The setup instructions were easy to follow. The picture quality and sound were very good.

    This has allowed me to wirelessly display both video and audio from my laptop to any TV. This has helped greatly since I present in many different locations and cannot always set up close enough to the display.

    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.

    Got this to link wireless link my iPad and Microsoft Laptop to TV. I was extremely surprised how effortless this was and the quality is second to none. Not only can you share the screen from your device to the TV, the sound playing on your device is also transmitted. Got this for my conference meetings with clients. Yes, you can connect to the internet and browse while also using the WIFI to broadcast to the TV. The device is powered by the USB of the TV. No need for a separate plug in adapter. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase being exactly what I needed.

    I purchased this item in order to use my TV from my celk phone. It worked great for about two weeks when it went bad and this is the replacement. I'm hoping it works longer than the first one.

    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.
