I think Google does great thing with their Chromecast product. They are easy to use and stream with ease. You get really get something as cheap as this that works as well as it does. Just know it doesn't come with a remote. Your phone or tablet etc. with the Google program is your remote.

Easy to Use; good sound quality; Good Value

My daughter showed me her Chromecast a year and and it was interesting. Bought one to try and love it. The ability to transfer images, videos, etc from your phone/tablet/computer is an amazing thing and especially makes watching you tube videos enjoyable.

I bought this a few weeks ago and am really happy with the purchase. It was simple to set up and easy to use.

The original Google Chromecast was introduced in 2013 and was an inexpensive and convenient way to stream content to your TV. The Chromecast 2 followed in 2015 and enjoyed a rather long shelf life.

I bought one of these to use with my smart TV so that I could stream Disney Life, however we're now using instead of the smart features as it's much smoother. Have also bought a second one for my daughters bedroom.
