Fantastic service & price

I'm loving Argos at the minute. Fast track is wonderful.
I already have a chromecast and love it, we've got one for each TV in our house. Recommend this and bought it for my aunt & brother-in-law (who had an all cast device) It is lots better than any other casting device. You can cast to it and close the app your casting with and it will keep playing you can even cast & leave the house and it will still play. If you have Netflix it is fantastic. We also have the amazon firestick which is ok and does the same but only perk is the film & TV direct but you have to pay for prime to fully benefit. I would highly recommend the Chromecast to anyone who wants to turn their TV into a smart TV. Really easy to set up but might take a while first time as it may need to update.
Also USB works direct into the TV.Read full review

Good, but some limitations

To be fair, this is a very good product for a very reasonable price. It's pretty easy to set up and does its job well, i.e. streaming tv programmes either via my browser or direct from the router. There are a few things that would make it even better though. I would be nice if more streaming services offered Chromecast support. This would avoid tying up my laptop when watching UKTV etc. Also, the Chromecast cannot directly cast things like photos from my computer without the use of third party software such as Plex.Read full review

Chromecast 2

Firstly , i was suprised how small it was less than 75 mm across.Set up was easy, but it did not work properly first time,so did a reset and all worked fine.Mainly using catchup tv,and streaming live and downloaded films from play.Broadband is not great ,but so far chromecast has worked well.Read full review

Easy as 1,2,3

Very easy to get up and running (used iPhone App for Now TV) and in Google Chrome mirroring symbol all good. Note for me would not work through an HDMI switch but plugged in direct all good.

Chromecast

Had a few issues setting up as it would not pair with my galaxy s6. I had to disconnect my phone from WiFi and reconnect then after that it worked. Streams perfectly but most impressive is it's ability to mirror movies with no interruption, just smooth video and sound. Good product.Read full review

Google Chromecast

The setup procedure should be easy and straightforward. Maybe I was unlucky but I found it very frustrating as I was continually unable to access the setup code. Eventually it all worked and is now working o.k. But my advice to all buyers is to plug it into the back of the TV and and wait a few minutes for everything to "warm up" and sort itself out before initiating the setup routine.Read full review

Good

Works most of the time but can be glitchy. Easy to set up and operate. Have streamed numerous movies with it. Sound comes and goes and has to be reconnected to get working again.

Great for Youtube

Its nice and small think there, but it have lots off limits. There is very limit third party free app you can use. You have to pay for all of them. I used just to watch youtube and its good for it.
