What's great about it: Very easy to install
What's not so great: Need more apps in iOS compatible
Impeccable package contents. Very simple to install. Ideally, you will have an available USB port, to avoid adding a power cable. I just wish I could cast more applications from my iphone. However, it is great to cast from a laptop; be aware: not compatible with Windows XP.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: Contrast
The TV is OK as it is, just a simple TV. For what I read in several reviews of "smart TVs", TV apps and control are poorly designed and just add cost to the TV. Better purchase a known reliable and simple TV and connect it to the internet with reliable equipment: I am using it with Roku and Chromcast. I also have it connected to a simple HD antenna; no need for expensive cable or satellite services!
This product has... Easy to set up, Great value and features for the price, Right number of connections, Easy to use remote control
About me... Casual viewer, Love to stream movies
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does Chromecast increase data usage on cellular Wi-Fi?

I use a cellular carrier for my home Wi-Fi network. If I cast content already on my tablet, will this use any of my data allowance?
It should not, because you are casting through your wifi home network.
