Enjoy a world of entertainment with Google Chromecast. Just connect to your HDTV's HDMI interface and your home Wi-Fi network to get started. You can stream your favorite apps from your compatible phone, tablet or laptop, plus use your phone as a remote to search, play and pause content.

Where have you been all my life!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought 3 of these and plan on buying more as gifts. As an old movie buff, this was the perfect solution to watch my old movies and shows in all rooms of the house. You can even set it up to stream to 2 TV's at once, although I usually just stream a comp. and tablet at the same times. Set-Up was a Snap. Works best with Google Chrome. Had to exchange one that I believe had a glitch.
Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to watch their comp., tablet or phone screen on their TV!

Bset Value for the $$$

Verified Purchase:Yes
Local B.,Buy was out of stock so I had to go to about 50 Miles out of town for pick up as I needed this monitor for a Monday morning event.
This monitor rivals my $600.00 24" Dell Ultra! This was for a Triple Monitor set up, I trade stocks and options. If you know anything about trading options on-line, you know that Clarity and Definition are Key on a 23" monitor. This monitor filled the bill "Hands Down"
Extremely pleased with this purchase all around.

Can't beat this tablet for the price!

Wanted a tablet to surf the web, e-mail, watch movies etc. So Far so good. I'm pretty tech savvy and was looking for an entry level to learn the ins and outs of the tablet craze. This pretty much stacks up with all the other more expensive tablets that I researched. Expected to "Buy Up" after getting use to a tablet, but I think I'll stick with this till something with dramatically new technology comes along. This is a Great Tablet For The Money. There are much better tablets out there, but if you just want to surf the net and e-mail and watch TV or Movies, you can't beat this one for the price.

Project photos, Web content and more from your mobile device to your HDTV with this Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini 2 SBWD60A01 wireless receiver, which features a USB interface for simple setup and supports Windows 8.1, Wi-Fi Miracast and Intel® WiDi.
 

I have an amazon fire tablet which does not support mirroring. I used a hack to download and gain access to google play store so I could use my chromecast however I am still unable to get the "cast to" icon with this tablet so, will this one work????

The Google "Home" app is what Google uses to Cast. There are other Casting apps on the play store, however I found them not as stable as the "Home" app.

Hope this helps

is this compatible with a verizon elipsis 8 tablet?

CHROMECAST
This works best with the Chrome Browser, but there are many apps that claim to cast to Chromecast. I tried a few and using Chrome proved the best w/no lag and no jitters.
If you have android, you have Chrome, if you have any other O/S, I'm sure your app store has a "Casting" app for your system, although Chrome will work on any O/S.
Hope this helps.

Screen opening apps i haven't chosen or locking up

When i turn on the tablet there is a portion of the screen that acts like it has a stylus or finger pressing repeatedly in that area. if there is any link, app, video playing near that section it will open, without my choosing, or in the case of videos will keep the progression button on the same spot causing the video to get stuck in a certain area, sometimes i turn the screen on and it immediately turns back off. Is there a fix for this, what can i do to correct the issue?
A "Master Reset" will usually solve most software issues. If that doesn't work I would contact Insignia tech support, could be a hardware problem Although, given the fact that Best Buy owns Insignia, you may want to go to Geek Squad.
Hope this helps
