        • ShamelessBargains on 25/07/2014 - 15:19

          Yeah they look really good with noise cancelling and being in ear too. They are going for over $30 on ebay and with good reviews for $5 is still excellent buying!

        • edfrane on 25/07/2014 - 15:38

          FYI: They are not noise cancelling

        • RohBoat on 25/07/2014 - 18:33

          @ShamelessBargains: are they noise cancelling or just noise suppressing?

        • Jackson on 25/07/2014 - 22:25

          i think the technical term is 'suppressing'

    • Jesmond on 25/07/2014 - 14:57

      Chromecasts are good for what would be considered Google tasks, otherwise you can look at various other solutions, also for PC/TV, streaming devices and such. Hope that makes it clear.

    • bonbon on 25/07/2014 - 14:57

      You will need it, trust me ;)

    • elitistphoenix on 25/07/2014 - 14:57

      Very worthwhile for $39. I've got one and would recommend it!

      • Mr Wowtrousers on 26/07/2014 - 08:12
        +4

        But why do you recommend it?

        For many people it seems like a fairly redundant dongle, just another thing to buy and have around the house. If you do have good experiences, feel free to post them.

        Personally I don't see the need, but there seems to confusion about what it actually does. Google, in my experience, isn't very good at marketing products and telling people why they need them. Contrast that to Apple who are the masters at it (even if they may have a technical inferior product).

    • bargainjargon on 25/07/2014 - 15:09

      I bought one a few weeks back when everyone else bought one. I'm not saying it's bad but it seems like more work than what I'm prepared to do. I'm gonna give it to my dad, he likes to tinker with things. Maybe by the time he gets sick of it, I'll give it another crack.

      • Lukian on 25/07/2014 - 15:46

        Chromecast requires the least tinkering of any current device…?

        (eg. raspberry pi, apple tv, random android tv sticks, media pc, etc).

        • fault on 26/07/2014 - 10:33

          Agree, could not be easier to setup & use

      • walugi on 29/07/2014 - 15:20

        How much easier do you want it to be?

      Yeah, you sorta do

    • RedHab on 25/07/2014 - 15:31

      I bought one a while back. Not much use unless you live in the Google (Youtube) universe. Youtube streaming is great, and you can use Android to control it.

      Streaming from your PC is slow and buggy (and in beta).

      A standards compliant DLNA or Miracast dongle can be had for $23 on ebay and does much more:

        Streaming via Plex or qloud from my computer is very smooth…

      • sane on 25/07/2014 - 15:50

        Realistically everything media will eventually end up casting to it on the Android universe (and probably not a little of the apple one too).

        Primarily I use BubbleUPnP to cast music to mine from the NAS.

        If you want it on the big screen, this will be the google way of getting it there - particularly since AndroidTV has it built in. Well worth it and will get more support than Miracast.

    • snuke on 25/07/2014 - 15:32

      Buy one, try it, if you don’t like it as I didn’t, return it. Be nice and repack it carefully.

      I definitely didn't need one, but I bought one anyway a few weeks ago at $39. I've been using it every damn day since I got it.

    • kumilee on 25/07/2014 - 16:02

      I picked up a Chromecast earlier this week for $45 at JB. For that price its pretty good. I stream a lot of … legal video… and it's great for getting it onto the tv from the laptop. The quality is acceptable, even for video. Getting Pandora and Youtube on there is just a bonus.

      • alebox on 29/07/2014 - 13:03

        i find it a bit laggy when streaming video even though my laptop and tv are right next to the router.

        youtube is flawless and picture/sound is extremely good

    • bargdebarg on 26/07/2014 - 09:56

      I have setup the chromecast from the first deal as follows to replace a raspberry pi running xbmc that crashed a lot. I have a HP server that hosts all my media. Installed Plex on it. Plex on the server has a movie directory which has done a great job of categorising the movies. As for tv shows, it failed miserably so I selected "home movie" option which doesn't attempt to categorise the media. The TV is stored rather neatly so it easy enough to navigate by directory (this is how I did it via the raspberry for the same reason). One more directory for completed downloads set to home movie again so as not to search for titles as this is just a temporary folder until I can be bothered to sort the downloads to folders.

      I forked out to but Plex on my Android device. But I can use it on either phone or tablet. Chromecast plugged into tv powered from usb plug from tv. Select show from phone, click stream to tv, enjoy! From here on in, you can seek or pause playback via the phone. One issue so far. When my phone screen goes to sleep, playback is fine on TV, but when I unlock phone it to pause or something, I cannot regain control. If i open Plex on phone, it will start a new session. Rather annoying bug which I'll try and seek help with via the forums soon. I am yet to try via tablet. I'll post back with results.

      • bargainhunter on 26/07/2014 - 10:26

          Battery drain. Sleep = screen turn off and lock

        • bargainhunter on 27/07/2014 - 22:01

          @bargdebarg:
          For my part, I'd turn sleep off while watching TV (and then recharge) but if you find a fix, even better.

    • cornholyio on 26/07/2014 - 10:42

      I got mine and returned it when I figured I have to have internet to use it. I was assuming it only needed wireless.
      Playing movies through a video player is a hassle and so is offline usage.
