Super Streaming Puck
I am completely satisfied with the device. I particularly like the fast response time. Start streaming on the smartphone or TV and not a second later it's running on the TV. Together with Zattoo, this will definitely be my replacement for the TV set-top box of a well-known telecom provider whose name I won't mention here ;-)
I was a bit sceptical at first, because this Chromecast comes with a power supply unit, because it supposedly needs too much power for the USB ports of the TV. But I don't use it at the moment. My Chromecast is powered via a USB port on the TV and is connected via WLAN. So far, this has worked flawlessly. I can't say how it is with 4K streaming, as I don't (yet) own a 4K TV. But that will be the case in the foreseeable future and that's why I chose this Chromecast.
