Title: Poor product instruction and operation!
Review: No mater how many times I installed apps or manipulated this gadget it still never connected to my brand new tv and brand new computer. Total garbage when it does not work, so I now have a wireless keyboard and mouse and went old school and just connected a HDMI cable directly and now it works fine. I can play my games on the big screen and did not have to waste space on my HD to store app software.

Title: Absolute Piece of Garbage
Review: Simple setup? Bullcrap. I'm a pretty computer savvy guy. I've been working on this setup for over two hours and nothing. Free? It keeps asking me for my credit card for the "free" trial (3 days) and then monthly charges. User friendly? Lie. The reset button is in a horrible spot, so when you have to reset for whatever reason (I've had to do so three times while trying to set this trash up), you have to physically pull it back out, reverse, press, and reverse it back in.I'm asking for my money back, I advise you not to waste your time.

Title: A little disappointed, but it works.
Review: I mainly bought this to cast my oculus to the tv, but it doesnât really work in that sense. It really only works for pcâs and phones.. I mean I got it to work by casting to my phone and mirroring the image. But that just means my phone also has to be on. Again it works, but I was a little disappointed⦠Just a reminder next time to get the real deal rather then a cheaper knock off.

Title: Works, but low quality
Review: It was easy to connect, but might be a little challenging if you're not familiar with tech. It works, but the resolution is very bad (1280 x 720) and response is slow.

Title: very low bandwidth so image is broken and pixelated.
Review: Hard to set up, had to go to YouTube to find a video and even then the actual setup was different. Instructions miss entire steps. But once you manage to set it up, video image on the TV is broken and pixelated looking like crap. Impossible to watch. Waste of money

Title: Did what it claimed... Almost. Kind of.
Review: I bought this to use with Miracast display mirroring on Android when I'm traveling and WiFi isn't available. It was not at all straightforward to set up. I downloaded the EZMira app as instructed, but that only made things more complex, and bombarded me with ads. It turned out that I needed to turn on an "enable wireless display" option buried 4 levels deep in Android settings to make it work, which EZMira did not even begin to inform me of nor assist me with. Once I finally got it connected, audio was choppy, video lagged by several seconds, and apps with protected content like Netflix wouldn't display at all. And then the connection dropped. It may work okay for AirPlay on iOS -- I didn't test it -- but this was an utter fail for Miracast, or for any scenario without reliable home WiFi with its own Internet connection. So back to Amazon it goes.
