GOOGLE Chromecast is available currently from Currys for just £30, which is a great deal but we’re going to dive a little deeper into the price to explain why it’s such a good deal.
To help understand the average price you should expect to pay for Set top boxes we analysed the price of every product in that category. The average was £90.74. But perhaps more importantly you’d also want to know what you would expect to pay for a particular brand, so we also analysed the average price you would pay for a product from Google. The average was £473.33. But that perhaps isn’t the fairest analysis because we know that Google make more than just Set top boxes. So we went a step further and analysed the average price of Google Set top boxes, this was £43.00. So you can see that GOOGLE Chromecast is a bargain at £30. Especially when you look at the table below which shows you the average price of products with certain features and specs. For example you’d expect to pay £47.89 for a product meeting the Type: Media streamer spec.

Reviews of GOOGLE Chromecast
Reading customer reviews will of course be a big part of your decision on whether to buy GOOGLE Chromecast or another alternative. We’d advise reading reviews from trusted sources like ao.com or Currys, for the obvious reason that you know the people adding the reviews are verified buyers. Likewise we also suggest only buying from trusted online sources too, chances are, if you’ve found a deal that seems too good to be true, it probably is. Having a quick reference score/rating is also really useful as a benchmark to deciding between two products, we provide a score out of 10 for our reviews based on customer feedback from Currys. GOOGLE Chromecast scored an incredible 8.8 out of 10, thanks to the feedback from 3,884 customer reviews. You can read these by clicking the “Read Full Review” button that’s hovering on the bottom of your screen now.
Alternatives to GOOGLE Chromecast
As you can imagine, there’s absolutely loads of choice when it comes to buying Set top boxes. In fact there’s 35 products available in the Set top boxes category at Currys. There are also 12 products available from Google. And 3 items from Google in the Set top boxes category. So it’s not surprising that many people feel overwhelmed by choice, our advice is to not get too bogged down in comparing every product out there. Instead choose a brand, style, budget and pick some key features that you consider to be a ‘must’ as that will really help you to filter down the amount of choice available.
Another good option for finding out more details about the product is to watch some video reviews, ones like the youtube video we’ve provided below are very helpful. You can also find more pictures too using Google.
