Anyone know well Plex handles Chromecast? I'm interested in trying it out, but basically only watch stuff on Chromecast with an Android phone as the "remote".
You're set. I've watched Plex on Android (including TV), Chromecast, and Linux casting to a Miracast.
Casting from the android app works great, the only bug I notice is that using the skip forward/back button briefly sets the playhead at 0, and if you happen to tap skip again while it's briefly at 0, it'll skip from 0 and lose where you were. But as long as you avoid that it's been smooth sailing.
Works well enough in my experience.
