Great alternative to other streaming devices. In particular, I was looking for a streaming device that could playback YouTube videos in 4K HDR 60 fps. Previously I had been using the Roku Streaming Stick+. However, that device would begin stuttering and prompt an onscreen message that it was overheating when playing back the 4K HDR 60 fps YouTube videos. The Google TV also has the latest UI.
The only limitations are:
- Some users have reported that is limited storage for a bunch of apps and games and there is now way to expand the storage.
- You have to use the power supply included. With the Roku, I was able to power it using my TV's USB port.

Love it. So easy to have all my streaming services consolidated PLUS have the voice feature. It hooked up to my old TV (2013 era) so I can change input and turn on/off with the Google TV remote. My ambient screen is often up, too, showing my Google Photos which just increases my quality life by seeing tv-size pictures of back when travel possible and we could gather with family. I will say that trying to set up the volume was a pain, and since we have a separate soundbar we weren't able to get that synched through the remote.

NOTE: This review is based on only a couple of days of use, but user experience and price have been good
UI is easy to use and works quickly and smoothly
I had a Roku Ultra? and was very displeased with slow UI, freezing, frames dropping: I have not seen any of this on the Google Chromecsast with Google TV.
The Roku was not able to show anything in 4K: blamed it on the HDMI connection not be able to deliver 4K. But the Google Chromecsast with Google TV unit appears to be deivering 4K, or, at minimum, a very sharp picture

The picture just seems a bit better than my Roku 4K stick when playing thru my 4K projector. I like that fact that all content keeps my projector in 4K HDR mode unlike the Roku 4K stick which might be the reason. However, it loses a star due to some of the apps like FandangoNow which do not currently play my 4K movie library with surround sound (plays in stereo). Other channels like HBO and Showtime play with surround sound, so I'm thinking it must be an app issue on the Chromecast. However, no problem with that issue using my Roku 4K stick, so for the time being I have both connected to my AVR and use the 4K stick when playing from my movie library, and the Chromecast for everything else.

Very easy to install and does not crash near as much as my Roku devices. Its a no brainer if you're a Samsung household but also as a great alternative to apple TV and Roku.

This is so much better than the original Chromecast and Chromecast Ultra. My only complaint right now is it does not support Stadia which is the reason I only bought 2 not 3 of them. Setup was very easy the controller can control both the volume and power of the tv so that is very convenient.
I put one of these in the kids play room and like the fact I can set it to Apps only and locked the menu in the settings so they can not get into the apps I do not want them to have access too. Also with Hulu, Amazon, Netflix, and Plex I have it set to a kids profile so only the stuff I want them to be able to watch will show up on the video list.
As far as Stadia I heard there is a why to side load it with an APK so I will be looking into this and see if I can figure it out until it is officially supported.

I was coming from the chromecast ultra which to me was a great product, but this was way better. With Google now integrating their standalone OS, Google tv, it makes the Chromecast that much more compelling. If you are wondering whether or not it’s worth the upgrade, it is 100% worth it. The new Chromecast introduces the multi-function remote that not only integrates with “hey Google” but also allows you to control the volume and power functions of your tv. For under $55, I can’t see a better streaming device.

Ordered this even though we had the first chrome cast. Easy to set up and the added remote is a great bonus. Highly recommend the upgrade!
