    These are excellent little devices, they've stayed responsive and able to play whatever streaming service I try. I now have 3 of them, way better than the Roku & Fire sticks that always slow down to the point of uselessness!

    I got this product since my in-built Roku on my 5 years old TV was getting slower. I had always used Chromecast previously, but this was game changer since this comes with an entire Operating System (Google TV) and Remote. A must have for people who have older TVs and are looking to make it smart.

    Great product. Easy to use. Only downside is that I can not cast/mirror Chrome browser on a Apple iPad or iPhone to it. I watch a lot of anime on a web browser and wished Chrome on IOS has that feature.

    My parents have an older Sony TV that doesnt have an smart functionalities. They didn’t like how older Chromecasts needed a cell phone/tablet to use and wanted a remote. This turned out to be a perfect purchase for them for its ease of use, great connectivity to Netflix, Disney+, and Apple TV.

    I've bought 5 of them. 3 for myself and 2 as gifts. Great value with excellent app support. The user interface is snappy and Google services integration is the best. The YouTube app is updated much more often than on fire or apple devices. The Ethernet adapter is a must for Stadia support.

    I really like the interface of this product… Google TV has the best experience in my opinion (compared with fire tv, Roku and Apple TV). I’ve been using for more then a year right now and my only complaint is about the speed of response that sometimes has a lag… not bothers at all but if faster could offer a better user experience.

    Although the setup process was a little complicated, I am very satisfied with the quality and function of the unit. It did find my accounts quickly and it was easy to add an additional app to the screen. The remote paired well with the TV and works its functions appropriately. This is an excellent update to the original Chromecast!

    A great cost-effective streaming conduit

    This great cost-effective streaming conduit is affordable, easy to navigate and hidden. I used to use apple tv and the premium price for those devices is absolutely unreasonable in comparison to this chromecast. The only nuisance with the chromecast is its lack of customizability and the interface can at times be clunky to operate. That said, for its price, it is a no brainer

    As someone who had only used regular Chromecasts, the Google TV interface is nice and adds lots features. Note that as of now it doesn't support stadia natively, but I was able to sideload the stadia app, pair an xbox controller, and stream games without any problems. I also used the SteamLink app to stream games from my own PC.

    The Chromecast with Google TV was easy to set up and works about as good as I expected and hoped for. I do wish I could search within only the services I subscribe to, but am hoping that will come later in an update. Speaking of updates, the setup took 40 minutes simply due to downloading & applying updtes before I could get going!

    Great experience with the Google TV interface. Very user friendly and integrates very well if you use Youtube TV like I do as it will provide you with all the live content from the app on the "Live" tab. All the most common apps have worked perfect and I have had zero issues with it.

    Love this. I have been a long time Roku user and this thing is definitely on par with that. In some ways it's even better. It's not enough for me to give up my Roku but it will be in the mix. I use this in my living room and my Roku's in the rest of my house. Don't hesitate to pick this up especially if you have all things Google.

    By far the best media streaming device! The somewhat universal remote makes it easier than ever to get straight into what you want to watch without having to use multiple remotes. Also this device is perfect if you are already in the android/google home ecosystem as android devices work seamlessly with it.

    I left Roku to get this. I am very pleased that I did. My wife and I both noticed right away how much better the picture quality is vs my roku 4k stick. The layout is very nice the blend of all my apps is very well done. Plus the input button on the remote is nice. The only thing I don't like is how slippery the remote is, especially with its size.

    It works well. I think it overcomes the initial shortcomings of the original chromecast devices. Having a remote is nice and simple. Having to always find your phone was a pain with my other chromecast. The streamer is responsive. If you like the Google TV interface you will like this!
