Customer Ratings & Reviews

Already have 2 fire sticks, but also have a bunch of Google products so thought I would give this a shot. It links to my google account and I have a Pixel phone so easy to cast to tv. I am used to the Fire Stick UI so probably biased, but I am not impressed with UI on this so far, maybe there are ways to customize but I don't like having to click all over the place to get back to an app I use alot. I do like the set up and the ability to control TV.

Easy, awesome, full 4k hdr. Setup is a breeze and casting is easy.

Easy to use. Glad I made the purchase. Great for taking on trips to hotels that have smart TVs.

I love this streamer. I've had everything out there, recently tried the Tivo device (3 times, all horrible) since I have Tivo throughout the house. I get HBO Max with my cell plan but it wouldn't run on Tivo. This device has every service I need and keeps it all in one place. It's a little slow to connect when switching over to it but overall I'm happy with it.

Works great, easy to set up. Hubby can now work TV streaming on his own.

Best 4k steamer + stadia available. Just sign in with your gmail account and you're ready to roll. It also has a great single interface for accessing all your streaming services. I got it on sale but after having owned it for a few months, I am planning on picking up another to replace a Roku on a secondary TV.

I just purchased one a few days ago and now I'm going to get another because it does everything that my Amazon fire stick and my Roku does only better. For example, I purchased two Firesticks just so I could play all my digital movies and TV shows I have on my WD Cloud Drive (NAS drive) because it was the only thing I knew of at the time that would display the subtitles and CC on them using the VLC app. Well I found out quickly that there were lots of flaws to the app that was irritating the heck out of me. Like if you played a title that started with any letter, say a "B" (I look at the drive displayed as folders) as soon as you hit stop, it would suddenly show that title in the letter "O" spot instead of "B". Not only that but would also change the title to seemingly random characters/letters/numbers (didn't actually change the file name, only the listing in it's own display). Well the Chromecast with Google TV, VLC app, didn't do this at all. On top of that, I have all the other stuff/apps and more, that the other 2 had as well. I will be hooking a wireless keyboard and mouse up to it in a few days. I'm sold it's just the best of all of them combined and more.

Best streaming option available IMO. Took a star away for always showing streaming options I don't have (even after deselecting some in settings). Almost feels like ads and causes a few more button clicks to navigate. The 2 best things are showing everything (and more unfortunately) in one area / searches all apps and that you can download Kodi. I've been able to keep up with sports, shows, and PPV with the Xanax repository. Youtube "Kodi xanax" if you're interested...

Very functional and useful streaming device. Simple yet very intuitive remote. Only issue is that after setting it up to control TV for video content and AV receiver for audio content, it's been hit & miss whether both TV and receiver remote's turn on when I push power button on the remote. I tried exact same set up with an Amazon Fire Stick & it works flawlessly with TV & receiver. So, great device if you don't need to also control audio through an AV receiver.

This is by far my favorite hub for all my entertainment apps. It’s really snappy, integrates well into my google home ecosystem (which is extensive) and has a price you can’t argue with. Only issue at this point is the lack of a Apple TV app. I have a huge movie collection on iTunes and they way you access them currently is trash. Other than that, it’s awesome!

Love it, super fast, everything loud super fast, 4k looks amazing.

Google Chromecast, an amazing unit! This is so EASY. Just click the button, tell it the movie you want! It searches and finds the movie! No more trying to remember if the show is on Netflix, Prime, Disney, etc. This unit was pretty easy to set up. Just enter your user name and password one time, and then it is very easy! Well worth the money!

Updated to this unit from a earlier 1080 P version that kept overheating and shutting down. This unit seems to be much better and we’ve been able to watch without any problems at all. It seems like another good updated model from Google. I happened to purchase the last one on the shelf at my local Best Buy so my assumption is that they are doing well.

Nice product, smooth functions, and seamless set-up. Could even control auxiliary speakers connected to monitor! Price is a bit high compared to amazon fire stick 4K; otherwise great product. Couldn’t install 3rd party apps, so I am choosing amazon; but i loved the use of this product.

I sold my Apple TV to move to this and I've been very happy with it. The interface is straight forward and the apps are smooth and work well. I use rabbit ears with the HDHomerun app, Hulu, Prime, Netflix, and a bunch of different cable apps like Discovery. Everything works very well. My ONLY gripe so far is that entering passwords via voice isn't possible.

This Chromecast with Google android TV is a best combo to have a single pluggable device on my Projector to use it as a smart tv as well as to cast anything to my project. The 4k support quality is doing its best and I love the picture quality as well (not at its excellent par as I use it through a projector).

Highly recommend buying this. First of all it’s $50 and it has a great App selection. I have an Apple TV 4K and like using the chrome cast with Google TV more. You can even download an app that lets you airplay to this Chromecast for those who have an iPad or iPhone. I’m going to sell my Apple TV 4K and get a few more of these Chromecasts with Google TV.

The great: In contrast to other viewpoints, I don't mind the so called ads that are part of the new interface. In fact, I appreciate the suggestions that seem to be tailored to my viewing habits. The interface is intuitive and if you have YouTubeTV, it's fantastic! Easy to setup and configure any modern TV. The not so great: For what you pay, one would expect more from the remote. It feels cheap, light and easily breakable. It does work well though

Love the remote, it makes surfing my streaming subscriptions and YT a breeze. Wish I had a better TV paired with this. Maybe I will upgrade that soon.

This product is excellent, easy to use, and well assembled. I have a perfectly fine VIZIO TV (5-year-old) that is not updating to new Apps like Disney+, etc.. This Chromecast save me hundreds since I won't need to replace my old TV, just buy this product for $49 and it works better since I'm able to see all my subscription in one place from one screen.
