    I've had the 1st gen Chromecast device and this new one is a much better experience. I like that there's a dedicated remote and seems more of a streaming box experience rather than just a casting device from previous generations. Works very well and easy to use.

    Google Chrome cast mates streaming movies, TVs, shows, I am binge watching seamless. All you have to do is ask Google to play a show or movie and it comes right up. No more going through the hassle of looking for the application to play the specific show or movie.

    Easy to set up and use. I received the first as a gift and when I needed another streaming device (despite having used Roku for years), I ran out and bought this one. Shipping was super fast and I was able to get everything set up in under an hour.

    I bought this to be able to stream Steam on my TV. Although there's lag for gaming(as expected) I can now stream anything I need to my TV and have more apps available to me than were before with just the TV.

    We purchased to use on the spare room tv. Set up took a while with getting all the logins right. Once that was done it works like a champ. We have not tried with Google assistant yet. We'll be getting a couple as gifts for the parents.

    I've had this now for almost a year, it's great! Easy to use and makes any TV with an HDMI input a smart TV if it's not. I use it everyday and does not disappoint. You can access almost all the movie watching apps out there.

    I was hoping to be able to cast to this from my iOS devices but that only works with a third-party app and only with some media. (If I had done my research I would have known better.) The new interface is nice and easy to use, serving as a great combined hub for most streaming services.

    The new 4K Chromecast is a nice update from our older model. It supports all the streaming apps we use, and the user interface is smooth and responsive. So far it's been everything we were hoping it would be!

    Hands down improvement from the original Chromecast of 2017. Cleaner interface, faster processed and connectivity make this a much better experience. Only gripe is that voice control still lags behind any of the Amazon products (no voice search or control in certain apps is a glaring omission). Another one that may seem obvious is no Apple TV+ support.

    Dongle was always great, but addition of remote makes this perhaps the best streaming device available. User interface is GREAT and recommendations are good too. I've always been a Roku user, but this new streaming device has become my personal preference!

    I was pleasantly surprised how polished this first generation of Chromecast with Google TV is. I supposed Google has used the manufacturers of Android TVs to refine the experience. Only a few issues you can overlook, like the main screen starting up a bit slow and then recommending things from services you don’t have. Overall very good though.

    Its a great chromcast replacement as it comes with a remote. I own 3 of these because they are so good. I have 1 in the living room another in my room and another in another room. This is honestly a great way to make a tv a smart tv.

    Replaced my aging Roku 4 and within a day the Roku was already unplugged and collecting. The interface is intuitive, the suggestions are helpful, and being able to control to TV with my Google Home products is a nice addition to impress friends and be generally lazy.

    I bought this for my friend and my friend has been loving it ever since. This is probably the best smart TV device at this price point. Google TV is extremely easy to use and the variety of the apps available make this stand among the competition.

    I you need a streaming device look no further. It out performs the fire stick and is not on a lockdown platform you can sideload apps as needed for the price it's the best streaming device you can get without going to the Nvidia shield.

    Connected directly to a Denon avr-x4700h. My one gripe is, sometimes it doesn't recognize 4k which can be resolved by power cycling the avr. So, minus one star for always having to check the 4k status. Otherwise, it works very well with an easy to use user interface. We now have a total of five in the house.

      Hi there, thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that Chromecast with Google TV sometimes doesn't load 4K videos.

      We recommend checking for possible congestion in your Wi-Fi network. Removing some of your connected devices can help free up some bandwidth space. You may then check to see if you will still experience the same connectivity issue.

      If you´re willing, we'd like to take a look at the issue you are having and see how we can help you. Please do not hesitate to contact our support team here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle
