Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've used every Streaming Device out there, and the Roku was my goto. I've liked the original Chromecast, but it lacked in one area. The Lack of a UI, and remote made the Original Chromecast good, but not great. This be Chromecast with Google TV is perfect. The interface is intuitive, and you have access to every Streaming app you need. The remote and voice assistant work great. Also for $50 this device is worth every penny.

Chromecast stick in 4k what else can i say. Easy to set up and work with cec link just fine on all modern tv that support cec link. Only thing suck is I wish we can add multiple google account, instead of using my own personal account. Not unless there is a way I dont know about or in a later future update. Recommend for anyone who getting tire of their original manufacture os and want to become googlfy.

I bought this to replace an old Xbox One S as my living room streaming device. This is much faster and has a lot of great features like voice search, "continue watching" across multiple shows and streaming services right at the home page, and voice search. Plus, it's much better for casting from my PC to the screen. Worth every penny!

I absolutely love this device. I've been holding off purchasing a new one for a few years, because my older one was still working. I finally bit the bullet, and ordered a new one a few weeks ago, and it's awesome. I haven't had any buffering issues, all of my streaming apps are available on it, it was super easy to set up, and the remote control is fabulous. I can't recommend it enough.

I got two of these for my den and guest room, set up was super easy and I'm surprised at how much it has to offer, one of the best streaming platforms I've had beside the shield, and it comes close to that.

Love it easy to use quick setup love the small compact remote

Love Chromecast for its features, compatibility and ease of use. However, the control that it comes with is not great. Very tiny, slippery and sensitive. However, it does have the ability to sync with your tv, receiver, etc. so you can use it as a single remote for powering on/off the devices, turning volume up/down, etc. It's not just for controlling the Chromecast. The fact that YouTube TV is on this version is pretty awesome too. Overall, happy with it, but not necessarily with the control that they made.

I still have the original Chromecast which still works very nice. Then I purchased the third generation one. Then the Chromecast with Google TV came out. It's a fitting update to the Chromecast series, and an update to Android TV. The responsiveness was very fast, and a remote was included. The remote is fast, and the Google TV was easy to navigate. The overall setup was a few minutes. The device functions solid!

I have used Roku, various Smart TVs and, smart blu-ray players but this is my favorite. Google TV is a great interface. I really like how shows from my subscribed services can be seen together for a holistic look at all of my choices. My favorite part is the remote integration with the Google assistant. I can control my connected devices anywhere in the house and not have to carry my smartphone. Well done Google.

If you're reading this, don't buy this version because a new one is expected to come out this year. However, my review of this device as it stands is 4 stars. Positives - Excellent price - The UI gives you a feed of content you may like, from multiple streaming services - Live TV included - Google assistant is helpful (better than Roku) - Speak shows and passwords instead of typing them - Multiple user profiles (unlike Roku) - Some people may find the UI a bit messy. I find it helpful because I don't always need to open an app to find what I want to watch. Less jumping in and out of apps. Negatives - Sometimes a bit slower loading things (it's getting old and new model is expected this year 2024) - The UI is not as snappy and smooth as a $100 Roku or Apple TV

I feel this is a decent streaming device for the price. I purchased it because the only way I could cast from my Google Pixel 8 Pro to my LG tv without third party apps and glitches was with this device. So far, no issues. When streaming from the device, it doesn't lag, shows good 4k, but the Home Screen is not very customizable.

We also own a Amazon Fire stick and the google TV app is way better, much more responsive and quick as well as far more intuitive. Love being able to cast from my phone to the TV very easily as well as the integration with our google home system. The remote has good clicky buttons which let you know what you are clicking. I would buy one of these for any TV I own.

I've been a dedicated Roku user since that were just the software for the net gear streaming box... And after nearly a decade, the interface just feels bland. Plus there's a host of issues like constantly signing you out of apps while this chrome cast with its remote and interface feels like a breath of fresh air. Everything is just smooth and quick. And for a hdmi dongle it's smooth and faster than my Roku ultra.

Not bad, Google. This is not like Chromecast of yesterday. This remote can actually control the TV volume. Long pressing on a movie or show brings up a contextual menu so you can add it to your watchlist, rate it, etc. The built in assistant makes it easy to navigate and input text by just talking to it and it is quick. If you have a YouTubeTV subscription then this is a one stop place for all of your viewing needs.

This is the best Android TV bang for your buck at the moment. It's faster than the Amazon Fire TV stick and you don't get constant Amazon bloatware and ad-ware smacking you in the face every time you turn this unit on. The remote is compact and easy to use, the interface is user friendly and it has all of the apps you could ever want. At this price point, this is the best Android TV dongle you could get.

I have been using Google's Chromecast for a long time (gen 1,2, ultra...) and I've always wished google included a remote. Now that dream came true. The remote is a smart remote and can control your tv & sound device (a sound bar in my case). Setup was every easy and pleasant. I am also happy that Google TV is now included - makes it a much more pleasant experience to search for contact to watch than using your phone.

Fast and easy to setup. I suggest getting this 4k version because its faster than my original 1080p Google TV. And has different colors so i like that

Best streaming device I've ever used. Roku (box and built-in to TV), Amazon Fire (cube, box, stick), Nvidia Shield, Xbox, PS4, smart TV built-in apps--I've had them all. The new Chromecast is superior in every way. Faster, more responsive, more intuitive than other streamers with surprising and fun features. At $50, this product is a significant bargain. Use is easy for children and the less technically savvy.

I was already a fan of chromecast, but this is so much more than just a streamer. The remote is awesome and the new interface is really nice to look at. As a youtube TV user, I love how live TV seemlessly fits in with the other net based apps like netflix, disney and the rest of them. The only thing that would make it better are (1) up/down channel buttons for Youtube TV and (2) backlit buttons on the remote.

Pros: The remote and new interface makes it a great buy.... going to hurt roku and fire stick. Google assistant makes it easy to search across netflix, disney+, HBO Max, and more to find the movie or show you were looking for....all at the push of a button! Great update. Cons: Needed to add a usb port for more storage and it is also missing the ethernet gigaport on the power plug. Still a Great Purchase!
