Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have been looking for an inexpensive replacement to a dying Nvidia Shield TV and finally settled on the Chromecast with Google TV, after trying both Fire TV and Apple TV devices. We use Youtube TV, which is neatly integrated into this device as a top level "Live" tab that lets you browse the channel guide without launching the app. The Chromecast also effortlessly sets up its remote to control your TV's power and volume, so you don't need to juggle multiple remotes just to start watching something. At half the price of some of the Apple TV and Fire TV devices, this is a great value.

Excellent device! Much better and faster than any of the fire tv's. No issues with any of the apps! I couldn't get HBO max on fire tv, no problems here! Very easy to set up and use, awesome that it shows all your shows and recommendations from all your services.

very good streaming device, works great and easy setup. voice control is also good. the sound quality from my receiver is better than when using a fire tv or an Apple tv. Good purchase and on par with or slightly better than the other streaming devices including Apple tv.

Wow, this is a feature packed dongle! Works with all services I want to use. Price is by far the least expensive option in this category, but the features are the most expansive. Remote works really well too. A+, would definitely buy again.

I love the new Chromecast. Very easy to set up and it is one of the only streaming services that offers HBO Max. I look forward to all of the software upgrades that come out to give me even more features. I no longer need my FireStick 4k, since this offers Prime, as well.

As a long time user of the Chromecast Ultra, this new version works really well, and the remote does make a huge difference. The only thing I would like to warn people about is the HDR - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It may just be my TV (2018 Samsung KS8000 series). You can easily tell if HDR is not on because the colors are washed out - HOWEVER this only happens when playing HDR content. Be sure to turn on "HDMI UHD Color", or you may need to turn it off/back on for it to register. Other than that, having smartphone-style volume buttons on the side of the remote is great. Interface is super fast and easy to understand AND works across multiple platforms. My last compliment is that it doesn't run very hot like my Ultra did.

Love this thing, and the price is really not bad either! It works well with all of my other Google Home devices and I’ve been able to easily connect my other streaming services with no issues. Live the remote style too, simple and easy to use, and voice control works good.

So much better and faster than the Amazon firestick. I wish I purchased this years ago. The Amazon firestick doesn't have that much space so apps load slowly, and sometimes they hang or crash while streaming. This google device gives you access to your Amazon account, so honestly, there's no reason to even own a crappy firestick. Love this device. The other thing that surprised me was the remote automatically synced with my Samsung tv and took over the volume and power buttons. With the firestick remote I had to buy some device called a sideclick attachment that snapped on. I had to manually program the sideclick remote with my tv remote for the buttons to sync with each other. Love my Google tv. Firestick is trash.

This is everything you could ever want from the Chromecast Experience. Its an updated chromecast with universal 4k and great audio codecs, and a sweet little remote that focuses on its smart assistant capability to become the best remote you could use. HIghly recommend.

This is an excellent device. It did take me a minute to setup, but once I got it connected to my wireless network, it functioned well. It's easy to use and nice to have access to everything in one place. And the remote is a good bonus.

Great way to make your older tv a bit smarter , once set up it can turn Your tv on and off with included remote or using Google home (voice) or app I currently have it on a 2020 Samsung tv on my back porch

Must have item! We purchased a new TV where the interface was difficult to use so we got the Chromecast 4K. It was a game changer! It was much easier to navigate to the different apps and the 4K feature made our viewing experience much better 10x! This is recommended for everyone if you have streaming subscriptions.

Works great. Comes with Remote. Easy setup. Will recommend to buy.

Outstanding device and extremely easy to use! Can set up in any room with zero issues and allows you to stream any where/any time!! Upgraded from first generation and have no regrets, especially with the new controller that it comes with which makes everything simple!!

This Chromecast is the greatest thing since slice bread. I had the previous model and this one works so much better it's great that it has remote and it's voice activated there's so many much more functions I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family

Fantastic purchase! I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend to use in his home and both him and I absolutely love it! The set up was initially annoying as the internet was not connecting easily. The directions also weren't syncing up with what worked (it came down to us clicking random buttons back and forth and it eventually started working and connecting) *insert shrug emoji* Might have been a user error but eventually we got it to work and it is absolutely AMAZING! I might have to buy my own...or steal his :)

I bought this as there was a deal to get 3 months of YouTube tv for half price. Its very fast and I like the feature that I can see contents from all streaming services on a single screen and I don't have to switch between services to watch.

Easy to set-up and use. While I prefer my AppleTV 4K over the Chromecast, the price makes it a great value for additional TV's in the house for which I do not want to spend the extra money for the Apple device.

This is a great upgrade to the previous Chromecasts where you could just cast to the dongle from your device. The Google TV UI integrates all your streaming choices together. The UI looks great and it's not sluggish at all. And, the remote is a great addition as well.

Really solid alternative to an AppleTV, or a Roku, etc. I'd say the Firestick is better in terms of its usability and interface, but since this includes Chromecast functionality, it is better. I expected it to be a bit quicker and more responsive, but it works well enough. The best part about this vs. a regular ol' Chromecast is the vast majority of apps, including being able to download and use a web browser, eliminating the need to Cast certain content. The only negative is you need to use an outlet to power this vs the built-in USB ports found on most TVs like you can use with standard non GoogleTV chromecasts.
