Easy to set up. There is no lag. I am using it for YT, YT TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime and Plex. Wish that Apple would create Apple TV+ app for Google TV. Highly recommend it.

I have a smart tv and use this for all my streaming services because some of them are not available through my tv. It’s very quick to switch between services.

This is a great little device and for the price you can't complain. If you want to spend money on quality you can get Nvidia shield but that is 150-199. But this is a close second at 39 bucks

I bought these to work on my 4k TVs. I recently got rid of Spectrum and moved to Fiber Internet. I bought the Chromecast to use to Stream my shows I watch. By doing this I saved $100+ by ditching Spectrum and I still get to watch my Favorite shows via Streaming. The Chromecast can do many things by streaming shows, to connecting my cell phone or laptop to it. I am glad I got these.

My new fav smart dongle

Great purchase. Faster and more responsive than built in android TV, Roku or Fire stick. Super easy to setup and use.
My only compliant is that huge power button is under the the other buttons and took some getting used to.
I have a very expensive smart TV Sony OLED A8H that already had android TV. I received a Philips Hue HDMI sync box for Christmas and needed to run the video through that to get the ambient lighting to work so I needed to get a smart dongle for external input. I had switched from the old chrome cast to Roku years ago for my other TVs but decided to give the new google TV a try.

About as simple and straightforward as it gets, but quick, responsive, and intuitive like most Google products. The remote makes it absolutely worth it.

Product is easy to set up and use! This older TV was hooked up to an Apple receiver. The control was very touchy which made it hard to stream programs. The Google TV control makes streaming so easy and the voice recognition works perfectly for all voices in our household. The unit is very reasonably priced.

Great product and ease of use. I've owned several different Chromecast iterations and this is my far the best, particularly with having the remote and Google assistant.
Only wish it was slightly cheaper and came in black.

Perfect but you have to make sure you have a great wifi connection. This has changed the way I watch content. It is as easy as watching on the phone with the remote and google assistant button. In fact its easier since the tapping is eliminated and all I have to do is say what I want and google looks up the best results for me. The design is sleek and hides well. The remote is durable even after 100 drops and bites from my dog.
It is worth it investing a strong wifi to support this in the room you are using it in. I may as we delete the streaming apps on my phone and just watch on the tv.

To me it's the best chromecast yet the remote makes it so much easier to use i dont have to connect my phone to it no more so no more worry about leaving the house and the family not being able to continue watching the program or the family not being able to change what they are watching with out connection of another device with one of my streaming accounts since they are all on the chromecast with TV the Google assistant is a very cool feature ill ask for movies or videos with out need of typing anything I highly recommend it to everyone who uses chromecast older gen its a very big step from old gens.

Pretty good streaming stick. Works better if you have an android phone/tablet. Not as good as an Apple TV, but for the price I’d say this is more worth it

I've purchased 2 of these now and love having all my streaming services in one place with an easy to use remote. My main complaint is the small storage which fills up quickly adding the streaming apps.

The reviews are accurate. I thought, this coulnt be better than my Nvidia Shield, can it? As a streaming device it has been superb and more reliable than the Nvidia Shield in terms of wifi connection staying consistently connected, streaming services working and the controller always staying paired unlike the Nvidia shield. Bluetooth speaker functions are pretty whack and need a lot of work to consider it a point of reliability. I'd expect it to pair with Google home grouped speakers too, but no such luck, this is pretty sad since the Sonos lawsuit is forcing us to say farewell to any future development where that would become a possibility for Google's Chrome cast TV.

I was apprehensive about this until I install everything. Now that I have it working it works far better than I expected. Installing was fast and using it was super easy. If you have a smart phone it is even easier still. I am glad I bought this for all my non-smart TV's because it works great. The Only thing you have to have is an HDMI port on your computer and you are good to go. I am very happy with this product and have already recommended this to family and friends.

Overall, a decent streaming device. The highlight of the device is definitely the operating system, Google TV. Having tested Firestick and Roku, Google TV is clearly the most streamlined of the three. Secondly, this device works perfect if you are using YouTubeTV as your source for TV. It blends live TV perfectly with all of your other streaming shows and movies and makes everything very accessible.
Pros:
Google TV operating system
YouTubeTV functionality
Good 4K and HDR when used with compatible TV
Cons:
Processor could be faster when loading apps
Remote is an awkward shape and feels cheap

Hi Adam, thanks for providing us with a very informative feedback on Chromecast with Google TV (4K). We're sorry to hear that your device seems to be loading your apps longer than expected. Chromecast relies heavily on a fast Internet connection of at least 20 Mbps, and a reliable Wi-Fi network for the best experience. If your Internet connection is already more than the recommended minimum bandwidth, you may want to try out the following steps to isolate the issue further: - Check 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. - You may also check for possible sources of interference such as the thick walls and appliances in your home. - Lastly, try resetting Chromecast with Google TV (4K). For a detailed, check out this help article: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654
We'll certainly put the details of your feedback into consideration and make sure to pass these along to the right team. If you will need further assistance, you're more than welcome to contact our support team here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp
