Customer Ratings & Reviews

I don't understand the negitive reviews this is very comparable to quality with nivida shields. People need to realize yes it's new so there will be more support to come, theres also something you can do to speed up the chromcast alot more, go into settings and turn on developer options and go to animations and change them from 1x to .5 times it speeds up the chromcast by alot. I haven't had any problems with crashing or anything like that

After doing many hours of research, I decided to go with this device and it has not disappointed. The "new" Google TV is working great! I am using it with YouTube TV and several other free apps. No hiccups! I have it on 2 tvs and I am using 2 other Smart Samsung TV's that don't need a streaming device. I might buy 2 more because I like the Google TV unified interface so much better than the Samsung TV version.

Chromecast is so easy to install and gives me more options to view on my TV or any TV I use. I like the idea that I can take it with me anywhere I go, on business trips or vacations. I do not leave home for any length of time without it.

Love love love! My favorite streaming device, so easy to hook up and pretty snappy quick.

For the price and functionality this little unit is hard to fault. It has tons of features, performs really well and disappears behind the TV. Search isn't as universal as Roku and it really needs a storage upgrade but at just a few bucks more than some generic Andoid/Google TV boxes it's excellent. If they can fit another 24GB of local memory and ethernet in this thing, and address some software glitches I would totally give this 5 stars. That optional ethernet, power brick combo that Google is selling for the device is a complete ripoff, otherwise this is a bargain.

Probably the easiest setup of any smart device I've used. Works great and a very nice user interface.

I use this and a firestick. This is much quicker and I like the interface better than the firestick.

I bought this to replace a Firestick 4K and the Chromecast is much better. It is much more stable and easy to use. Some reviewers complain that the remote is slippery (it is) so I also purchased a silicone cover for it, which works great.

Much better iteration. Faster and easier than previous generation Chromecast

Easy to set up and works fine. Remote fairly intuitive to use

This my second Chromecast with Google TV due to it being truly the best streaming stick around. I even, like this one better than the built in TV interface on LG, Samsung, & TCL TVs. The interface is full of great feature plus its super smooth and love have the google assistant right on the remote. If you have a google account, get this over Roku, or even Amazon fire sticks.

Excellent device need improved more for use some app example directv stream is not working on Chrome but for cell is ok or table but for Chrome is not available they need to do the apps universal for all devices to use Chrome not only for select devices but on stream resolution and access to Google ambient is perfect and easy to navigate on all ecosystem

Easy to use and a great remote that controls tv, soundbar and casting device. Beats Roku and others

Purchased this device to get a few apps I cannot get on my Samsung Smart TV. It has worked flawlessly and is much faster than my Sony TV that is a Google TV. It does take awhile to set up, so don't wait until the last minute.

Works great. Very fast and easy to use streaming device. Much better than Amazon Fire stick.

Good entry level streamer. Performance is decent. Storage does fill up fast if you use a lot of apps and I can do without all the ads.

Amazing product at this price. Older smart TVs that don't have all the apps such as HBO Max can be improved with this. The little remote is an added bonus. My only complaint is I wish the remote was a bit larger to allow holding it by the end and use the buttons. Having said that, those buttons, power and TV source are not used that much. I highly recommend it and I'll probably buy a second one for an older non-smart TV.

I bought this to use with my Samsung qled TV. While the TV itself has streaming apps the interface was annoying and practically unusable. Every time you have to keep going back to the samsung tv+ whatever so that the sound bar can be controlled. Enter the Chromecast - easy to use, since it plugs into hdmi it functions properly with the TV. No buffering or issues. Love it!

Pros: Easy setup. I like how it shows all of my streaming services in one dashboard. Input, volume, and power buttons for TV are really nice upgrade from my old streaming stick. Cons: You can't use the USB port on the TV to power it. Must run to a plug. Remote is really slick and smaller and buttons are too so it's easy to press wrong button and/or drop remote. Not a huge deal. Just took some adjustment. Love it still.

Easy to set up and operate, even for someone who's not technically proficient.
