Easy to use. I would only change not syncing to the surround sound. The up/down from some reason goes to the max - or when turning on we use the surround sound remote to reduce the volume. I'm not sure if it is the remote or the surround sound that defaults to 100 volume. Other than that plenty of apps, some basic free channels, and when an upgrade comes we can easily switch out vs a build in wifi for a projector.

Lack of an Ethernet port could become a problem as the WiFi section of this device seems a bit picky about routers, has given me issue on 2 of the 3 routers in my home, connections dropping and then magically reconnecting, of course after a big buffer to-do with whatever you were watching or should I say attempting to watch. These aren't weak signals either, these are 100% signal strength connections. Maybe I just got a bad unit, either way, next box will have an Ethernet port. Other then this blaring omission, the unit performs well, has the expected amenities, is reasonably fast, responds quickly to remote commands etc., oh it has a nice quality remote as well.

I love this piece! IMO is the best streamer device out. Easy to use, really fast, and not to expensive!

I love my Chromecast Google TV. It runs everything I need it to and looks good doing it! It runs most Android programs as well, unlike other streaming sticks. My favorite 3rd party program is button mapper. I don't use Netflix, so I remapped Netflix to open up my streaming service of choice. The voice command is another great feature. No more typing out tv show names on a timely on-screen qwerty keyboard! Great product! Google does it again!

I wish I knew this existed before I bought a regular Chromecast. Because I have Verizon’s garbage gateway system, some channels (namely sports ones) don’t let me register the Verizon into their apps (resulting in a maddening cycle of authentication hell). In getting this particular Chromecast, it already has my stored passwords in my Google account. So as soon as I go to register on an app, it either automatically logs me in, or has a simplified service to do so. This thing is perfect, really.

Awesome that they added the remote to the Chromecast family. So easy to use and love the voice command!

This is definitely a must have - over Roku and Amazon - if you’ve embraced the Google Ecosystem. The layout is perfect and easy to navigate. The remote control is amazing. Definitely worth the money and time to set up.

CCwGTV is one of the best choices for devices you have for a streaming "stick", especially for its form factor. It uses USB-C so you can easily add an ethernet adapter for a hardwired network connection, but its wifi reception is pretty good as well. The interface is a bit riddled with ads, but it's also helpful at the same time since it will search all of your subscribed services from the home screen, as long as the app is supported.

Great streaming device if you do not have a smart TV. Love the ability to cast directly from my phone.

It's easy to use and install! Watch your favorite shows from your current subscriptions. Games are also available. One of my personal favorite is Orbia. The remote is easy to use as well.

We have a samsung tv. It was slowing down. Plugged this in and made it much faster thanks to recpmmmdations of a few co workers. Grandma found a french tv ahow that wasnt reqlly available xfinity wise so that was also a plus!

Great product! Easy to use and set up. Fast speed when moving between apps.

Will never buy a Firestick again. Faster and less clunk interface with better remote. Also can be used with additional storage

I tried the Chromecast 4K, hoping it would be a solid addition to my streaming setup, but it left me disappointed. The device was noticeably slower compared to other streaming options like Apple TV, with laggy menu navigation and delayed responses when opening apps. While the picture quality was good, the overall sluggish performance made it frustrating to use, especially when switching between apps or content. For the price, it’s a decent option for those on a budget, but if you’re used to the snappiness of devices like Apple TV, this may not be the best choice. I ended up returning it and sticking with what worked better for me.

It makes my smart tv so much more pleasing to look at. The overall layout is so clean and crisp it makes finding stuff to watch so easy and it even has a continue watching option from different apps outside of the apps so you don’t have to go back and forth between whatever applications you use. And the ambient mode is so amazing because of the fact that it lets you use your google pictures which just makes your tv feel more personalized. Amazing device and hasn’t given me any type of problems.

I have a mixed household as we use both Chromecast and Amazon Fire products. I have been very pleased by the updated Chromecast with Google TV and have been using it primarily on my TV. No lag, Loads and responds quickly. None of the issues I've been having lately with our Fire products. Strongly recommend

Very nice streamer, probably the best on the market in this price range. Simple to use, convenient remote, easy to setup. The only negative - it requires more time to turn on than I'd prefer.

As a techie, I'm quite picky about my devices. I've been a fan of the Chromecast line for years and when they announced this new model that properly runs Android TV I was cautiously optimistic. Absolutely blew away all expectations. Short of something like an NVIDIA Shield this is the most powerful smart TV device you'll find, especially at the price point. That power means an immensely smooth experience. It's stuttered maybe once in the month I've had it.

It did exactly what was needed...easy searches, no need for cable with all the choices...definitely would recommend...

This is the change Chromecast needed to stay in the Steaming Device Game. A good solid remote for screen navigation (no more using phone). Bluetooth capable for those who would like to connect a gaming controller. And the ability to play PC games using the Steam and GeForce Now app. Nice! The crown of the resistance “would have been” the ability to install Stadia from google app store. But with a little web search and effort, this is not impossible. Overall, 9 out of 10 in my humble opinion. I
