    This is an excellent product. I have been a longtime fire stick user, and was looking to upgrade, when this device launched. The price was reasonable so I decided to give it a try. The set up was easy, and I like the interface. Integration with my streaming services was seamless, and the supported apps seem more comprehensive than with the fire stick. Also, the Best Buy staff were very helpful. I strongly recommend this product.

    Love it! I know it’s a little more expensive than the other options, but it’s overall better quality and has more options. The remote is even voice controlled.

    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.

    Good performance. Netflix and Youtube designated keys can be remapped (by downloading Button Mapper app from playstore). I also mapped the power and volume buttons to work with a seven year old TCL. I suggest not ordering a Blue or Pink as those versions are seriously backlogged (even if they show in stock momentarily). You will end-up waiting weeks and finally receive a automatic BestBuy cancellation which happened to me.

    Pretty good, if you need an upgrade to an older TV for Streaming and App purposes, then this is the way to go. Very Very Very simple and easy to use. Also very easy to loose the controller. It's so tiny to what we are used to ✧⁠◝⁠(⁠⁰⁠▿⁠⁰⁠)⁠◜⁠✧

    Important missing/inconvenient features

    I really wanted to love this device and replace my Fire TV Stick 4k with it. But every time I use it I'm reminded why I like the Fire Stick better and where Google is lacking. Pros: Navigation is pretty nice and not really complicated. Picture quality is very good. Scrolling is good enough. Ability to side load apps. Cons: placement of volume button is terrible. Only device I've ever owned with volume on side. Google should just straight up copy Amazon here and just put all buttons on the "face" of the remote and make the remote a bit bigger. No ffw/rew buttons would have been a MAJOR deal breaker for me if I'd thought about it before purchasing. Can't ffw/rew with just press of a button. Very inconvenient. Especially when used to ffw/Rew in 10 sec increments, for example. Although you can side load apps, some never show up in apps list. You have to go into settings and go to installed apps to find/open them. If there was at least a "recently used apps" list on the home screen, like on the Fire Stick, that would be enough, but of course that's something else Google is lacking. Lack of a decent available browser, namely for video playback, is a big disappointment too. Nothing nearly as good or user friendly as Amazon's Silk Browser. Practically never goes on sale vs Amazon devices being on sale almost constantly. I'll probably end up selling this device and just hope for a better, updated version in the future.

    The Chromecast with Google TV worked as expected. I enjoy many streaming programs including the Amazon Prime streaming movies and streaming TV programs that are not available from our expensive AT&T cable service. Mainly paying for the AT&T cable to record Hallmark programs which we have not yet found on a streaming service. Still learning options available on the Chromecast with Google TV,

    Love this device. It has 3x more memory for downloading apps than my New 2022 Samsung 65in miniLED TV came with. I loke being able to take it with me so I can wireless stream my fav content from my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra smartphone. Also more apps available from Google Play Store than Samsung's Tizen OS.

    Fantastic product! It lets you quickly turn any TV into a smart home Cineplex. You can easily find and watch movies from a wide variety of streaming services. Unparalleled ease of use. We do not subscribe to any TV services and don't miss that at all. I have bought half a dozen Chromecast devices via Best Buy for free delivery to family members. Great value!

    When it comes to streaming sticks and boxes, it very hard to beat the value here! Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, HDR10, and just about every app you can think of from HBOMax to FuboTV, Discovery Plus and more. It is also very easy to hide behind your TV or sound system and forget it. The interface which is a slightly reworked version of Android TV is great! Google did a great Job designing this!

    Streaming is good and work fine with installed streaming application and I tried to install web browser [ Chrome browser is not available] by enabling developer mode but it is not easy to play with web browser and I was able to install 3 web browser but it does not work properly and it crash and hang with third party web browser. It is good to cast from phone or laptop.
