    We are enjoying this product. Works really well. Only draw back is having to put in our passwords to so many of our different apps. Otherwise it's been a very good upgrade for our family!

    Turned my dumb tv into a smart tv, love it! Had a regular chromecast before this one but the inbuilt menu makes everything so much easier instead of having to find you phone all the time

    I bought it just to have Chromecast on my TV. I have mixed feelings. Cons: remote is slippery and always ends up between couch cushions, under you, or slipping anywhere but where you left it. This makes you have to change the batteries often because you end uo sitting on it all the time. The buttons are like a slippery rubber, so unlike other remotes, this one slides even when you put it face down. My other remotes don't have this issue. Biggest annoyance with this device, so much so that I wouldn't recommend it for this reason alone. The content this device recommends, has NOTHING to do with your subscriptions nor the apps you have installed!! For example, it recommends a movie. And youd assume it's either part of your subscriptions or apps you have installed. But it is not, not only is it not available for you to watch, but you don't even have that app installed. I don't understand this logic. Not only does it do this, but there is no way to change this in the settings. So you have a device suggesting things you can't watch unless you pay money to an app you're not even using and is not free. For this reason alone, I don't recommend this device. I think Roku doesn't do this, but I haven't used a Roku for a while. Also when you use the Google voice to do a command or search something. The audio is extremely loud, there is no separate volume control for the Google assistant. Pros. It has Chromecast, which surprisingly I don't use often. It's pretty. That's all. Buy a Roku or smart TV. Roku has remotes that have an Aux output which is really cool and doesn't have slippery buttons. Also Roku has a find my remote feature.

    It's an excellent product with one major problem. It won't allow you to use Xfinity Stream or the live streaming app for Spectrum Cable. If that isn't a problem for you, you'll really like this. I have no other problems with it.

      Hi AveryL, we really appreciate you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we’re sorry that your Chromecast with Google TV won’t allow you to use Xfinity Stream or the live streaming app for Spectrum Cable.

      Chromecast with Google TV has access to more than 6,500 apps that you can download from Google Play Store. You'll be able to watch from video apps that are downloaded to the device, or video apps that are on your phone or tablet. Xfinity Stream is not on the list of apps you can download to your Google TV, but you can cast your screen to your TV while watching Xfinity Stream. If you're using an Android device, you can even mirror your screen to your TV over Chromecast while watching the app. Please note that Chromecast doesn't support screen mirroring for iOS devices. You can visit this link to learn more: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/3006709

      Unfortunately, the Spectrum TV app is not on the list of partner apps for Chromecast with Google TV. Chromecast can’t be used as a Spectrum receiver to access Spectrum business TV programming. You can view the list of partner apps using this link: https://store.google.com/us/product/gtv_apps_and_partners

      Your feedback means a lot to us, and we’ll share this with the appropriate team to constantly work on improving our products and the services we offer. And if there’s anything you’d like us to address with, let us know anytime by visiting this link: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Works great, install was quick and easy. Interface is much more user friendly than the built in OS on my Samsung TVs. So good that I bought 2 more for the rest of the house.

    I wish I wouldn't have waited as long to get this. It's perfect! Fast, and has everything. The only down side is that it has to plug into the wall. The usb on your tv isn't enough power.

    Great product. There are multiple ways for me to access my subscription services like Netflix including my cable box, gaming system, and tv, but the apps run much faster and smoother through the chromecast. I also like how I pressing any button on the remote will take me directly to the homepage (automatically switches input), and controls my tv volume. This prevents me from having to hold 2 remotes in my hand. As I mentioned, this product was mostly a "nice to have" since I could access my subscriptions and screen share through my tv's OS, but everything runs much faster and stable through my chromecast. I would definitely buy again.

    I have always enjoyed Chromecast devices. I have had them since Gen1 models. A breeze to cast to from the phone. And connects to most digital services. Not to mention from your computer!

    Great upgrade from older model. Using the remote for Android TV is so convenient. Who knew going back to remote from using the phone to cast would be the preferred way but it is.
