    Has potential but currently very buggy

    Purchased this unit to add Android TV to my family room. This unit features the latest interface which they've named "Google TV" I personally don't like it. It's buggy compared to my other Android TV units. I also prefer the old interface abit more as I like being able to install my streaming apps and having a similar experience to that of my Android phone. This tries to blend it all together into a more unified entertainment focused fashion. I'm sure it will get there eventually after some updates. However, I'd suggest you save your money. There are many other excellent options available currently from the TiVo Stream 4K to Roku. I'd get one of those over this for the price. Google has a way of launching things in beta and working out the kinks over time. If you don't mind the initial phase, I'm sure eventually this unit will be well worth it. It's just not there yet.

    This Chromecast with Google TV is great. I really enjoy that they added a free game section to the app lineup, I can also speak my request for shows.The only downside is I still need my TV remote to turn the power off and you can't access their Stadia platform.

    Great device for a guest room to make your subscription services available via remote. With the new kid features, this is also great for a kids room with self-guided access.

    The remote is a nice add, and love the promise google tv has. It really just needs a bit more work for seamless connectivity. Too many glitches from time to time on connection or menu staying up while casting v playing off the screen menu.

    Fast. Easy Setup. Gave 1 star less as in numerous apps the directional pad either works as forward/reverse or left/right arrows and not both. Wish it had dedicated forward/reverse and l/r arrows. Also a dedicated play/pause is needed for the same reason.

    This chromecast-google gadget replaced an older chromecast. Having a remote is a substantial improvement, over the old one that always required the phone to tune any station.

    It’s a great tool to get your best tv options in one. My TV is not new so I can’t get the voice control or the volume but the easy access to my favorites channels is awesome.
