    Give Your TV A New Lease On Life

    I purchased an LG OLED65B6P back in 2016 and it has served me well with firmware updates keeping the picture quality on par with the higher end OLEDs being sold today. Unfortunately the software and processing lags behind today's standards and many apps were no longer available or beings supported. Instead of buying a new TV, I purchased this $50 device and now have access to my favorite apps powered by Google TV's excellent interface. Now I can continue to enjoy my TV for years to come

    Works well but needs more internal storage

    Works great, but the small amount of internal storage is annoying. I bought it to use with an Epson projector so that it would have the same interface as our Sony TV (which uses Google TV). And for that, it has been successful. The small internal storage, however, can be a problem if you install more than, say 6-8 apps (Fubo, Disney, Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, ESPN, PBS, etc). It can cause an out of memory error. There are documented ways in the 'net to solve it by adding a USB key as external storage, but that is a hassle. The device should simply have more internal storage. I've bumped into this and been able to clear the app cache to continue on. But it could be a problem if you use more streaming apps than I do.

    One of the best streaming devices

    This has been an awesome streaming device. So much better than the original chromecast as this has an interactive UI, installable streaming apps and games and can still chromecast. The device even received the Apple TV app for access to TV+. Now I can really take advantage of my 12 month TV+ Trial. My mothers chromecast recently failed on her and I recommended this and she was able to configure and set up herself and she appreciates using remote vs phone. I did have some boot issues a few months ago and if you experience similar make sure to push the physical button on the device itself. I spent days ignoring the device before realizing there was a physical butting for restarting google tv.

    This, by far will replace the Firestick! So easy to set up, works my smart home with ease. 4k UHD is great, supports ATMOS. Remote is easy to use and comfortable in your hand, although a tad on the slick side.

    Ease of use is so much better than roku. Voice control works great. Fast and fluid interface. Very intuitive. Only app missing is Apple TV but that’s not a big loss really. Great value for the price.

    Excellent Streaming Device

    We had the 2nd generation Chromecast, which was just a device that let you stream from your phone to your TV. This Chromecast is so much more. It comes with built in apps so that you can directly stream YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, Prime Video, Hulu, ESPN, etc. from the device, no need to cast from your phone (but it still can do that, too). The remote is easy to use, and comes with a voice feature that makes it super easy to use (just press the button and say something like "Watch Stranger Things on Netflix" and it works perfectly. It also supports resolution up to 4K. Definitely a nice streaming device.

    Our first chromecast device. I've been meaning to get this due to ability to install different streaming services apps and ease of use. Our old samsung tv doesn't support all the streaming apps we us and this absolutely helped address those. Layout seems intuitive and easy to navigate however there's still limitation that i notice. First is the lack of ability to create multiple profiles (not linked accounts) to allow multiple users to have personalized contents. Not all streaming services are included in proposed shows. There's also weird bug while watching youtube, netflix and disney app where video feed is disappearing from time to time. Video quality is superb and crisp and supports 4k quality videos (tv dependent) and can be used to control soundbar and tv via CIC. Nonetheless, i still love it and looking for updates to address the issues i noticed. I would still recommend this to anyone looking for streaming device.

    This was great when it was working! The first 5 months or so, I had no issues. Streaming was fast and it was easy to set up. I also really enjoyed the suggestions it would give me on the home screen. The remote was also easy to use and had no issues with it. Google assistance was a hit and miss sometimes, but I just found you need to be very specific with your commands for it to understand you. HOWEVER, after the first 5 months, it just stopped working. I started to lag when streaming, and these weird lines began to appear when watching anything. I had to take it back to the store to recycle because I just couldn't use it anymore. No sure if I just received a defective one or if the device has an expiration date of 5-6 months but be warned.

    HUUUUGE Upgrade over the Original Chromecast

    WHAT AN UPGRADE! I was between a 4K APTV or replacing an older CC with the new version. I ended up buying two of them and maybe ready for a third. The price is unbeatable compared to the APTV and unless you really need to be that connected from an Apple standpoint this does the job done at a fraction of the cost. Excellent option for cable-less folks and those that do not have Smart televisions. Its hands down one of the best media players I have used and it plays 4K video to boot over wireless. I forgot it also comes with a nifty remote that paired with an old LCD Samsung TV thats 10 years old. Don't hesitate to pull the trigger on this one.

    various apps don't show up while searching the Google/android tv playstore that are available on the Google/android phone app playstore. unsure why i can have those apps on my phone but not my tv?!? i guess i can just cast them to the tv even tho i do not prefer that method and reason i went to roku.. i came back too chromecast because of the upgraded remote and ui without casting so hopefully they will fix the availability of apps across devices.. however so far so good compared to my old and slow og roku stick and def much better than my old and useless outdated casting og first streamer chromecast.. there's a learning curve with the remote and user interface but both are so smooth during operation.. the remote is slippery in the hand being so small but im going to put a silicone grip around the back of it to fix that.. def a decent purchase.. looking forward to future updates

    I use it on my 4K monitor and it's like I have another TV. The remote even controls the volume on the external soundbar speakers connected to the monitor. For the price you can't beat it.

    It seems like a great product, the user interface is awesome, but the device itself has too many short comings for me to recommend it. It doesn't have enough storage for the apps so it runs out of memory for updates. Sometimes it turns on to a black screen and has to be unplugged for a few seconds so it will start properly. I really wanted to like it but just has too many issues for me to be able to recommend it.

    This compact streamer has exeeded my expectations. I had orginally purchased this to use with my gaming monitor, as a way of accessing media and entertainment without needing to turn on my pc. I was drawn to this device at the time of purchase due to it being on discount at the time and it's low power consumption. It's ability to smoothly stream pc games is a huge plus for me, in addition to all the content it can access. The only cons would be the low amount of storage and it still being on an Andriod TV OS 10 (at the time of this review).

    I bought it to use with Google's new live tv service. Looks great on my 4k tv, interface is intuitive, and voice nav works well. Had some wi-fi issues with the first one I bought, but Google basically overnighted me a replacement and it has zero isues.
