Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have an old Vizio tv in the living room with no smart functionality and with this dongle I am finally able to not only cast things to it but get full apps and use them with ease. I primarily use Plex and YouTube and this device handles it perfectly. The price was perfect too.

works well great as a chromecast. remote control is limited and limits some of the functions. similar device from tmobile ha better remote but overall easy to set up and easy to use. I have several streaming devices all have their good and bad features with this device ability to cast easily makes it a useful device. It's helpful to know what you may want to stream before deciding on any one device

A must-have for anyone who's embedded in the Google ecosystem and/or wants a simple and intuitive way to get to content. The simple navigation plus class-leading voice controls with Google Assistant set this apart. Additionally, it being a chromecast means you can cast any Cast-compatible app, even if you don't have it installed on your TV.

I had the old chrome cast and it bit the dust. So i went out to get this. Love how it comes with a remote so you can control it instead of using your phone. Super easy to set up and use as well.

This is one of the best streaming device out on the market. Navigating it is very fast and smooth. I like the user interface and the Google “For You” recommendation. My only disappointment is the storage. You can add additional storage, but will need an usb c adapter and a memory card or stick. I’m very happy with this purchase, will be buying a second one.

The remote is a little small for my hands is about the only complaint. This is a huge upgrade from the old chromecast devices. The voice activation google assistant will find the show you're looking for quickly across multiple platforms. You have a row dedicated to show you have not finished yet so you can find them quickly and much more.

I got two of these for my den and guest room, set up was super easy and I'm surprised at how much it has to offer, one of the best streaming platforms I've had beside the shield, and it comes close to that.

Very easy to hook up to my wireless internet provider. I "cut the cord" and was able to save a ton of money and had a super clear TV picture using this device.

The best Chromecast I've ever used. I've been using Chromecasts since the first generation of them. This is easy to use, has features I've always wanted, and works great on a 4k television. However, the main reason I bought this was to stream my Oculus Quest 2 headset to a tv so my roommates could watch what I was doing in VR. It works perfectly.

Really was kind of skeptical at first because I had a regular chromecast and wasn’t too happy with the whole “have to download the apps and sync with the phone” thing but this one has the remote and I love how I can access all of my shows, apps, and everything from one screen. It’s very useful and easy to set up and use. Wasn’t disappointed at all.

Chromecast with Google TV overall is fantastic. Simple to setup and connect to all streaming services I subscribe to. Browsing all streaming services is extremely easy as shows/movies all show w/o having to open each service. Additionally, I can use the Android TV app on my iPhone as a remote. The major issue I have with GoogleTV is the lack of an iOS app to couple with the GoogleTV service. Hopefully there is something in development

Purchased this because I have YouTube TV and my Roku Ultra still lacks the HBO Max app so I thought I'd give it a try. I really like the Chromecast with Google TV. It's great for YouTube TV because the Live Guide has more info than the guide in the YouTube TV app which is weird. I like that it gives suggestions from my Hulu, Netflix and HBO Max streaming accounts and you can go directly to the program rather than through the app, thus saving time. Picture quality has been good. It even gives me suggestions for programs that are on my YouTube TV DVR and YouTube videos. My only complaints would be that there is no wired connection option as with the Roku Ultra but I have not had any buffering issues. Also, the remote feels really light compared to the Roku remote which is heavier and just feels more substantial in your hand. It also takes a few seconds to wakeup if the TV has been off for a bit. The Roku Ultra seems a tiny bit faster getting to the main menu, but then you have to enter the app you want to watch so in the end I think the Chromecast is faster but I have not actually sat there with a watch and timed it. Setup was easy. Casting is easy. I'd buy another if there are any Black Friday deals this year.

For my use, the best balance between Fire TV, Roku and Google services. Nice front end with remote so you can use it like a Roku, but also super convenient to Chromecast from my phone. Plus, I can control my TV using Google Assistant much more seamlessly than connecting to LG's service etc. Easy setup out of the box too. Good bang for the buck.

I bought it to replace my mothers Cable box... She very technologic impaired...(she's 65) The interface is pretty simple for her to understand (once I put it in app mode) It's responsive the control could have better placement for the vol buttons Set up was simple But over it does what it needs to do... Save me money on my cable bill..

This is probably the best streaming "stick" you can buy on the market in this price range. It's much faster than the amazon fire TV sticks and it's apparent when clicking through menus. Setup is super easy like most google products and I don't regret my purchase!

I have been a Chromecast user for a long time, but it was never my primary device because I never loved having to control it using my phone. This new Chromecast solves that with the inclusion of a remote and it is wonderful! I love the interface and it has actually replace my Roku. A few software updates and I think this thing will be near perfect!!

Slowly but surely I've been moving away from Apple into the Google ecosystem. I'm not a fan of Roku's interface or the Amazon Fire Tv. Considering the Apple tv devices start at $150, and I got this for $50, I was skeptical on what I may be losing. So far, I love the remote in comparison to the apple tv. It's bulkier and feels like a better fit for my hand. I love the fact it has an input and power button on it, as well as a mute button. Android TV has really been spruced up with the new Google TV changes. I enjoy the new appearance. Everything so far has worked great. Google assistant is way better than Siri, and the experience is consistent between devices. It's also way easier to use my google photos albums as the screensaver or "ambient mode" on the tv. Good luck doing this on apple tv without sharing your entire library. My only gripes are: 1) This doesn't come in all black 2) The Netflix button on the remote isn't customizable 3) The android tv remote app syncs terribly and doesn't allow me to use my password autofill the same way apple tv does with iphone. It also fails to register keys being typed on my phone. It's been a while since I've had to use a tv remote to type in passwords. Updates can fix this though.

Best way to stream and enjoy your favorite movies, TV shows and music from any provider. It runs Google TV which is fast and easy to use. The included remote can also control your TV volume and, if you have a smart home, your smart devices with the dedicated Google Assistant button. Very satisfied with this product

It is more than a Chromecast with a remote. I appreciate the google tv interface and the remote is easy to use. I love that I do not need to use my phone or tablet with the Chromecast with Google TV. My only issue is that some apps like the Watch Spectrum app do not have a downloadable abpp for the device yet.

Google has updated their chromecast with Google TV OS. The user experience seemed a bit getting used to, but the addition of the remote and being able to use voice assistant really helps make the user experience. Having the flexibility and option to use casting from a smartphone/computer or to use the remote to search for your media is nice.
