    Great Concept, but not ready for Home Theaters!

    Poor Performance when connected to Home Theater Receiver Yamaha RX A8A to use with Home Theater Setup. Couldn't be fast enough to switch display between this and another source. Same receiver took inputs from Apple TV 4K and Xbox 360 without skipping a bit. Called google support to help provide some assistance on what could be going on with Chromecast with Google TV 4K, but they gave and offered to send this one back to them before sending me a another one. While they may be good about their word in sending me a new device, I didn't feel like going through the hassle. Cons: low storage. If you have 10-15 apps you'd like to load up on this, then it leaves no room for cache it needs to store and eventually max out, so it would lead to poor performance later regardless. There are way to add storage. See countless videos on YouTube. But you run risk of further performance delay when it needs to high bandwith for read/write and display. When it did work for me, the HDR made the entire display poor. 4.4.4 setup on this couldn't even handle it. Apple TV 4K works without skipping a beat. pros - having remote with assistant button is great as it can help you with your existing home automation with google home. May be nVidia Shield could be a better option if one needs "Android" echo system. Other options may be Fire TV 4k Stick or Cube. This one is now used for my old "dumb" TVs! May be should utilize my totaltech membership on this! Wonder what would BestBuy has to say about this device being returned to them and getting new one on the spot!

    This is a serious upgrade to the original chromecast I bought years ago. All of the apps you need to stream to your tv are present YouTube, Amazon Video, Hulu, Disney+ and many others. All of which you can stream in 4K which is great. So if your looking for a cheap way to stream directly to your tv this is absolutely the best bet

    I wasn't able to update my old Samsung smart TV any longer, hence I couldn't watch Netflix. This device saved me from having to buy a new TV.

    Best streamer on the market. No contest. The Google Assistant is top-of-class. No other streaming device can do what this thing does. Using it on my Roku TV. So long terrible voice controls, broken apps, and no HBO Max. Was worked the two pieces of hardware wouldn't get along but the Chromecast works great. Super easy to set up.

    Great product. I have it hooked to my av receiver and projector. Works flawless. Only issues I have will be that the USB cable has to be plugged into the USB wall adapter. You're not allowed to plug into a USB port on a power strip. The Chromcast will not recognize the power and will prompt you to use the USB wall adapter.

    Best Chromecast, I bought the other versions and even though it has a small amount of memory, it's perfecto for my needs. I use it everyday connected to a Smart TV, the best thing is that i can install a VPN on it.
