Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the look, ease of use, setup, and features that this upgrade offers. I was hesitant at first but I am extremely satisfied with this purchase.

I love this version of the chrome cast. Since you have a remote, you don’t need to go through the trouble of using your phone to set it up. It’s ability to not only cast other devices but also has apps on it for the most common services, makes it even better. It is very responsive and let’s not forget 4K.

I've used the fire stick, Roku & the original chromecast device, but this one is the best overall in every way. The UI is excellent, remote easy to use (even though it's a little slippery) and I can use the remote to control other google home connected devices. I have it connected to my smart tv and it's like having a whole new TV.

We were using Roku for a few years and I was getting aggravated at how slow they were. I bought 2 of these Google TVs and we love them. I really like the interface and the speed is great. As far as I am concerned it is much better than any of the other streaming devices I have tried. Plus its cheaper. I would definitely recommend.

I've been a big fan of Chromecast since launch, my home is full of different generations of Chromecasts and Chromecast Audios. I love to fling content from my phone to my TV or speakers, and screen-mirroring from my phone or laptop is top-notch. But without a remote and and 10-foot interface, that's all they were good for, until now. With the Chromecast with Google TV, it can be promoted from secondary to primary streaming device. The new Android TV OS is slick and pretty, making Roku feel dated. The device is so new that there are still some glitches to be ironed out, but the app selection is great. I'm not throwing out my Roku Streaming Stick+ yet, though. A lot of apps work a bit better, or different, between the Roku and Android platforms. Some apps let me watch live TV on the Roku version of the app, but not the Android TV (I think CBS was the example?) The remote is cute, but it's small and light, doesn't really feel substantial. Roku wins in this department, hands down. And while it's not expensive, the Roku Streaming Stick+ can regularly be found for $10-$20 when it's on sale, something I've never seen for this device.

Excelent product. Comparable to Xiami Mi Box in capabilities but smaller, cheaper and with a better remote control. It's great that the remote control has IR capabilities to turn on the tv and change it's input. The only con is that it need to be plugged to the wall as it can't work with the watts provided by the tv USB ports.

If you're reading this, don't buy this version because a new one is expected to come out this year. However, my review of this device as it stands is 4 stars. Positives - Excellent price - The UI gives you a feed of content you may like, from multiple streaming services - Live TV included - Google assistant is helpful (better than Roku) - Speak shows and passwords instead of typing them - Multiple user profiles (unlike Roku) - Some people may find the UI a bit messy. I find it helpful because I don't always need to open an app to find what I want to watch. Less jumping in and out of apps. Negatives - Sometimes a bit slower loading things (it's getting old and new model is expected this year 2024) - The UI is not as snappy and smooth as a $100 Roku or Apple TV

I have two older Chromecast models. They are very dependable streaming "work horses". I've had this new Chromecast with Google TV for a few weeks. I really like the remote control and Google TV UI. The device is very quick to respond to the remote. Overall, a very good improvement to the Chromecast family. I highly recommend it.

Skeptical first about the white because I meant to buy this for my WeMax UTS prjector. But the build quality is nice. The set-up was so easy and fast. The remote is super responsive. I think, for the price, I paid $39.99 sale price, it was a super-value buy.

New Google TV is nice and easy to use. Enhances all the features from the Android TV interface. Powerful for such a small device. It won't beat an Nvidia Shield, but it plays and streams media as well as any box for 1/3 the cost. Nice support for Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. Easy to use and has the wife acceptance factor.

Very easy to setup and get started on a Samsung TV. Using the small remote is easy to accomplish all aspects of App management and operational control for primarily YouTube TV app and HBO Max. The circular wheel to control fast-forward, rewind, stop and start are quite easy to operate. However, the volume controls on the side-edge of remove are difficult to operate because the volume up and down buttons are so small.

Fast and easy to setup. I suggest getting this 4k version because its faster than my original 1080p Google TV. And has different colors so i like that

You just cant beat the Google TV. Seamless integration with all your accounts. Google Assistant so much more helpful than other AI assistants. Super responsive UI and so easy to use.

I love my google chromecast I have a samsung smart tv but I was having trouble using the smart hub and was thinking about getting a brand new smart tv until I heard about this and now i can watch shows and movies on all of my streaming services in one spot.

Great streaming device overall!!! Performs much smoother than most in its class and supports 4K and modern audio standards. What's more is that it has THE ASSISTANT!!! Finally, a step closer towards a smart home. However..... There is no built-in volume leveling option. Roku and Fire TV have it and I'm surprised that the engineers and developers at Google overlooked this crucial feature. I have a soundbar system connected to the TV via ARC. Makes it really annoying to watch stuff with inconsistent volume levels, especially at night. This could be easily fixed with a software update. But I hope google does it quick. I'm currently using a Roku stick+. But I'm not going to return the chromecast. The assistant is the feature which made it worth keeping.

The user interface is very nice. Very intuitive and easy to navigate. I have a smart tv but this is easier to navigate than the homescreen. I like that you can add apps and stay logged into platforms

I updated a UHD Samsung that was no longer OTA updatable. The 4k chromecast was an easy install and provides excellent picture and speed. All apps are available.

We bought a 65” Samsung smart TV last year and while the picture is nice, the apps and interface are terrible at best. This new 4K Chromcast finally allows us to enjoy our tv. Easy to use and navigate, works with google assistants, and so far, no crashes like the built in tv interface and apps.

i have 4 of these, 1 on each tv. if you like google TV, this is a must have. much faster than the tv interface, decent price

I was already a fan of Chromecast from the first generation. The new remote has led me to use it much more. Makes a great supplement to a Roku for times when media companies are fighting each other over content availability. Also works well in a group with my Chromecast Audio units to play music throughout the apartment.
