    Chromecast 4k

    TV lags a bit and had to remove cache from certain apps. I had to replug it in because it was sensing the hdmi plugged in even thought it was, in fact, plugged in.

    The Chromecast works well for all supported apps. It delivers the best possible image with no lag. Also, it is very stable, delivering advertising on free streaming sites without crashing (which is a problem with some other devices).

    Love it. My main living room TV is older and apps are getting slow. Switched to using this to resolve my issues. The remote does like to hid in the cushions.

    Streaming is good if you have Google TV. If not, then it's not worth it. No Apple TV. Doesn't combine several streaming services into one guide as the Fire TV sticks do. FireTV 4k is a better alternative. Yes it doesn't have HBO MAX but you can side load that

    Google TV is probably the most exciting feature. The use of the app to help search and add features to your watchlist and letting you know (based off what you're subscribed to) what service you can find it one makes it worth the value.

    Not quite as good as Roku but a viable replacement

    Have a Roku and a Chromecast. Old Chromecast wouldn't support some videos so we got this. This model could replace the Roku but I will keep it. I like the Roku interface better. Chromecast is better at search. Can't power off of TV USB.

    Great streaming device that feels a bit more fleshed out than the other stick type streaming devices. The one complaint is pretty small memory on it, so watch how many apps you load on it. I would suggest finding a usb c hub with PD so you can add in some addional storage

    We had a Roku TV but it wouldn't run many of the streaming services that we use on our other Andriod TV (SONY). With this we can leverage all our other Apps and home automation on the Roku TV.

    love it. much better than others. only downfall is that it needs a usb-c hub to attach anything else. Youtube TV needs to be $10 less or get more channels.

    My older smart TV became quite dumb over the years and would no longer connect to the internet. This new chromecast made it so I don't have to buy a whole new tv. All you have to do is add your streaming services and start watching.

    overall fairly smooth but occasionally there is a spike of lag. great thing is, dolby vision and dobly atmos are working on most or all platforms! i have the fire tv stick 4k, ps5, built in tv android, the first gen android nexus player. I prefer to use this the most for my streaming needs.

    Great UI and support for all the best HDR formats for less than $100. As far as I know, this might be the only device that ticks those boxes.
