    Now I don't have to sacrifice Google TV when moving to an LG OLED. Dolby Vision/Atmos out of the box and is fantastic quality.

    This was ok. Purchased to see a concert on the tv from my phone but could never get it to connect. We would up retuning it bc it didn't work for that purpose. Otherwise we have streaming devices already.

      Hi there, thanks for sharing a review. We’re sorry to know that you’re unable to cast from your phone to your TV using your Chromecast with Google TV. We hear you and we appreciate your feedback.

      Casting issues can be related to some settings on your Wi-Fi network or your casting devices. We suggest performing these steps and see if this will improve your experience:
      - Ensure that your mobile phone and Chromecast are connected on the same Wi-Fi network.
      - Turn off Power Saving Mode. As it can limit the processing power of casting devices which might affect the performance of the device..
      - Decrease the distance between the TV, router, and your Chromecast with Google TV.
      - Make sure that the Chromecast-enabled apps are all up to date.
      - Connect Chromecast with Google TV to another HDMI port on your TV or another TV.
      - Turn off other connected devices to your Wi-Fi network while casting to avoid congestion.

      Though we could be looking at a connectivity issue, we may also need to learn more to identify the reasons behind this issue. If you’re willing, we’d be more than happy to help you the best way possible if you can visit us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Google's new Chromecast is the best way to stream any services on your tv. It has great WiFi capabilities and no issues with it yet.

    Remote pad too sensitive. Selects when not wanted. Good selection of apps but would like to have all that is available on Google Play Store. I still cannot replace my Roku or Firestick but great replacement for Chromecast.

    Been using since I purchased and I'm quietly impressed. It needs a few improvements like storage size and stability to match up to my firestick but for being a fairly new attempt at on device streaming it is doing well

    This is AndroidTV with a new launcher rebranded as GoogleTV. It's a little confusing because I still have an old Logitech Revue which was GoogleTV before AndroidTV existed. Whatever...we all know Google has no direction at this point. I don't love the new layout and the fact that Google suggests programs to watch from sources I don't have like Disney+. I also really wish that they would support user profiles. I hate that half of the suggestions are based on what I watch and the other half are based in my spouse's VERY different viewing habits. Lastly, the remote is ok, but is missing an important feature... I'm using this in my bedroom since I have a shield tv pro in the living room. The remote can be programmed to control my sound bar AND my TV....just not at the same time. The power button will turn on ONE other device only, and for some reason I can't use HDMI CEC to have it auto power on the TV. So I still have to use my Logitech Harmony remote and then switch to the Google TV remote to use voice input. I'm going to try connecting a USB C hub with power delivery passthrough and connect ethernet and an always on microphone so I can initiate voice searches without the dumb provided remote. I'll update if I have success. It works on the Shield so I'm hopeful. Anyway, if you want a cheap HDMI dongle with 4K and HDR that will likely be supported for a while, this one is pretty good. It may not be the best solution for a power user but it's certainly good enough for the average person who just wants to watch YouTube and Netflix over WiFi.
