    Everything is good except the remote, the buttons are way too sensitive. If you touch any button by mistake well it will something on the Screen or maybe shot it off, other than that good product overall.

    I bought two of these, but I can't say I'm all that impressed by this iteration of Chromecast. The volume buttons are hard to press, the interface is slow and the power button doesn't always communicate with the TV. After going into the settings I found there was a update waiting and that seems to have helped with the slow interface and slow syncing when casting from my phone, but I. Still not impressed. I'm not returning because it still makes sense to have this Chromecast, I just wish they offered a more powerful version for more money.

    Good device. Pity is does not have all the Streaming apps that I use. Google needs to work a bit harder to catch up with Roku. No FLO Sports, no F1 TV. I was expecting more as the owner of the Android platform.

    Terrible User Experience

    I bought this because my chromecast ultra started dying and I wanted to maintain a google device with casting functionality but this thing is really a nightmare. Setup was ridiculous, I had physically unplug the power several times because it would get stuck when trying to pair a bluetooth keyboard. It has profiles but you don't need a pin to switch between them so there is no way to lock your account from other users but they do let you set a pin for your....settings? Why not just lock the whole profile. Big miss. Pins are also a big problem. They made a simple way to enter a pin somewhat clandestine when entering it for your profile settings, but NONE of the apps implement it so you have to go to a visible number on the screen and click it, CLEARLY everyone in the room is going to see what I am putting in and completely defeats the purpose. I also haven't figured out how to get it to recognize the number inputs from my harmony remote (setup as a bluetooth keyboard) so that is not an option either. The UI is SLOW and CLUNKY and riddled with ADS. It also grabs my watching data from my apps which I don't like and was a pain to find how to disable what I could. I ended up putting it in apps only mode to get rid of a bunch of the garbage but they still left a nice big AD across it. I was excited to give google tv a try because I am tired of the ads all over my roku tv but it is no better. They are just copying each other and optimizing their profits and ruining the streaming experience. I miss the original simplicity of the roku where I just had my apps and no ads. The remote is also garbage, you can program the power and audio buttons to three different devices but it can only actually control one so what is the point? It is TOO simple, it needs more, I don't want to be yelling in to my remote to control things, a remote is suppose to be for quiet use not having conversations. I got it on sale and I regret the purchase at that price still, I would DEFINITELY NOT pay full price for it. This is a $10 streaming device at best. AVOID if you have other options!
