    I have the original chrome cast and this is by far such an improvement!!! The integration with googles services and the apps available are top notch. Also having a remote to control it especially one that has voice controls is perfect!!!

    Excellent device to watch all of the various streaming services. I didn't think I would like the remote function as I like using my phone to stream things, but since having the remote I use it all the time. Smooth a fluid to scroll through youtube tv.

    Wish this would have been what Chromecasts were like when they first released. The remote is such a necessary feature for a streaming device. And this one works great, interface is easy to use. Has all the services, such as HBO Max. Pretty darn nice...

    The interface is a lot better then the firestick and Roku. It's also faster and capable of connecting to more accessories. I read about it and decided to try it, nownIm planning on getting two more and getting rid of the firesticks and roku.

    I have been looking for an inexpensive replacement to a dying Nvidia Shield TV and finally settled on the Chromecast with Google TV, after trying both Fire TV and Apple TV devices. We use Youtube TV, which is neatly integrated into this device as a top level "Live" tab that lets you browse the channel guide without launching the app. The Chromecast also effortlessly sets up its remote to control your TV's power and volume, so you don't need to juggle multiple remotes just to start watching something. At half the price of some of the Apple TV and Fire TV devices, this is a great value.

    I Love this Chrome-cast! It was very easy to set up use the streaming feature! I use it more than my cable box! Easy to stream from my phone and I-Pad. I can stream and still use my phone! Bertolucci S.

    This baby has been great for the spare room tv. This has turned an old tv into a great Google TV, which caused me to purchase a new TCL google tv series 6 (see other review). Once you do the initial setup, the dongle will login to your services if they have saved passwords in your android phone. If you don't it's not the worst interface to type in passwords either. Keep in mind this is a lower end device, I also own an Apple TV so I can tell the difference in speed, but this little box can hold it's own. the way it culls suggestions from your different services and puts it on the main screen is fantastic, I hope Google make a higher end google TV box.

    Great value for its price. This is easy to use and is almost as quick/snappy as the NVIDIA SHIELD TV, but at a fraction of the cost. The remote is also top notch, and can be configured to work to control your TV or soundbar via HDMI CEC or IR sensor.

    A must for any non-smart, or non-Google, TV.

    Perfect for any TV, or monitor, you want to turn into a Google TV device. The response is quick. Setup was a easy. The interface is very nice. The one downside is the lack of multiple account support. I hope they can update this in the future.

    Really easy to set up. I was able to get 4K DolbyVision to stream through HBO Max onto my LG CX OLED, though I had trouble getting DolbyVision to work on other apps like Netflix and Disney+. If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative to something like an Apple TV, or you prefer the Google/Android ecosystem, this is for you.

    I have two of these in my house. Nice little smart tv add on if you don't have a smart TV or if you just don't like your TVs UI. Casting works well. I cast my Chrome tabs so we can watch movies that you might not find on other streaming platforms onto the TV.

    Easy way to connect everything at home you get a lot for your money. User friendly and outstanding performance. The only thing I would complain is the quality of the controller buttons they change color too quickly other than that amazing product.

    I had an old chrome cast unit and trying to download and view a you tube video was impossible. I bought this unit at best buy and it 's great and does so much more. It beats my other streaming units, hands down. I don't need any of the other units.

    Very simple to install, setup, and use. We used this to get an older flat screen television to gain access to streaming services, but we find ourselves turning accessing it through voice commands just as much as using it for streaming. :)

    Probably the easiest instant Smart TV upgrade Item you can add to your home. The voice feature is awesome. being able to cast stuff from your phone to your TV is an added bonus. Remote is very tiny and easy to lose.

    Probably better than an AppleTV for the money. Adding a remote is a game changer and the user interface is fantastic. I was a little nervous about cutting cable and not having a box below my TV but now I have more stuff to watch then ever before.

    Great device. Much better than firestick 4k. Better picture quality, no buffering, and google tv is great. Switched from ATT now (was a beta tester and got a great discount) Google tv is way better! Device is easy to set up. and works as it should!

    This new Google Chromecast with Google TV is the device I have been waiting for. Google really needed a device with a remote and they delivered. I love the interface and how intuitive it is. Having Google Assistant is a bonus. Highly recommend it.
