    I bought this product and also an Apple TV 4K because I wanted to use 4K. Since both items arrived on the same day, I started by unpacking the Chromecast with Google 4K. I felt in love with it immediately. So much so, that I still haven’t unwrap the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation). What I love the best about it is the remote. The device works as expected, great image quality. But the remote. During the initial setup, the remote asked me what type of TV and sound system I have, and now I can use this small remote to turn the TV on/off, mute the soundbar or change it’s volume, in addition to the functions I expected (pause the movie, fast forward, choose another movie, etc). Really well done job. It was worth every penny.

    great device easy to setup works better than a fire stick in my opinion. i like that you can switch to app only mode to cut out all of the paid programing and apps you dont use. overall a great little device 4K with no issues

    Probably the best streamer for the money. If you want an affordable option to Roku and Nvidia Sheild, this is your best choice. Easy setup and works well with my Visio Smart TV. Will upgrade my other TV's soon with the new Chromecast.

    Easy to setup and syncs very easily with any tv. All apps in one place with ease of use however the continue watching feature only works with shows on google or disney but not with netflix or amazon. Would definitely get another one.

    Great for what it is. After using both Google TV and Apple tv, I think apple tv is definitely better and runs smoother, but it's also way more expensive. If you want a cheap steamin device I would say this is the best option or there. Better than roku or Amazon for sure.

    Better than Firestick 4K

    Skip the Firestick, go straight for this. It is SOOO much more responsive than the Amazon offering. It took several seconds sometimes for my Firestick 4K to respond to a remote command. The Google TV responds almost quicker than you can click. The picture quality seems better too, somehow. And for the same price? No contest. Bluetooth connecting with headphones is lightning fast on Google TV. The Firestick took several moments to recognize my headphones were powered on and connect to them. Not so with the Google TV. It connects immediately every time. There was no delay between the video and audio, either. The one thing I noticed that I didn't like is it does take a while to setup with the Google Home app. But you only have to do that once, so...

    Good product. Well priced. Aggregating content across your streaming services is worth it. Fast in performance, easy to switch between channels . Voice commands. Easy to setup and use. Switching off does not mean power off.

    First one that I got was defective and would not boot up fully. Light blinked a bunch but nada on my screen. Went back to the store and traded it for another which worked immediately. So much better than the standard Chromecast. The casting was fine but sometimes it would act funny and the stuff I watched sometimes skipped around even though I had it set up on 5ghz, same as my phone. None of those issues exist with this one. The remote is great and linked up to my A/V receiver (which I got second hand with no remote) allowing me to control the volume. Also I was able to put more apps on this thing, including emulators. So now I can play SNES games with my PS5 controller linked up via bluetooth. It's great.

    Chromecast With Google TV

    The older generation Chromecast devices are glitchy. But, this one is super solid. And, it isn't just Chromecast. It is a full TV streaming platform with a remote that puts it in the same category as Apple TV and Roku. I'm a big Apple TV user, but now I use this much more than Apple TV. It is cheaper, smaller, and for the most part just as functional. It even has a stripped down Apple TV app built in. I'm a huge fan of this. Only complaint is the form factor on the remote. It is small, slippery, hard to hang onto, and the volume controls are especially wonky to push. Except for that, this would be 5 stars on ease of use. But, you can live with that since the device is so solid.

    Better than Roku?

    I have both a Chromecast 4k device (for one week) and a Google TV (two Months). Pleased with both, especially since I am a Google/Nest home with Android cellphones. Had Roku TV's and devices for years before making this switch. Here is the difference between Roku and Google TV devices. Google is faster with more customizable. Roku is stable and consistent. Kinda like the difference between iPhone/IOS and Android phones. Both are great just depends what you value the most. If you want an experience that is straight forward, a bit walled off and works consistently with no fuss go with Roku. If you want fast, deep integration with other platforms and the ability to fully customize your experience and willing to put up with some technical difficulties occasionally then go for Google TV.

    Must have item! We purchased a new TV where the interface was difficult to use so we got the Chromecast 4K. It was a game changer! It was much easier to navigate to the different apps and the 4K feature made our viewing experience much better 10x! This is recommended for everyone if you have streaming subscriptions.

    Switched from Roku and not turning back

    I recently switched to Google Chromecast with Google TV from the 2020 version of the Roku ultra and I must admit Google has done a great job with this new version of Chromecast. The UI is much more modern and intuitive very snappy and is a refreshing experience versus the age-old UI from Roku. I have been using Roku devices since their inception but am I'm fully ingrained within the Google ecosystem. I decided to make a switch once Roku pulled YouTube TV and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The Google Assistant integration is excellent the picture quality is much better than what the Roku ultra was providing with Dolby vision turned on. If you make the switch from Roku I am sure you will be just as happy as I am!

    The BEST that money can buy! I bought this for many reasons: old Smart TV could no longer be updated, added to the Google Smart Home and price. It’s fast, easy to use... the list can go on and on. DEFINITELY worth investing!
