    The best streaming experience with this thing!

    This device has been amazing. The power, input and volume buttons on this remote sync up with your TV, which is incredibly helpful. And the remote itself is super useful. I find it to be a little too easy to lose/lose grip of, but that can be easily remedied. The Google Assistant on the remote is truly incredible (picks up everything and will tell you things like the weather and answer general questions!). My favorite feature of using this new Chromecast is definitely the Watchlist and the single dashboard for all of your channels/apps/shows. Everything is in one place. You can add shows on ANY platform to a single watchlist, and you can find all of your recent shows (from any platform) in one place. It's incredible!

    Much better than the normal chromecast, this one has google tv interface and a control so it's much easier to use. It's also pretty quick. I only wish it had more storage, I often have to uninstall apps or go in and clear cache/data to free up room.

    Google TV’s interface is clean and easy to use, and streaming in 4K looks great. Voice control works well, and app support is excellent. It’s a simple, reliable streaming device that integrates perfectly if you’re already in the Google ecosystem.

    This is my first chromecast and I'm not disappointed. It powers on much faster than the firestick does. It easy to navigate and the picture is excellent. I'll be replacing the firestick on the other tv's

    New Chromecast w/ google TV is perfect! I wish this was released earlier this year, I would have purchased a different 4KTV a few months back if so. Menus are easy to navigate, apps and channels are organized and its Google's UI, which I like. Once you plug into a HDMI and power outlet you are good. If you are watching cable thru another hdmi and power on GoogeTV it automatically turns on and changes the input for you so you dont need to pick up an additional remote to turn it on. You can also sync with your remote for power and volume. I also bought an additional unit for a older non/smart TV so I have access to all the latest apps and streaming services on that one too. For $50 its a no brainer in my mind.

    This is what Google should have released to compete with the Fire Stick, wayyyyy better in terms of users interface, ease of use, and finding content. Got plenty of them for Christmas presents this year.

    This device has some nice upgrades from prior models. The 4K streaming works well and the interface is similar now to a Fire stick. No issues with any glitches while casting which is most important to me.

    Great for watching your shows and even better for casting to your tv. 4k is also the way to go since 8k tvs are coming now. The remote is also simple and convenient to use.

    Just purchased and set up 2 days ago. Setup was very easy. Having a remote with voice capability, and downloadable apps available through Google play store make this much improved vs older chromecasts.

    Awesome Upgrade to Regular Chromecast.

    Awesome upgrade to regular Chromecast. I kept having issues streaming content with my original Chromecast that was about 4 years old. I have excellent wireless speeds (200+ Mbps) so I knew it wasn't my WiFi. Rather than drop a large sum of money on a new Apple TV 4K, I decided to give this new Chromecast a try. Immediately noticed a difference. Setup was quick and easy and I've been able to stream games through MLB.TV in HD no problem ever since. All the typical streaming options work great too - Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, YouTube TV - it's all great. Great value for the money, especially when compared to the Apple TV 4K, which is roughly 4 times the price.

    Cable Cord cutting made easy

    I have been anticipating the release of this product since the early leaks. My intent was to use this to help me cut the cord from cable. I was paying $50 per month just in box rentals and DVR service. By signing up for YouTube TV, I was able to save quite a bit. I had the original Chromecast units, but having the remote that is included with this set allowed for us to finally drop traditional cable. My main concern was if my wife could navigate around, which she had no issues with. So in summary, buying three of these allowed us to drop our expensive cable. Picture and sound quality has been good. It has been easy and convenient to consolidate all of our streaming services into one place.

    You can’t beat this streamer at this price point. I have an nvidia shield and this thing is right on par with it at a fourth of the cost! Don’t forget to change the “match” source quality option.
