    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.

    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.

    It is the only way to watch 4k tv and have high definition audio. I love it so much! Fast, smooth transitions, and great screen savers. I use it for all streaming and playing just dance on my phone

    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.

    I think it's better than firetv 4k if you don't plan to use Alexa but fireTV works great with Alexa. I have both and Chromecast has a better user interface. I took a star off only because I just realized that streaming sucks in general. I should not have bought fireTV or Chromecast but a Roku ultra or above. People don't know that the cheaper the streamer the lower the bitrate and less quality video. Nvidia TV has the best quality video but it cost $200. Of course cable and fiber is probably better.

      Hi there, Alex1joy. Thanks for your insightful review of the Chromecast with Google TV (4K). Your comparison with Fire TV 4K is valuable, and it's great to hear your thoughts on the user interface and Alexa integration. You mention noticing lower bit-rate and video quality on both devices compared to potentially higher-end streamers like Roku Ultra or NVIDIA Shield. This is an interesting observation that can vary depending on the specific streaming service, content and app. We hope that you continue to enjoy using your Chromecast. If you have more questions and other concerns, we recommend reaching out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp madebygoogle

    Good performance. Definitely an upgrade over by 6 year old Roke. Love the fact it comes with remote and voices search. Easy to install and integrate with other Home appliances.

    This is a great update from the previous generation of Chromecast that is quite easy to use. I also like the look and the remote that everyone can learn to use in minutes.

    This is the second Chromecast I purchased, if that tells you something. For those of us who are still hanging on to our "older" TVs and waiting to buy a smart TV, this is the product that turns that TV into a smart TV. I lost my TV remote but it doesn't matter because I replaced with the Chromecast remote, which also has a volume control. Also, because I have Google products and the Home app, the setup was awesome, didn't have to setup all of my apps to watch TV because it was done automatically (immediately logged me in to Netflix, Peacock, etc.). Finally, the picture quality with the 4k built-in to the Chromecast is a game changer.

    Best streaming media player in my opinion. This does everything I want, and streams everything I want. I can also control volume and turn tv on and off so I can put all my other remotes away.

    I've had one of the original Chromecasts for years, and recently only used it to watch a couple apps that are not supported on my LG OLED. After getting tired of the phone controls, I purchased this new Chromecast and I wish I had done so sooner. I don't even bother using the built in TV apps anymore, the Chromecast does it all and the remote can control my TV and Sonos speakers as well. I've had the Chromecast for a couple months now and once or twice I've had to cycle the power to get it to work correctly, but it is been trouble free for the most part.
