    Way better than Apple TV, and even includes Apple TV. Comfortable user friendly remote. Smooth UI.

    I bought this for a family member who has never owned anything smart other than a laptop and they absolutely love it. I have owned one for a few years now and I also really enjoy it (needs more storage though) and it was worth every penny. I hate having to pay full price but it was for a birthday and I had no choice. Keep an eye on the remote as it tends to grow legs and hide.

    I bought the original Chromecast and Chromecast deluxe when they came out. I wish I had saved my money and waited for this. Google finally has a workable product that doesn't rely on a smart phone. Performance is good. It supports a bunch of formats including HDR and Dolbyvision. The suggestions functionality is so-so and for some reason Google TV doesn't seem to track Netflix and Hulu last viewed programs. Still a very good product at this price point considering the prices for Roku Ultra or Apple TV+. There have been some 4K audio issues reported on other TVs but I haven't had any problems with my LG OLED.

    This is the device I've been looking for since cutting the cord. So easy to search across all my service and love being able to see available shows without needing to launch each service one by one. It ties in excellently with Google Tv for live tv, and with the unlimited DVR on that service I have a streaming beast now. The remote is a most welcome addition and voice search works great so far. Integrated with Google home as well, so can control from Nest as well.

    I have so much experience with streaming boxes & devices. By far this is the best experience ever with any kind of streaming device. It's currently the only streaming device that supports all the apps and in their max resolution! Also having the ability to do Dolby Atmos is the icing on the cake. Very smooth & easy to use by far. I love the fact that you can side load apps in developers mode! The best streaming device and it's only $50 bucks!

    There really is nothing better when it comes to streaming services I mean this thing is awesome it's fast and sufficient then you can even hook a USB hub to it too I have it be compatible with an external hard drive or a flash drive if you will. I actually made this an emulation machine with the attachment of a 1 TB external hard drive if you're looking for what's better Amazon fire stick or Google Chromecast I highly highly highly recommend this product right here

    Super easy to use, just plug it in and go! It turns any TV into a GoogleTV device you can use to watch all the things! To be fair to get the most out of this you'll also need the Google Home app and a Google account too but most people probably already those.

    This makes everything about TV easier and smoother. I have an LG smart TV, and as soon as I installed this guy, I uninstalled ALL of my 'smart TV' content. This is faster, easier, and just all around better. I can even install Android Nintendo emulators (with varying degrees of success). My favorite feature of this device is the 'watch list' that brings together all of your streaming platforms, and has one master watch list. I love it. I strongly recommend.

    I didn’t understand “cord cutting” until I got Chromecast with the Google remote. Now I get it. We can cast from the iPhone, iPad and even the laptop PC. We can cast pages, tabs or files from the Chrome browser to our TV. It’s a basic LCD, but becomes a “smart TV” with this device. It’s been fun to revisit the 1at season of “Saturday Night Live” on Peacock. This inexpensive and simple little device is amazing. Highly recommended.

    [Employee of bestbuy] We have a samsung tv. It was slowing down. Plugged this in and made it much faster thanks to recpmmmdations of a few co workers. Grandma found a french tv ahow that wasnt reqlly available xfinity wise so that was also a plus!
