Customer Ratings & Reviews

Device works perfectly fine, very quick, modern looking and easy to use. Love the controller as well.

Love this so far! We're looking to cut the cord from cable TV, and this might nudge us to finally do it. The first 2 weeks after we plugged it in, we didn't even turn our cable box on! (We were binge watching shows we had wanted to see, to be fair...) Need to get some additional subscriptions (Disney+ and so on) but still well worth it. The A/V quality is excellent, and no lag (we have cable internet).

Works great use it as a media hub in the master bedroom. Works well with android phones to cast screen *not sure about iPhones. Remote is finicky sometimes have to raise is higher when laying down in bed.. *or maybe I'm lazy... Works tons better than a firestick imo. Faster, clearer & just better. Get one!

Easy set up, I like how the apps are laid out on screen. Note:Seems it was defaulted to lower quality video, once I changed in settings to do video based on source, the colors intensity really increased to true HDR. Initial default setting made colors look washed out compared to same movie through my Roku box, now it looks as good as my Roku output, but I can watch HBO Max thru the Chromecast, whereas I couldn't get that app/channel thru Roku.

Fantastic with the Android TV OS. I have this as a replacement for most of my TVs own OS because it just outclasses it in every way. It's snappy and easy to use, and most importantly it can access all of Androids entertainment apps unlike a TV OS with a fractured app presence. I would say this is a must have. It can also be controlled by other remotes, I have this paired with my LG CX remote and it works perfectly.

Google did not let me down. I bought this because my smart tv is a vizo and it's Xmb (cross media bar) really sucks, It was slow and it didn't have disney plus....This is where the Chrome Cast shines. It replaced all media watching on the tv...turning my Vizio into a 4k monitor and that is amazing. It also received updates a lot and that was good because tiny issues were resolved quickly.

Easy set up and the quality is good with no lag. Love the simple controller and easy plug and play.

I decided to buy this streaming device for my S-N-L. I brought it for her to replace the Google Asus Nexus Player I brought her 6-7 years ago. Which is still working. Was going to wait & give it to her for Christmas. But decided to just give it to her as soon as it arrived. Only took 2 days for it to arrive from BB. She said this is so much better and faster than the old streaming Nexus Player.

This little device packs a punch. The interface is relatively straighforward. The features are great (now that Stadia is also available on it). I have used Roku and Fire Stick, but I'm sticking with GoogleTV. Only drawback is the limited storage space, but I was able to resolve that using an attached hub that also provides Ethernet for greater stability.

I've had ROKU, Apple TV, the original Chromecast, and now this. After using this for over a month, I will be purchasing one of these for each of my televisions and never having to worry about what app is supported or what input I have to be on to watch my content on any service. This works with everything, controls the TV power/volume (including surround setups), and basically simplifies everything into a single interface that is easy to use.

This is well worth the price. I got this because I have started to make my home a Google Assistant Smart Home and this was a much needed product. With this you can have access to all of your apps and more features that are incorporated with your TV in one item. It makes everything a lot more simple and doesn't give up quality of what you are viewing; in fact I would say it makes the viewing better for some shows/movies.

Amazingly simple to setup and use. Needed it for our local streaming service. Excellent picture.

Coming from a Chromecast Ultra, I had decent expectations for this new device, but none too extraordinary. But from the day I received it, I knew Google had did something good. The setup took about 10 minutes and was not complicated at all, and it installed all of my streaming apps for me which simplified many parts of the process. It’s such a snappy device in such a small form factor and for its price you can’t go wrong. I highly recommend!

Fantastic device. I have an older HD TV that isn't a smart TV and I didn't want to buy a new one. I used an old blu-ray player that had a few pre-installed apps but updates were no longer supported. This device is a great alternative to watching my streaming services. And the remote makes it so easy to navigate. I'm so impressed and would recommend to anyone. FYI: If you are looking for live TV, you'll have to subscribe to YouTube.

Very smooth UI and all the app choices you would want. Now my issue with it (and the reason I returned it) is because it will not work with the 1A / 5V power provided by the TV's USB port. It needs more than that so you are forced to use the included power adapter. The way my TV is set up It has not visible cables so I just wanted to connect this device to it and forget about it. Unfortunately this was not for me but if you have a setup where you have a power outlet behind your TV or not care about the dangling cable then this one is definitely for you

What a great device! Everything is available in one single place. I have a LG OLED 4K TV and it doesn’t have HBO max as an available app to download along with a few others. This device adds that capability. I like that with this Google offered a remote which was definitely needed. This device is headed towards the right direction. While scrolling it is fast and not sluggish. Also the remote controls my TV and subwoofer!! Great buy

This is head and shoulders above the interface of Roku. I love the simplicity of how it merges all the shows that I'm watching across platforms and includes the suggestions. The overall Google suggestions and watchlist (at the risk of privacy, I guess) is fantastic. It also gives you options of the platforms which you want to watch. I have the latest roku and this, and as an otherwise Apple user, I prefer this 10/10. Docking 1 point because the remote's direction buttons are janky. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't.

By far the best mainstream streaming device available. Google really knocked it out of the park on this one. Definitely gives Roku a fierce competitor. Nice thing about this device is that running Android you can pretty much load or sideload any available Android apps. Video is excellent. Responsiveness is super snappy. Remote is a pleasure to use. Price is direct competition to Roku and Fire TV that are much more limited in use.

This is an exceptional value and amazing upgrade to my clunky Samsung interface on my TV. Setup was super easy and integrates into the Google Home ecosystem pefectly. The included remote, which separates this from previous versions of chromecast, is a nice upgrade to the one that came with the TV. I was surprised to find that the buttons were mapable. It easily controls the volume and power functions on my TV. Worth every penny!

I don't understand the negitive reviews this is very comparable to quality with nivida shields. People need to realize yes it's new so there will be more support to come, theres also something you can do to speed up the chromcast alot more, go into settings and turn on developer options and go to animations and change them from 1x to .5 times it speeds up the chromcast by alot. I haven't had any problems with crashing or anything like that
