    This product works way better then fire TV I bought this cause my fire TV acts up and Remote gets laggy and still in good condition but still gets wifi issues after rebooting router so I bought this streaming as a replacement and I have been using since return date. I had no issues better and smooth running. It's worth it then fire TV...

    I brought this new one to replace my old device. I accidently put the remote for my old device in the wash and it no longer worked. After taxes and shipping a new remote was $5 less than purchasing a new device. So I opted to buy a new Chromecast. My only issue is the power cord is a little short and there is not a lot of storage available, but it was a great investment.

    Long time Google fan here, this will be the 3rd Chromecast we have purchased, I have one connected to my main TV and the second in our Bedroom. I have subscribed to several of the streaming services so the only time I don't have something to watch is because I've not turned the TV on! Google is suggesting a lot of content, a few from platforms I dont subscribe to. But I sub'd to some others and really like the content. The darn dog likes the remote and chewed it up. I bought two more and nightly place them where she cant get to. I have also had one remote "wear out" where the buttons just stopped working, So very easy to add remotes, Google does a nice job there.

    I have a couple of chrome casts that don't have remote controls so I thought it'd be great to buy one that had a remote so that I wouldn't have to use my phone as a remote. It's great if you only use the approved apps (Hulu, Netflix, YouTube) but if you use other apps like OnDemand Korea (korean app like Netflix) it's not as awesome, hence, the 4 stars. I have to press the Netflix icon on the remote and then cast my screen for my OnDemandKorea app to cast. To reiterate, when I use it for Netflix it's great.

    I am very pleased with this product. I was looking for an inexpensive way to upgrade an older model Sony television that does not have access to apps such as Hulu, Disney Plus, Google Play, YouTube, etc. and this one is perfect - easy navigation, access, app selection, and an uncomplicated remote. Great functionality with a low price.

    The interface is very intuitive and responsive. I love how it aggregates all the content from the various streaming services. I have it in my bedroom and its amazing. My only critique is that the "For You" page doesn't update as often as you would expect (once a day I noticed) so even if you go through and dislike a lot of reccommended content it takes a while to see new ones based off of that info.

    Best Streaming "Stick" under $100

    Been waiting for a long time for Google to make an official inexpensive device that runs Android TV. This one does it well and because of the way the remote works, I don't even need my TV or sound bar remote. Perfect for my OLED in the bedroom as it does all major HDR formats and for a price that can't be beat. Way smoother than using a Fire Stick or Roku

    Really enjoying this although surprisingly there is a bit of a learning curve coming from regular android TV such as the shield. It is noticeably slower than the nvidia but that's to be expected due to the cheaper price. Only issue I have had is it does not like to be paired with wireless headphones. If they are paired it freezes while loading videos or does not play sound. Maybe its a headphone issue the wireless speaker works fine over BT. Hopefully that will be worked out at some point. Overall pretty happy with it for the price.

    Fabulous and easy to use. We are using it to cast the Occulus 2 onto the TV so we can watch our son play in virtual reality. The cast is so easy and high quality. The only issue - moving the chromecast from TV to another TV is not working .... seems like it only wants to work on the TV we originally connected it to. The kids can also cast their cell phone content to the TV. Works GREAT.

    I really love this streamer. So much so that this my 2nd one. This one goes in my TCL Roku tv and works great. I got it to control everything my roku remote did. However, my first one went in my TCL Android TV. For some weird reason, i get worse integration. I still have to use the OEM remote to controll volume and power from my bed, but the google tv remote can power itself off and change channels from that distance. Up close, it works with tv power and sound too.

    Performance is good but what a buggy device... Already had to reset it twice after updates (error screen) but is seemingly running fine now. Make sure to setup your volume controls for soundbars/arc separately in the advanced settings for best results! Just enough buttons on the remote for a spare TV with a few inputs. I would not recommend trying to use this as an everyday remote for an advanced Home Theatre setup.
