    This is the best media streamer for the price hands down! I have an Apple TV a Roku 4k stick and I recently threw away my Fire TV stick 4k because I couldn’t deal with the constant connection problems... I decided to give Google TV a try and I am honestly impressed. If you aren’t in the Apple ecosystem, or don’t want to spend $150 for a streaming device, Google TV is your answer

    Great Value...a huge leap since 1st generation Chromecast. The remote truly makes it smart since you are able to ask Google to do things not just with the tv but also with your smart home devices. I think the software needs some work though, the interface is sometimes too user friendly. But you get apple tv+ ...the only thing missing is apple airplay as far as software.

    This is a great device that you can bring anywhere and use it at the comfort of your own home. It has all of my streaming services which makes it so easy to access all of my entertainment needs. The remote makes it so simple to gi straight to netflix and youtube with the press of a button. Also the fact that you can cast from your mobile devices is great.

    Mediocre addition to the chromecast family.

    Overall the unit does as advertised, its a decently priced 4k media player and casting device. Passed that its very basic. The unit has an awkwardly small amount of apps which is surprising considering that it supports so many casting services. This is the main reason behind my lower rating. Secondly, it feels suprisingly low quality and poorly designed. The unit itself is fine but lacks ethernet support. The remote is the main disappointment. The plastic has a matte finish but scratches easy and is incredibly slippery and odd to hold, the button orientation feels awkward and uncomfortable. I wish that it had a headphone jack like the rokus to give easy private listening. Setup isnt horribly difficult for most people but I can see people who are less technologically inclined to get lost or confused easily. One thing i found very cool (at the same time lacking) is that even if you have an older TV or external audio system you are able to program the remote to control said hardware. But what im lost at is the lack of power control for the audio hardware, it only allows you to control volume. Overall the unit is nice but lacking in my opinion, i will be returning it until there is further refinement and development.

    Gregory, pleased with my purchase. The device is very intuitive and easy to use and set up for the breeze. I like the fact that it has the feature where I could do karaoke on my TV. It's great for parties.

    Great product. Easy to install/ connect. Only issue, Hulu ads lock up access, you need to exit hulu and restart. 4k access is great.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I have always used Fire Sticks and Roku, but ever since I got this I don't want to go back. I have all Google products in my house and this is so easy to use. You just sign into your Gmail and that is it. Then you choose your apps. I love this!

    We bought this to stream some concerts from Veeps from an iPad. But we now use it as our primary interface for everything on our Sony TV with Android OS. We cut the cord and use YouTube TV - and a bunch of other popular services. This works so much better than the Android interface on the TV. Do follow the recommendations to plug the power supply into an outlet - rather than your TV.

    Chromecast with Google TV installation was very smooth and it provides all the required functionality. The remote could be a little bigger in size to hold it steadily in the palm without touching some buttons accidentally. Wish they provide an integrated LAN wired port on the device as opposed to having to buy an additional device.

    Hands down my favorite streamer interface. It delivers my main apps. Passwords are often remembered by Google. Apps are simple and straight forward. Value is absolutely there with no real bloat. I prefer it over my Roku and Firestick.

    Great for older TV's without all the smart features. Awesome upgrade for Plex users that usually use their cellphone and the older grey chromecast (main reason for trying it was being able to view Plex screen on the TV and not my cellphone). Amazon prime supported. Remote powers on my HDMI connected TV & sound Receiver. Remote works without having to point it directly at receiver.
