Customer Ratings & Reviews

Was a big fan of roku. Spent alot of money buying the ultras. But after so many of them going out I decided to switch to Google and never looked back. And much cheaper.

I’ve been growing bored of my Roku’s tired old home screen and features. This thing is quicker, gives better content recommendations, and is cheaper than my Roku Ultra was. Plus I can tell the assistant to adjust my thermostat with the remote. Nice.

I got one to replace my original chromecast. This is way better than the original. a must have if you do not have a smart tv.

Best streamer at$50!I downloaded 3rd party apps,so I can use Zoom Video app and other apps on my TV. Google Duo is great for video chatting.I attached j5Create webcam to CGTV using USB C hub.Now I can Video chat from my couch controlling with Logitech K 40 0 plus keyboard. CGTV remote control can controls TV also. Excellent product from Google at so low price!

At first I didn't really like it with a new UI similar to Amazon's firestick but they have an app only mode to only show you the apps you have downloaded. After I put it in this mode, I loved it. The UI is cleaner and simple. The device also runs snappier and less hot. I'm glad they had that option. And can compare to my Apple TV but definitely beats it for the price.

Cut the cord 5 years ago, started with Roku's, but the devices started to die after a few years. Moved to the new Chromecast, and it's been awesome. I love how you don't need to go into every app to see what's new or what you've been watching. GoogleTV does that all for you.

It works great. I can cast from my Desktop PC and work from my easy Chair.

Installation was very easy as was the setup. We only ran into one issue when after installing the soundbar disconnected as if competing with the Chromecast hardware. Somehow the connection between both was made on the TV and now we can enjoy watching all our family favorites! My son prefers this device over the Firestick, although I think they work relatively the same.

Great streaming device! Easy to setup! Great picture and sound quality!

I travel quite a bit for work, so I purchased this as my travel companion to keep me occupied while on business. Our home is outfitted with several Google smart home products, so my viewing preferences and options followed me wherever I went. Simple and easy to use if you're familiar with the layout.

If you have a non-smart TV or an older one that does not use the newer apps, then this device will breathe new life into your TV. My TV works just fine, but it could not use a lot of the new streaming apps. This gives me access to everything I need, and the home page allows me to easily access the content of any app with ease.

My mom doesn’t have smart tv, but when Japanese TV channel switched their business to streaming service, this was the best choice for her to easily watch Japanese TV as before.

Ok. Long story short. I wanted to get away from the Amazon Ecosystem and after how Amazon wrongful treated me during their Prime Day event. After they would not honor their Prime Day price and coupons to replace a lost item, I said, bye. Anyways. The Chromecast with Android TV is pretty much a chromcast device where you can cast contents from your device to the screen. What's even better is now that you have Android TV built in so you don't need to use a mobile device or PC to watch youtube, Netflix, pandora, spotify, etc. You can do this all from Android TV. It's nice for the non-smart TVs or projectors out there. The interface is pretty simple. If you have an Android TV before, like Sony or Hensine (Did I spell that right?), Then you know how to operate this device. If you don't have one, think of it as a FireTV but without the heavy amazon interface. Very simple, gets to the point, and you can find what you want. This does have Google Assitance if you ever need it. I haven't used it yet. The only gripe I have is that it will not reconnect to your BT soundbar to headphones. You would need to reconnect them every time you power on the Chromecast. Power is through USB to a power adapter, so you won't be able to plug it into a USB port on your TV or projector. Overall a great alternative to the Amazon ecosystem.

Easy to install. Easy to use. Very fast. A very high quality product.

Best streamer on the market. Extremely easy to use and navigate. Having the chanel guide right there is awesome

I love this. So easy to use. The remote makes a huge difference.

We have one of these on each TV with a YouTube TV subscription and we haven’t looked back. Setup was super easy and easy sync with my google account. We even take the YouTube TV on vacation with us and stay connected. Devices sit nice and flush behind the TV or behind the Receiver.

Works well. I like to listen to my internet radio stations through my home entertainment equipment and lost the ability to do that. My Total Tech rep suggested this and the user interface is better than the TV's and I can listen to music again when not watching TV. Easy to set up.

Simply Amazing google device. Very snappy and remote fits great in hand

overall runs very smoothly. the setup through the home app i felt was a little rough and could be smoother. finding apps outside of the default apps was a little difficult but once you know what your doing the device is very smooth compared to firesticks and rokus that i have in the house as well.
