Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was reluctant to purchase this as I already had a functioning smart TV. However, the Chromecast streaming service is far superior to what you'll get with any TV. The remote is awesome--small, easy to use, no unneeded button, and has an excellent voice command feature. And the remote controls my home theatre audio receiver.

Absolutely wonderful! I love the remote as sometimes it’s a pain to use my phone. Guests can even use it with ease. Thank you!! Only issue I’m certainly having is streaming Hulu. Not certain to the cause, but plays fine casting through my phone.

The chromecast itself works about the same as earlier models. The user interface was workable. A nice touch was the ability to program the YouTube button to go to wither YouTube or YouTube TV. The interface was workable, without being outstanding. The remote was another matter. It's clunky and a bit hard to navigate with. It's small, especially for big hands, and it can use more buttons and features. They do have a remove control that's based in a mobile phone, but it doesn't work much better. One annoying trait of this device is that it goes offline if not used for a given length of time. The old Chromecasts would show a selection of background images, and that is what this version sould have done by default. Instead, it just goes black, so switching HDMI inputs to the one Chromecast is on will result in a blank screen and the television informing the user that there is no HDMI signal. Pushing a button on the remote brings up the interface after a few seconds. The YouTube interface seems inferior to the one on Roku. Also, Tubi does not have the My List function on the sidebar as it does on other streaming devices. Ther were a few other apps with similar problems. I returned it and went back to using Roku, which can still access YouTube TV through the regulare YouTube app. Perhaps the next version or an update will bring better functionality.

We love our Google TV dongles, they just work so well. Couple that with the ability to add my children's accounts so I can monitor/control their access and it's a win win. We have one on every TV in the house that supports it!

This was not an easy task from the to begin with. I have a Pioneer receiver that has Chromecast built in and I had a lot of trouble getting it to work. As a matter of fact I did not get it to work on my receiver at all even talking to a tech so I did the next best thing, I went to Best Buy and bought the Chromecast and had it up and running in 5 minutes.

Finally a remote. Great product, very snappy, and great picture quality.

Really a nice compact unit. I had a Chromecast from years ago and it was so clunky and unattractive. This one is hidden behind the TV so is unobtrusive, it works well, was super easy to set up.

This derivative android tv device is awesome as it comes. You’ll find everything you need for your streaming needs. All streaming services are present. Features fast reliable wifi both 2g and 5g. Setup takes less than 10 minutes. I have a TV set with smart capabilities built in but it was too slow. This device ended that headache.

Awesome choice! Very easy to navigate plus it comes with a remote.

I loved this device. It gets both direct streaming and the chromecast functionality on the same device. I was able to get rid of and old chromecast and relocate my Roku to another TV. The only issue I found was that it doesn't go straight to it when I turn it on, even with the right settings on both the device and my TV. When I press the home button, then it makes the TV to change to it's HDMI input. Navigation, picture and sound are great and apps content is more than enough.

Love it. If you are like me and thought that your smart TV was sufficient, you are wrong. This was the best upgrade and a must have. In addition, the Google TV interface really helps streamline all your services in one place. It even begins to learn your interests and provide recommendations all in one spot. no more flipping through your various streaming services.

Works well and it is so easy to hook up and install. Walks you through every step. Highly recommend. We have one on every TV, from an old 780p plasma to a newish 4k set. All brands, too.

a very good devise. I enjoy the remote and the home screen capabilities.

I currently have a Roku TV, but just moved in with a roommate and it didnt allow multiple user profiles. We added this on to our tv, and it has been wonderul. It keeps up with where we both end on our shows, gives us our own recommendations, and the user interface is immaculate.

Looks very sleek! Works fast and is way easy to use.

Good price, easy to setup and use. Offers access to multiple channels.

I’m able to integrate my Streaming shows on one platform and watch on 4K. Remote is easy to use and the options are smooth.

I have to admit I wasn’t too keen on getting another chromecast. But after purchasing this one I love it so much actually more than my Roku. The remote could be a little bit better it’s OK just a bit too slippery but the interface is very smooth and easy to work with. I just will be glad when the infinity out finally comes to chrome cast after that so Rocky I’m out.

It is a paradigm leap for Google as I have been using Chromcast for years and I always feel it is good but can’t compete other streaming devices for lacking many functions. This time Google has made a turning points and changed my perspective, this version is awesome snd user interface is friendly and easy to navigate. Smooth and fast browsing. I like it so far!

This Android TV chromecast dongle works very well. The addition of the remote control was all that it used to lack. The process in the chromecast isn't amazing, but it gets the job done. Very handy for traveling.
