||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally Chromecast with a remote! This device integrates perfectly with my Samsung soundbar and my Samsung TV and I am able to control everything with my Chromecast remote. It loads up apps very quickly and makes switching between streaming services a breeze. This is the Chromecast I have been wanting for years!

I would recommend this to a friendGreat alternative to built in software on TVs
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. Faster than the fire tv interface built into the tv I have. I would buy this again since it’s good for the price I paid.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for anything except Atmos
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent streamer! Great UI and very smooth. All the apps I want and need with a great remote. The only downside is for anyone wanting to get Atmos out of it. Waited three updates to get problem fixed but it still doesn’t work. Any Atmos soundtrack and the sound just doesn’t play on any app. I switched it from my main tv to my room tv where Atmos isn’t needed and it replaced my Fire Cube TV.
I would recommend this to a friendChromecast with Google tv
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm extremely satisfied with this chromecast. I used to use multiple Chromecasts(2nd Gen) but this one tops them all. The remote it very easy to use, functions with all my other Google devices and I love how it allows you to have personal recommendations on movies/shows.

I would recommend this to a friendWorth the upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product has made the chromecast experience a million time better. It's great to not always have to reach for your phone or use your voice to change what you want to watch. The remote is very intuitive and easy to use. If you love your chromecast and want to take it to the next level, don't hesitate to upgrade.

I would recommend this to a friendNo TV should go without one of these!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google TV is such a great ecosystem for watching all of your favorite streaming services. Having access to the Play Store is also a huge plus for some of the hard to find apps that do not come on the other streaming devices. 100% recommend this to anyone even if you already have a smart TV.

I would recommend this to a friendAlmost perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works great and the Google TV dashboard is nice. The only thing stopping this from being a 5 star is that it can lag at times.

Nifty controller & app interface
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For streamers on devices w/ less than optimal controllers [my OEM controller used ~ 2 ea. AA batteries per week] this Chromecast w/ Google TV is excellent. Good apps. Lots of user-friendly interactivity. Importantly, battery life good. Installation well-automated for my device. Good value, too.
I would recommend this to a friendBest smart stick on the market.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easily the best smart stick available. The user interface is clean and simple. If you already have a Google (or YouTube) account it makes setup of this device quick.
I would recommend this to a friendGoogle Chromecast
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great streaming features. Very simple to use and set up. Remote very convenient
I would recommend this to a friendMediocre disappointment for a 4K streaming device
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cons: Aggregate search feature that is so heavily touted works poorly. For example, a voice search for "InuYasha" instead brings up "InuYasha The Final Act" (the sequel series) and only on Netflix, even though the first 54 episodes are on many services. A voice search for "InuYasha Episode 55" brings up "InuYasha" only on Netflix (which only has 54 episodes) and fails to inform you that episode 55 is on Hulu (supposedly supported by this search feature). Searching "The Empire Strikes Back" only shows results in Disney Plus and in my Google Play library, even though Prime Video, Vudu, and Movies Anywhere are installed. 4K is only 30Hz refresh rate universally on this device (as opposed to the Amazon 4K Fire TV stick at 60 Hz). Movies Anywhere doesn't support 4K on this device. Apple TV is not available on this device. If you have a Fire TV Recast, you cannot use it with this device. You are better off spending the same amount of money on a 4K Fire TV stick and sideloading Vudu (if you use Vudu) using the Android TV version. Pros: Nice UI, similar to Android TV. First Chromecast with a remote and without dependancy on casting. You can still cast to this device just like a legacy Chromecast device.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Google Team
Posted .Hi Chriv,
We appreciate your feedback on Chromecast with Google TV. We're sorry to hear of the difficulty you have with the search feature for the Google Assistant and the refresh rate.
To improve the search experience with your Chromecast with Google TV, we recommend making your voice commands more specific by adding the name of your preferred media service provider (like Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, etc.) with the title of the video you want to watch. A good example would be, "Hey Google! Play InuYasha episode 54 on Netflix." You can learn more about voice-supported partners here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7214982?hl=en
To get the best experience with the 4K resolution and 60Hz refresh rate for your Chromecast with Google TV, we suggest customizing your video experience by adjusting your display settings. You can follow the steps below:
1. Turn on your Chromecast and then at the top right of your TV screen, select your profile and then Settings .
2. Select Display & Sound.
3. You’ll have the option to adjust your display settings between Match content and Allow game mode, depending on the features available on your TV.
4. You may also set it to Resolution & Frame Rate which will let you adjust the screen resolution and frame rate.
We're always working to improve your experience. Should you still face the same issue, then we may need to have a look into. Please feel free to contact us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp
