    Works on an older tv and the newer ones too. I sometimes need to reset it if it has been a while since we watched the tv in another room.

    This has exceeded my expectations tenfold. It literally has all the streaming services including HBO Max that Fire sticks don't have and Kodi which you don't need a roundabout way to install. Then if u have an Android phone, casting is real simple. Best purchase I had in a long while

    Excellent device. Turns basic LED TV into streaming, smart TV with minimal setup. Like Google TV as it carries all the top streaming channels. This was for my sister—she is ecstatic to have Discovery Plus and other apps in addition to cable TV. Recommended.

    New version is much better and worth the upgrade

    This newest version is far superior to the old version that required you to use your phone to cast. We have a few of the earlier iterations of chromecast and I’m ready to upgrade all of them to this version. The remote is simple and easy to use; even children can figure it out.

    Turns any old TV into a smart TV. It turned my mom’s nearly 20 year old TV into a cutting edge display. Goolge’s interface is much nicer than Fire TVs and Roku.

    Works well with both of my TVs Hisense and Sanyo. It was fairly simple to set up. Remote is compatible and will turn the TV on and off as well as adjust the volume. The remote has a button on it to activate voice control but you can't use voice control from other devices.

    Plus: Home screen that gives you previews of what is trending or new. Hooks up with Google Assistant and comes in handy to control the TV from anywhere. It saves preferences and profiles. You can even watch TikTok on it. You can also talk into the remote as you would your phone when using Google Assistant. The Youtube and Netflix buttons come in handy because for whatever reason after watching a show we usually default to opening one of those 2 apps. Cons: I like the simplicity of only the 2 streaming service buttons, but part of me wonders what if we had more (such as hulu, hbo, disney etc) plus The navigation buttons are very similar to an old ipod (button with circular directional surrounding). They look and feel nice, but at times the buttons mash and you try to move right but end up moving down or up. That is the only reason why i gave a 4 star, if the buttons didnt mash i would give it 5 stars all the way!

    The setup was straightforward. I had some trouble opening the remote control to insert the batteries but this was a minor problem. Logging into the different streaming services was also easy. It was difficult to find some apps, though, such as the MasterClass app.

    Works as expected. Very responsive. I ended up replacing all the Fire sticks in my home because these are much faster. It's nice being able to cast from my phone or just use the remote. Definitely recommend if you are invested in the Google ecosystems.

    Very easy to set up. the voice search is pretty cool. As with all Google devices, it knows all of your accounts and searches them for whatever movie or show you are looking for. Connectivity is very solid. Plus you can control your tv's power and volume with it.

    Very pleased that Chromecast now has a dedicated remote, but I still use my phone on occasion to cast. Also like the phone app that emulates the remote. The only drawback so far is the Chromecast remote appears only to control power to one external device.

    THE BEST $50 STREAMER OUT! I'm a bit of a addict when it comes to these devices. I own them all, from the Shield Pro, to a few of those Android TV Boxes you see on Amazon and most everything in between. Believe me when I say this is the most complete device at the $50 price point.

    If you cut the cord or simply want a reliable streaming device with a remote and don't want to pay much, this is the one. Bought one for me originally months ago, just picked up one for my dad who had the Roku stick and he hasn't looked back.
