    Feel like these use to be better. No 4k options. Interface a bit laggy. But since roku doesn't use cast anymore it's necessary. Both that i got i had to set up multiple times to get sound for whatever reason. Interface and settings need upgraded

    I love this. I have google home and now I just tell it what to watch and it puts it on the TV. I also love how it combines the streaming services all on one page which makes it great for finding something to watch.

    This has been a great purchase. I have an 8 year old smart tv. I decided to go streaming instead of boxes. I went through 3 Rokus in about 7 months. They kept dying out. When I needed to get yet another device, I decided to try Chromecast. So far it's been a great decision. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I can't seem to load Spectrum on it. A Geek Squad guy couldn't do it either. But, I can cast everything from my tablet or phone. That works fine, but a direct app would be preferable. Glad I decided to try this device!

    Best amongst the rest. For the price you will not find a better streaming device. It is easy to use, the UI is fool proof, and it loads things very quickly.

    This made it very easy to cast from my Android phone to the Chromecast that I plugged into a BenQ projector.

    The UI is really nice but there is a lot of glitchiness and its a little more difficult to cast directly from your phone. Its more of a firestik/Roku than a traditional chomecast. My old chromecast was gettung old so it was frequently shutting off. This chromecast will also randomly bave the sceen turn pink, which forces you to turn it off and on. Theres a lot of updates that will need to be implemented if we are being honest but its a great solution to most media needs. Ive even streamed steam link to the Chromecast, which works great on games like Stray or Bioshock but isnt bery great with fast paced games (Rocket League, Sekiro).

      Hi there Jakevns, thanks for trying out the new Chromecast with Google TV (4K). We're glad to hear that you're liking the UI. However, we do apologize for the glitches and difficult experiences you had when casting from your mobile phone and when streaming fast paced games.

      Chromecast typically requires a high speed Internet connection of at least 20 Mbps and a reliable Wi-Fi network connection. For faster paced games, it may even require a higher bandwidth. We recommend checking if your current Internet bandwidth is possibly congested, or that it may not be enough to enable the best viewing experience with Chromecast. Removing some of your connected devices to free up some bandwidth space, and trying out Chromecast will help verify the issue. If you verify congestion, we recommend contacting your Internet service provider to check your connection and upgrade it if needed.

      Alternatively, you may also contact our Chromecast support team for further assistance if the issue proves to be persistent. We may need to take a much closer look at your Chromecast device and see how we can help you best. You're more than welcome to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Easy way to turn anything with an HDMI port into a smart tv. Only down side is the slippery remote...buy a silicone remote cover. Supports 4k UHD and Dolby Vision for less than a decent 4K UHD disk player.

    works much faster than my vizio interface, the only drawback i have is that i cannot seem to get it working for amazon prime. I've read online that this was a problem in the past and that it should have been fixed but i am still unable to get it to work. Everything else about it works great and works fast.

    This an awesome little device for the price. I love the interface, the integration with the Google Home package. The only issue I found was that Disney+ is not compatible with Dolby Atomos, Netflix and Amazon Prime are, but no the disney+ app. The interface is also top notch comparting to Amazon Fire and Roku.

    They finally made a chrome cast that’s worth the money. This one finally features built in channels so you don’t have to use your phone for everything. And it has a remote so you can change the volume.

    This was the 2nd Chromecast I've bought. They work well with our TV's. They were easy to setup and are a snap to work with. The remote and Google TV format are an order of magnitude improvement over the original Chromecast.

    This new Chromecast with Google TV was super easy to setup. I needed a way to install a couple of basic apps on a simple non smart tv. Now the TV is smart. The best part is that I don't need to cast from the phone.

    that remote makes it a breeze navigating the channels rather than using your mobile device to cast it every time. And a lot of apps. There is no lag either to navigate the ui. I would say, worth the 50 bucks.
