    It is a four because there are really no directions to manage to go through programming, etc. The voice control is great but the manual function is hard to learn. We are still learning as there is a big curve and there is no straightforward way of learning except through trial and error.

    This device is the best equipment designed to add modern applications to any TV with an HDMI input. I don’t need to buy an AppleTV device anymore, just need to install the app in my new ChromeCast.

    Packs a punch for $50

    Can’t go wrong with this device for $50. Only downside is if you’re using a service that needs to download a specific amount of data to be stored then you might need a USB-C hub and a usb drive. But if you mostly do streaming of standard apps then you’re fine.

    The cheome is really cool. It connects to the oculus quest 2 and has no issue with connecting. It does take a bit of time to update when you first get it, so have time for that. Definitely worth getting this. It has most streaming apps on there.

    A bit buggy. Over a Chromecast Ultra, I like having a remote and onscreen guide. But my video freezes often and the whole system seems a bit unfinished. I don't like having to see services I don't subscribe to with no way to hide them. Also, stadia doesn't work on google tv. I may go back to Chromecast Ultra.

      Hi NickCornaglia,

      Thanks for sharing your feedback. We´re sorry to hear of the video freezing issue with your Chromecast with Google TV.

      Stay tuned to our social channels—Stadia functionality is coming in the first half of 2021. Given the success of Chromecast, we wanted to ensure the experience is right for our users before adding gaming functionality.

      We also recommend performing the following steps to try and isolate the video freezing issue:
      - Ensure that your Chromecast is connected to your 5 GHz Wi-Fi network.
      - Remove other connected devices on your Wi-Fi network and see if you will still encounter the same issue. Should you verify congestion, then we recommend contacting your internet service provider for resolution.
      - We recommend a Wi-Fi network with 25 Mbps download speed that can ensure smooth 4K experience.

      Should you still experience the same issue, then we may need to have a deeper look at what may be causing it. We'd love to help you and improve your experience if you can reach to us here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    Chromecast - Cutting the Cable Chord

    I decided to cut the chord (cable television), and go fully internet digital. The Google Chromecast became my tool of choice for non-smart TVs that I owned. Having a Google device that works well with YouTubeTV is important. They work great.

    was previously using the roku stick and changed to the chromecast with google. the change was predicated by the superior function of the google over that of roku and compatibility of google with utube usage. i also prefer the format of the google tv.

    Works well with non 4k tv. Loading times aren't too bad, or hardly noticeable. I love how I can also use it as a google assistant and check the weather. If you happen to have Arlo, you can view your camera feeds. I would imagine it works with your Nest camera's as well.
