    The best starting device for Android TV (now Google TV) hands down. Response is snappy and it has all of the expected features. You can use as much or a little of the feature you want to. This is the best streaming device for most people because of the flexibility.

    The remote needs attention

    This is one product I purchased immediately when it came out. Television reception on the second floor of our house was hit or miss, which is not desirable. One device was ruined by a surge in electricity during a storm and the other was not equipped with the appropriate wifi to steadily maintain a good image on the screen. (The router is Google Nest.) This new device was to be the answer. In terms of reception, much of the time it has been the answer, but the one aspect of this device that needs attention is the remote. It is simply too small and much too slick. Sometimes it is like trying to handle a wet fish with your bare hand. A somewhat larger remote that is not so slippery would be a significant improvement. Some devices are just too small, and this is one such device.

    I like this Google TV. It is fast enough. The good thing about it is that it recommends movies and shows to me. The cast function works really well. I wanted to give it 5 star. But I wish that it had more ram (only 2.0 gb). Also, there is no ethernet connection. I have to depend entirely on Wi-Fi. Buying an adapter to connect to Ethernet costs another $20.00.

    Its good not great. its slow to open apps and to play a movie its even slower. the UI is nice and its nice to have almost every app available. hopefully apple tv app comes to it eventually. oh one more thing took me a long time to set up turns out it was my wifi out that day so not sure who to blame but it was a lot harder to set up than my Chromecast ultra

    The Chromecast with Google TV is exactly what I was hoping it would be. Have used a few other streaming devices, but this one for my needs is the best out there. I really like the fact that the dedicated YouTube button can be configured for YouTube TV if you want.

    This is hands down one of the best Google, or even tech products in general of the decade. They've done an amazing job with the controller - super intuitive, and Google TV is fantastic, especially with YouTubeTV, which finally gets an EPG (program guide). Amazing!

    Any TV becomes a smart TV. A little redundant if you already have a smart TV but its a great way to upgrade my kids TVs.

    I absolutely love this new Chromecast!!!! I am a google user, but I also use lots of other streaming services, and it so so nice to have it all in one place. Only con is that FF and rewind function take some getting used to, but I would definitely buy one again!

    I switched from Fire Sticks to this product due to the casting ability. It has allowed my TV's to serve as a larger monitor for my laptop which has helped considerably working from home more due to COVID-19. No complaints or issues whatsoever.

    Major upgrade from the first generation I have been using. Remote works great, though I'm not sure if I like how small the remote is. Overall it does what's advertised, no complaints.

    Excellent device to upgrade an old tv to a smart tv. I lost the remote in a move but I could not buy just the remote, so I purchased this set. Works great.
