    Love it. I have several Apple TVs, had older Rokus and older Chromecasts and usually prefer my Apple TV but this new Chromecast is a nice upgrade. Interface is slick and the remote is so much better than the previous Apple TV and still may be better than the newest Apple TV I just purchased.

    Great device to keep you entertain for hours. Easy to use with the (Google Assistant) button on the remote. You can access most of the streaming platforms including your collection of Movies and Videos on your Google Play Store account and Youtube. You get a lot of features for the price. Highly recommend it.

    Great fire-stick equivalent! Superior in every way to the firestick. Faster start up, can access frequented shows from the main menu without opening apps, and the google assistant works flawlessly in conjuction with the nest mini or google assistant speakers. Only knocking off one star because some apps such as HBO Max does not let you continue shows directly from the main menu, not an issue with Netlix or Disney however.

    Love this little streaming device. Has access to all my streaming services. Price is perfect. Wish UI was more streamlined. Controller was almost perfect if they made it programmable to choose which app to open and battery was rechargeable. Ability to use nest audio as movie speakers would be an amazing addition.

    Great upgrade from my OG chromecast. I like the option to have Dolby vision on all content but generally recommend to turn that feature off. Easy to set up and a bit snappier than ps4 streaming apps and about the same as my TV's built in apps. Nice for apps like Hulu, HBOMAX, VRV and others that aren't on my tv.

    Great Benefit from the Older Chromecast

    I had the prior Chromecast. The Ultra has a remote control which we find very useful. The 4K was also something we wanted. The TV feature also remembers shows from different sources like Netflix, HBOmax, etc. Thus from the main screen you can instantly start a show from various sources. Setup was easy.

    Fast and easy to setup. I suggest getting this 4k version because its faster than my original 1080p Google TV. And has different colors so i like that

    Just as easy to use as the original Chromecast, but with the added convenience of a remote. As a bonus, some of the phone apps will load on the streamer, so you don't even need to use your phone to browse and watch! I wish I could add a remote to my older Chromecast, because it adds so much convenience.

    Easy access to many online services. It's nice that it provides information on movies being available on different streaming services prior to purchasing a movie. Only complaint is looking at my google library is a pain because they show up in a line alphabetically that is a little cumbersome with 150+ movies. There should be an option for a grid view like on the phone app.

    Pretty straight forward to use. Connects easy and hides away easy. Remote works well, and will also control power and volume on my tv. Have not figured out the multiple profiles with Youtube tv, but have not spent a lot of time on it either.

    Chromecast finally has a remote. Unless you are strictly or mostly an Amazon Prime Video user, this is the best streaming stick to buy. Can Cast content from devices, and Google finally has a remote and interface. Great product. Especially great if you are already a google home and google assistant user.

    Chromecast 4K, Great Addition to TV

    The Google Chromecast 4K allows me to load apps on my smart tv that the tv itself does not support. , The 4K Chromecast also highlights on the tv picture. The picture is very vivid and sharp.

    It’s ok. Nice UI.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I like the UI. The remote is tiny, which isn’t my favorite. We got this for our bedroom, where we rarely watch tv. My wife went to go turn it on today (we purchased the sunrise color Oct.10th) and it said it had corrupt data and needed to be factory reset. It’s probably been used 5 times in that month and a half. Not the best sign. Would return back to Google and just get another fire-stick in all honesty.

    I literally bought this to get the picture quality for the WW84 movie release on Christmas day. I have had my other chrome cast for 4 years and it worked great and has been sent to the guest room tv but MAN, this remote and the picture quality is insane! Suck it up and upgrade your Chromecast today!

    My biggest complaint with the old Chromecasts was the lack of a remote. It was always a hassle to use my phone to cast apps. With the addition of the remote and with amazing features, the Chromecast with Google TV is a homerun! Amazing picture quality, easy to use, and backed by the Google name.

    Google Chromecast works great. Love the new remote that comes with it. Helps with accessing YouTube videos and Netflix when I'm ready to watch at a moments notice. Love the color, picture shows through clear. And starts connected to my network. The previous version jumped offline occasionally.

    The user interface of this shows why Google is at the top of the game. So much easier to use, quick & snappy with no lag. Google makes it so easy to sign in to all your streaming apps. Can't believe this device was $50. all of the features of the $200 Apple TV 4k, and only about 25% of the cost!

    Really nice way to turn any TV into a smart TV, plus it hooks up really easily to any Google accounts. I had it hooked up to a Hisense 4K TV and it was significantly faster and more reliable than the built in smart apps. The remote is a nice touch but easily falls between the cushions.

    Google Chromecast purchase.

    The Google chromecast was easy to install and set up. Streaming from the phone or the laptop was ok. The apps that come with it were not the greatest due to them not being able to load most of the time. But overall happy with the purchase. Mainly use it to stream games in the projector anyways. Also the remote control addition is a plus. Compared to older models that have to use your phone for everything.
