    Better than the "smart" tv built into my tv. Snappy and the remote having universal features for power and volume is excellent.

    As expected with Google TV. I'd say the only negative is the remote buttons can be a little finicky.

    UI and navigation is super smooth and fluidic. Although, observed one issue with Netflix where the audio gets out of sync after like 20-30 mins of viewing. Seems like a known issue with Google TV

    The chromecast with google TV makes an older TV useful again! I live that it works with my best home also, so I can ask it to turn off.

    Works as advertised...not as quick to use like Amazon Fire Stick 4K Ultra as it is hard to switch inputs on TV (i.e., cable to streaming).

      Hello, cjn14. Thanks for posting a review and we’re glad that your Chromecast with Google TV (4K) works fine. We hear your concern about switching inputs, and we’d be happy to share this information with the right team for future improvements. Meanwhile, A range issue or wireless interference can cause your Chromecast to have performance issues. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the Chromecast and your router as these items could block the connection. For more help, read Troubleshooting wireless interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

      We also suggest clearing the app cache that might help as having a sizable amount of cache stored, would affect its performance. Here’s how:
      - From the Google TV home screen, in the top right, go to the user profile icon and select Settings.
      - Select Apps and choose the app you're having trouble with.
      - If you can't find it, select See all apps.
      - Select Clear cache and then Ok.
      - If clearing the app cache didn't work, you can try to reset your Chromecast with Google TV by following the steps here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654

      We hope you’re enjoying the Google TV experience. For any questions or concerns around the performance and features, visit us anytime and we’ll gladly help: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    This purchase since the day I’ve bought has been great. My Tv doesn’t have its own apps so using this has been ideal.
