||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chromecast rates a 5, Remote rates a 1. Will not pair with TV. Requires a lot of remote juggling to use. I have reset the remote 5 times and tried on 3 different TV's. Remote updates and pairs w chromecast but will not allow another device to be controlled by remote.

Posted .Hi there, Michael. Thank you for posting your review on Chromecast with Google TV (4K). We're sorry to learn that you're experiencing some difficulties with pairing the voice remote with your TV. In most cases, during the initial setup the remote pairs automatically. However, if your TV screen shows 'Start pairing', press and hold the 'Back' and 'Home' buttons on the remote until the light on the remote starts to pulse. If you've tried this before or if the issue still persists, then we recommend reaching out to our team of dedicated specialists so we can help identify the cause of the issue and provide you with additional troubleshooting steps that may resolve the issue. You can contact us on our Google Nest Help page here for immediate support: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Just a cheap advertising device for Google.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a fan of Google's in your face advertising stick. Google TV is bit lame. Gone are the App specific rows. Here to stay are aggregated recommended content. For me it was over 50% content I would have to purchase as it was for services I don't subscribe to. Add in a ton of HBO Max advertising (guess they paid a pretty penny), and stuck with a ton of YouTube suggest content even with the app uninstalled. Sorry, I don't want to watch junk YouTube content in my theater room. So overall there was about 20% of content displayed on the home screen I'd actually want to watch that I wouldn't have to pay more for. The remote is lackluster too. With the big push to iptv, the remote isn't geared towards watching live tv in any way. And the lack of real play/pause/rew/ff buttons is just annoying. Not sure who'bright idea it was to go away from it and have every app have different d-pad based controls. Not an Apple fan, but they got it right in that department. As for the device itself... Usb-c is nice for expansion with hubs and Ethernet. Navigation is snappy. Color options are horrible. No dark colors, really? Google still living in Apple's shadow for no reason. Been much happier with the Tivo Stream 4k. Much better remote for live TV apps. The older Android TV home screen is nicer. Just disable the few tivo apps and it's pretty much stock. But tivo stream is improving for the aggregated approach like Google is doing for google TV.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat

I would recommend this to a friendChromecast video freeze issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new Chrome cast has a lot of potential. But it also needs a lot of help. When I go to run my YouTube TV the videos sometimes stops while the audio continues. I bought the new ethernet connection and that works a little better but is still stutters once in a while. This seems to be a Software issue that need to be corrected by Google. I will not buy any more until this issue is fixed.
