Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great upgrade. Replaced my built in chomecast and had made my sony oled brand new again. Easy install, and better value the apple tv, to get the apple+ app.

Makes the Chromecast experience much more useful friendly. Helped me replace my entire cable plan by having something with a physical remote to navigate the streaming services

Big improvement over prior Chromecasts. Sometimes comes up with glitches that can be solved by reseting. App availability is not as extensive as that of Apple TV. Overall the interface is very user friendly and shows the programs you likely want to see without much effort on your part.

Best investment as a cable alternative. I have one on every TV in the house now. The remote is perfectly simple and the interface is right on

Got this device to stream iFit on the TV in the workout room. Works great! Also plan to take it on trips so we can stream Netflix, Amazon, etc. without using our personal accounts on unknown devices.

Tried Roku and Firestick, still have them.. this is my second google streaming device and love it. I like that I can control it from my phone so no need for a second remote. Rock solid device.

This is the best. With the remote it gathers all shows in one location, even if you do not have access to the APPs. The remote makes it easy to navigate and google voice makes searching easy. Highly recommend.

Great product! At first, after setting it up, I was having a problem where the tv screen would go black every so often. After a quick google search, I found out that the problem was that I had it connected to a CEC HDMI port. After switching it to another port and disconnecting it and reconnecting it to the power, it now doesn’t do that. Works well and I love the tv controls for power and volume. It is a bit awkward though that the volume controls are on the side but it is similar to a phone or any modern day mobile device. It works a lot better than the airtv mini I had which would disconnect very often. Gives me peace of mind knowing its designed in house by Google so the software and hardware work together.

I have used Chromecast devices since Gen 1. But this is by far their BEST! Being able to navigate apps and media from it's very own remote, is a game changer. It's about time they did this.

The interface is very friendly, and it reacts very quick when compare with other products.

It’s a good start to where streaming devices need to go. I like how it integrates all my services together. It focusing more on the movie or show instead of the service itself once everything is linked. They did make some odd choices though. Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos are only supported on Netflix. Why? I e for tons of 4K movies that have both but they only play in HD and 5.1 audio. They need to add the Apple TV app. Roku and Fire have it and it is needed for those of us that use Apple Movies. It integrates well with YouTube TV but still lacks some features that it offers on my Apple TV, which is odd. Channel previews play on Apple TV but not on Google TV, or any other service. Google should have all features on their own device. Hoping they fix some of these in future updates.

We've been using this primarily for YouTube/Google TV, HBOMax, Netflix and Hulu. It also handles a lot of other services we rarely use. It does much better channel aggregation and discovery than our TiVo Streams 4K and would recommend this over that for YouTube TV subscribers. This means that there is a "Home Screen" that shows your content from multiple streaming services all in one spot, so you can see when new shows are available. Avoids having to hunt for them all the time. It also has it's own "Live" view without having to open the YouTube TV App. We've now purchased three of these and other than the buttons turning a bit yellow with use (why do they make remotes white?!) it works great.

This is a great system for streaming. The only issue I had was connecting this to hotel networks. I was never able to connect it to any even after talking with the Hotel Techs.

I have the Chromecast on another TV that I have to use my phone to navigate, control the TV, kind of a hassle. This new Chromecast with remote is MUCH nicer to use, thinking of replacing the other one now!

Very intuitive interface and definitely quality built. Have some small issues where volume button doesn’t work randomly but it may because it’s plugged into my receiver. Reason for 4 and not 5 stars is because it’s difficult to get the 5.1 audio working due to compatibility issues.

It's great if I did not have a shield TV, I think the shield TV interface is better as it does show more of what is going on with what you watch from the channels you use more often. I think I would still buy this over Roku and FireTV but Shield TV has worked better for now.

Great GUI interface and assistant app works great. I have added this to every smart TV in my home. Also use voice commands to view Nest cameras on the TV.

Love it easy to use,makes your tv look new as you can access the item and see all new shows and app if you dont already have a smart tv ofcourse.

This is a great streaming device. If I hadn’t gotten a TV that has Google TV built in, I wouldn’t have gotten rid of it. Everything is responsive and I’m a big fan of the remote.

This was as wonderful as I thought it would be!! Easy to use and maintain the use of the controller, again I would or will buy two more!
