    Nice little gadget, turns a dumb TV into a smart one with access to ALL the popular streaming services. With the right cables and setup options you probably won’t need any of your current remotes because hdmi-Cec allows it to control all the devices connected to your TV. Got two for my house and two for my parents. Google lets you share with six family members. Very satisfied with this even though YouTube TV has increased in price twice since I’ve subscribed.

    Long time Roku user, I am liking this interface better so far, and the recommendations seem more on point. I may swap out my other Roku setup for this soon.

    This Chromecast with Google TV is great. I really enjoy that they added a free game section to the app lineup, I can also speak my request for shows.The only downside is I still need my TV remote to turn the power off and you can't access their Stadia platform.

    Purchased this unit to add Android TV to my family room. This unit features the latest interface which they've named "Google TV" I personally don't like it. It's buggy compared to my other Android TV units. I also prefer the old interface abit more as I like being able to install my streaming apps and having a similar experience to that of my Android phone. This tries to blend it all together into a more unified entertainment focused fashion. I'm sure it will get there eventually after some updates. However, I'd suggest you save your money. There are many other excellent options available currently from the TiVo Stream 4K to Roku. I'd get one of those over this for the price. Google has a way of launching things in beta and working out the kinks over time. If you don't mind the initial phase, I'm sure eventually this unit will be well worth it. It's just not there yet.

    A great upgrade from traditional chromecast. Finally a clean, easy way to view all the streaming services. I also love that I can turn on/off my tv and AV receiver with this remote

    Fast. Easy Setup. Gave 1 star less as in numerous apps the directional pad either works as forward/reverse or left/right arrows and not both. Wish it had dedicated forward/reverse and l/r arrows. Also a dedicated play/pause is needed for the same reason.

    The remote is a nice add, and love the promise google tv has. It really just needs a bit more work for seamless connectivity. Too many glitches from time to time on connection or menu staying up while casting v playing off the screen menu.

    Great option if you are looking to "cut the cable" and move to streaming. Super easy set-up. Works well with TV and soundbar. The remote could be bigger.
