    I had one of the original Chromecast and liked it but this device has so much more, I can't believe that I waited so long to buy it. I especially like the voice control the unit has.

    My LG TV did not support Discovery plus so I had to buy something since my subscription to this streaming service had started. It was seamless to install and could not be happier.

    I bought this chromecast about 2 months ago and its so much better than the others. It has its own remote that controls the tv and so much more!

    Great step up from previous Chromecast devices, bringing a full fledge user interface to the experience. The device is fairly responsive and has an incredible app library. Unfortunately, where this device falls short is App developers delivering support for the devices capabilities. Dolby Vision and Atmos are both heavily advertised with this device, however in apps like Disney+, those formats are currently absent. I made sure it wasn't my TV by testing it on an LG C9 OLED TV to assure that the TV could actually accept that format, but the issue persisted. After reading through several forums, it seems this issue has been known about since October of 2020, which makes me very doubtful on a fix being pushed. If Dolby Vision and Atmos aren't a must have, or you can wait for an eventual fix, I'd recommend this device over any other streaming device, hands down.

    The price almost seems too good to be true. I switched from Apple TV and Apple ecosystem to Google and tried a few streaming boxes until i landed on this dongle. How is it this good? It isn't as snappy as the latest Apple TV but other than that the network performance is great, HDR picture quality is just as good and it integrates with my other google home devices.

    The controller is nice to have. Super easy to set up if your familiar with google products. Overall it's a good product that does what it designed to do, turn your TV into a smart tv and works to cast your smartphone video to the tv easily as well.

    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.

    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
