    Was using the chromecast ultra, which was buggy when casting. This still accepts casting from devices but is much easier to use with its on screen interface with the remote. Can also connect to your wireless headphones, priceless additions overall.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Works really well, I love the Google system and how easy it is, dont drop the controller though because the batteries and cover come off and go flying fairly easy

      The batteries and cover don't seem to be very secure, do they? Don't worry, we'll share your feedback to help us improve future designs. madebygoogle

    Love this thing. I can turn on and off by tv since it's connected to my Google home. Has a ton of apps. I moved to this from a roku which I was happy with but may like this better. It's great that this comes with a remote but can also use a remote app from Google if I need to. It has tons of apps too and gives me the ability to cast my phone screen to the TV.

    I have had the Chromecast with Google TV for about 7 months and I am extremely happy with. It has my library, plenty of apps and choices for movies and television. It is very user friendly and it is a joy to get to watch so many shows on my Chromecast with Google TV. I highly recommend this product

    IMO better than Fire TV

    I have owned Fire TV 4k stick for a long time. The sound is always way off on Fire TV. I have tried all sorts of options, but it never is in sync, not even close. If you fix it for one steaming, it messes up for another. I saw lot of good reviews and thought of trying Chromecast. Also I am an android user and have YouTube TV account, so it seemed like a natural fit. Overall I am so happy with Chromecast. The menu is simple and yet effective. The suggestions I get are very much aligned to my taste. The remote is super fast. I like the remote, although I would have liked it to be little bigger, little too small for a average user hand. All is not good with Chromecast yet, and may be future firmware release may fix some of the issues - Like for ex- even though I have updated my services I still get recommendations from services I have deselected. For ex, I do not have Disney+ and have deselected it, I still see recommendation for Disney+ movies. I guess google algorithm gives priority to your taste and recommends movies. Also sometime I see a movie listed as available on YouTube TV but when you click on it, it is available on some other streaming service. So there are some glitches that are annoying, however not enough to not own this product and recommend. It’s a keeper.

    This is by far the best way to watch streaming services on a non smart tv. I had an old tv that was sitting around and i didnt ever think i would be able to use it and make it like a smart tv but by getting the new google chromecast it made it so much easier. It is so easy to set up and would reccomend it to anyone.

    Adding First Totally WIFI Television

    We are an older couple and just added our first totally WIFI supported television to our house. We needed the Chromecast to make sure that we got the channels provided by Spectrum and that we got the streaming services we subscribe to offering 4K. The Chromecast was one of the choices and it worked great. We also appreciate the Best Buy curbside pick up.

    I love this streamer. I've had everything out there, recently tried the Tivo device (3 times, all horrible) since I have Tivo throughout the house. I get HBO Max with my cell plan but it wouldn't run on Tivo. This device has every service I need and keeps it all in one place. It's a little slow to connect when switching over to it but overall I'm happy with it.

    The Chromecast w/ Google TV was plug and play out of the box. Attached it to my TV and connected it to my Android phone without any problems. Now I'm watching Disney+, Netflix, and YouTube in the comfort of my living room. It's a great device to access your favorite shows. It was a worthwhile purchase and I recommend this for others.

    This is by far my favorite hub for all my entertainment apps. It’s really snappy, integrates well into my google home ecosystem (which is extensive) and has a price you can’t argue with. Only issue at this point is the lack of a Apple TV app. I have a huge movie collection on iTunes and they way you access them currently is trash. Other than that, it’s awesome!

    This is a great option for anyone looking for a simple way to add streaming services to their TV. I've even added a few of these to my "smart" TVs because the interface is so much easier and more useful.

    10x more powerful and easy to use than any built-in TV interface, Plus super convenient with casting from other devices and I love the Google Assistant button to use your voice to open apps and for general info.

    One of the best streaming devices out there. Dead simple to use and supports 4K and HDR. The apps are all linked to your Google account so if you're an Android user this is a breeze. Honestly one of the best Google products to date. I like the added remote with this model. I don't always want to use my phone.

    I sold my Apple TV to move to this and I've been very happy with it. The interface is straight forward and the apps are smooth and work well. I use rabbit ears with the HDHomerun app, Hulu, Prime, Netflix, and a bunch of different cable apps like Discovery. Everything works very well. My ONLY gripe so far is that entering passwords via voice isn't possible.

    Nice product, smooth functions, and seamless set-up. Could even control auxiliary speakers connected to monitor! Price is a bit high compared to amazon fire stick 4K; otherwise great product. Couldn’t install 3rd party apps, so I am choosing amazon; but i loved the use of this product.
