    Google Chromecast, an amazing unit! This is so EASY. Just click the button, tell it the movie you want! It searches and finds the movie! No more trying to remember if the show is on Netflix, Prime, Disney, etc. This unit was pretty easy to set up. Just enter your user name and password one time, and then it is very easy! Well worth the money!

    Updated to this unit from a earlier 1080 P version that kept overheating and shutting down. This unit seems to be much better and we’ve been able to watch without any problems at all. It seems like another good updated model from Google. I happened to purchase the last one on the shelf at my local Best Buy so my assumption is that they are doing well.

    My TV has Chromecast built in but it was 720p so TV and movies looked quite pixelated, with this device, I can watch stuff in 4K. (Your TV, HDMI cord, and HDMI ports in the TV have to support it). I also like the simple remote.

    Highly recommend buying this. First of all it’s $50 and it has a great App selection. I have an Apple TV 4K and like using the chrome cast with Google TV more. You can even download an app that lets you airplay to this Chromecast for those who have an iPad or iPhone. I’m going to sell my Apple TV 4K and get a few more of these Chromecasts with Google TV.

    The great: In contrast to other viewpoints, I don't mind the so called ads that are part of the new interface. In fact, I appreciate the suggestions that seem to be tailored to my viewing habits. The interface is intuitive and if you have YouTubeTV, it's fantastic! Easy to setup and configure any modern TV. The not so great: For what you pay, one would expect more from the remote. It feels cheap, light and easily breakable. It does work well though

    This product is excellent, easy to use, and well assembled. I have a perfectly fine VIZIO TV (5-year-old) that is not updating to new Apps like Disney+, etc.. This Chromecast save me hundreds since I won't need to replace my old TV, just buy this product for $49 and it works better since I'm able to see all my subscription in one place from one screen.

    I like the device, it has a good layout and pleasant interface with good suggestions for things to watch but I am finding things that do not work with Google TV like AT&T TV Now and unfortunately that is the service I am using. Also in comparing to Fire TV 4K I am seeing it is a little slower but not to the point that i would not recommend it. Remote is nice size but missing rewind and fast forward buttons and volume is on right side that is proving to be inconvenient.

    The Best Streaming device for Youtube TV

    I am coming from a 4k Apple TV that went into the closet. The Google TV has the best user interface and snappiness out of all streaming devices. The remote could be a tad bigger, but better than the apple tv remote that is too sensitive. This is the best streaming device for youtube and youtube tv and I have used them all, including the Nvidia Shield TV.

    Feel like these use to be better. No 4k options. Interface a bit laggy. But since roku doesn't use cast anymore it's necessary. Both that i got i had to set up multiple times to get sound for whatever reason. Interface and settings need upgraded

    I love this! I both have this as well as Apple TV and they are both great. So easy to install and use. It is so simple to turn on and use that even my toddler boy tries to have an access to Netflix! The design is so modern and simple that makes it even more special. I have been buying a lot to give as gifts to my friends and families! Amazing product!

    Controller is Amazing

    Hope Google is reading this: The controller is amazing and the fact you put an input selector on it makes it even better. Chromecast is so much more attractive to consumers regardless of which ecosystem you're in when it has a remote that will control your TV critical functions so you never need the TV remote.
