Customer Ratings & Reviews

I already have a smart tv fully loaded with apps, but im slowly adopting the google ecsystem so wanted give this a try. Overall, its solid, but probably a small downgrade from just using LGs built in apps. My biggest issues, its noticeably slower, and not as smooth. Apps take much longer to get a video pumping out than i expected, amazon prime videos taking the longest for some reason. I can click on a video on prime and it loads for 30-50 seconds before playing. The navigation is locked at 60hz, my TV is 120hz, so just browsing on the chromecast vs LG looks much worse. Negatives aside, i love the recommendations tab, the watch tab, and the continue watching tab, they're very convenient. All the shows you're watching across all apps show up on the main menu, vs having to open each app. I usually watch multiple shows at once, so this makes it so much easier so i dont forget any. Overall, its a solid device. If you have a smart tv already like myself, the tabs i mentioned above is worth buying this for by itself.

It is much faster than the smart tv integration in my current 4K TV. I much prefer Google's interface as well. Great product overall. A bit pricey, but it was worth it. Only gripe is that I have to restart it occasionally due to an audio glitch. Other than that, great product!

Have been using the Chrome cast device for over a year now and love it! Liked it so much I bought another one. Intuitive to manage, easy to use, lots of choices (apps). My only criticism would be it should have more built in memory for the many apps available to download.

This is the best streaming device I've ever owned! I was using fire sticks and after buying one of these it blew my mind. I've had a couple of issues with it glitching but could be Dolby set up, a simple restart fixes it which means it's probably just an update that can come one day.

No problems so far. Happy with the purchase. Would recommend it.

WiFi chip went out on my TV so i couldn't stream anymore. With this low cost investment I was able to start streaming again and I gained access to more options. Also, elected me to connect with Goggle Home.

This Chromecast made hotel stays more enjoyable! Very intuitive, setting up hotel wifi password is so easy while the old Chromecast wont even connectas most hotels have built in restrictions to such devices. There wont be traveling for me without it.

I've owned a 1st Generation Chromecast for a while and it was a bit laggy at times. I purchased the new one because of the remote and not having to go through a mobile device to make it work. OMG what a gamechanger this is. No lag whatsoever and it works just like it was an app built into a smart tv. Highly recommend!

Overall experience is good but google being good you can imagine all kinds of conflicts with network based ad blockers.

PROs: - Google TV OS - Great UI - Finally a remote - Overall great experience CONs: - Sluggish

Finally Chromecast with a remote! This device integrates perfectly with my Samsung soundbar and my Samsung TV and I am able to control everything with my Chromecast remote. It loads up apps very quickly and makes switching between streaming services a breeze. This is the Chromecast I have been wanting for years!

My uncle likes to watch tv outside. He uses the dish tv app to cast to his old google cast device. Was slow and would sometimes crash. So I upgraded him to the new 4k cast and he loves it! Clearer picture and very fast response.

My newest Chromecast works perfectly. We picked it up for a babysitter to use during a wedding. Instead of getting videos, we could just plug in laptops all set up for the 4 year olds.

Excellent streamer! Great UI and very smooth. All the apps I want and need with a great remote. The only downside is for anyone wanting to get Atmos out of it. Waited three updates to get problem fixed but it still doesn’t work. Any Atmos soundtrack and the sound just doesn’t play on any app. I switched it from my main tv to my room tv where Atmos isn’t needed and it replaced my Fire Cube TV.

Excelent product, very easy to use and a lot of utility, with this you can transforms your old tv in a smart tv, and for samsungs tv that not allow app likes crunchyroll whit this product you solve the issue

Fresh and easy to use. The added remote is a bonus.

This product has made the chromecast experience a million time better. It's great to not always have to reach for your phone or use your voice to change what you want to watch. The remote is very intuitive and easy to use. If you love your chromecast and want to take it to the next level, don't hesitate to upgrade.

I'm extremely satisfied with this chromecast. I used to use multiple Chromecasts(2nd Gen) but this one tops them all. The remote it very easy to use, functions with all my other Google devices and I love how it allows you to have personal recommendations on movies/shows.

The Gen2 ChromeCast is awesome for its price. The quality makes it amazing, makes streaming apps way more easier to cast on.

Smooth UI. Easy to use. Upgraded from a Fire Cube.
