The Google Chrome cast with TV delivers in every way. The setup is a breeze, the user interface is straightforward. If you have a Google ecosystem in your home and use android phones the chromecast pulls it all together.
Download your favorite android apps to your TV, listen your music playlist from your preferred music service.

I've used the fire stick, Roku & the original chromecast device, but this one is the best overall in every way.
The UI is excellent, remote easy to use (even though it's a little slippery) and I can use the remote to control other google home connected devices.
I have it connected to my smart tv and it's like having a whole new TV.

Giving Roku a run for their money

I've been a big fan of Chromecast since launch, my home is full of different generations of Chromecasts and Chromecast Audios. I love to fling content from my phone to my TV or speakers, and screen-mirroring from my phone or laptop is top-notch. But without a remote and and 10-foot interface, that's all they were good for, until now.
With the Chromecast with Google TV, it can be promoted from secondary to primary streaming device. The new Android TV OS is slick and pretty, making Roku feel dated. The device is so new that there are still some glitches to be ironed out, but the app selection is great.
I'm not throwing out my Roku Streaming Stick+ yet, though. A lot of apps work a bit better, or different, between the Roku and Android platforms. Some apps let me watch live TV on the Roku version of the app, but not the Android TV (I think CBS was the example?)
The remote is cute, but it's small and light, doesn't really feel substantial. Roku wins in this department, hands down. And while it's not expensive, the Roku Streaming Stick+ can regularly be found for $10-$20 when it's on sale, something I've never seen for this device.

We were using Roku for a few years and I was getting aggravated at how slow they were. I bought 2 of these Google TVs and we love them. I really like the interface and the speed is great. As far as I am concerned it is much better than any of the other streaming devices I have tried. Plus its cheaper. I would definitely recommend.

Excelent product. Comparable to Xiami Mi Box in capabilities but smaller, cheaper and with a better remote control. It's great that the remote control has IR capabilities to turn on the tv and change it's input. The only con is that it need to be plugged to the wall as it can't work with the watts provided by the tv USB ports.

Great streaming device overall!!! Performs much smoother than most in its class and supports 4K and modern audio standards. What's more is that it has THE ASSISTANT!!! Finally, a step closer towards a smart home.
However..... There is no built-in volume leveling option. Roku and Fire TV have it and I'm surprised that the engineers and developers at Google overlooked this crucial feature. I have a soundbar system connected to the TV via ARC. Makes it really annoying to watch stuff with inconsistent volume levels, especially at night. This could be easily fixed with a software update. But I hope google does it quick.
I'm currently using a Roku stick+. But I'm not going to return the chromecast. The assistant is the feature which made it worth keeping.

I have two older Chromecast models. They are very dependable streaming "work horses". I've had this new Chromecast with Google TV for a few weeks. I really like the remote control and Google TV UI. The device is very quick to respond to the remote. Overall, a very good improvement to the Chromecast family. I highly recommend it.

New Google TV is nice and easy to use. Enhances all the features from the Android TV interface. Powerful for such a small device. It won't beat an Nvidia Shield, but it plays and streams media as well as any box for 1/3 the cost. Nice support for Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. Easy to use and has the wife acceptance factor.

We bought a 65” Samsung smart TV last year and while the picture is nice, the apps and interface are terrible at best. This new 4K Chromcast finally allows us to enjoy our tv. Easy to use and navigate, works with google assistants, and so far, no crashes like the built in tv interface and apps.

Easy access to many online services. It's nice that it provides information on movies being available on different streaming services prior to purchasing a movie. Only complaint is looking at my google library is a pain because they show up in a line alphabetically that is a little cumbersome with 150+ movies. There should be an option for a grid view like on the phone app.

I've used almost all the Chromecasts. This is by far the best one yet. Easy to use and set-up. It's all I use to watch TV with. You won't need anything else. The remote works great and you can still use your phone, tablet or computer. I plan on buying another one to replace my old version in the bedroom.

I own 4 of these. Turns any dumb TV to a smart TV and makes any smart tv smarter. I love the google interface. I love the included remote also. I bought this for an old samsung F8500 plasma that had an old outdated smart tv interface.

I was already a fan of Chromecast from the first generation. The new remote has led me to use it much more. Makes a great supplement to a Roku for times when media companies are fighting each other over content availability. Also works well in a group with my Chromecast Audio units to play music throughout the apartment.

It works great! You can't watch your apps right off of the Chromecast or you can from your phone like you would with a older Chromecast I will get a lot. It works perfectly for everything. And the Google TV app that it comes with is also pretty cool. It actually has a couple Of live TV channels

Great fire-stick equivalent! Superior in every way to the firestick. Faster start up, can access frequented shows from the main menu without opening apps, and the google assistant works flawlessly in conjuction with the nest mini or google assistant speakers. Only knocking off one star because some apps such as HBO Max does not let you continue shows directly from the main menu, not an issue with Netlix or Disney however.

This is now my go to streaming device. I am really happy that I bought this. Chromecast having a remote is really nice. I like how easy it was to integrate the streaming services I use. Its just very easy to use and set up specifically if you are an android user or already have other google devices.

Love it.
I have several Apple TVs, had older Rokus and older Chromecasts and usually prefer my Apple TV but this new Chromecast is a nice upgrade.
Interface is slick and the remote is so much better than the previous Apple TV and still may be better than the newest Apple TV I just purchased.
