Customer Ratings & Reviews

Perfect for my room! I have a small Samsung smart tv, however, the apps are not great and it is kind of slow so maybe not so smart. This is a great addition and helps the TV work better including for older TV's, which we also still have. The remote works quick and makes it easy to type and search with voice commands.

I wish I knew this existed before I bought a regular Chromecast. Because I have Verizon’s garbage gateway system, some channels (namely sports ones) don’t let me register the Verizon into their apps (resulting in a maddening cycle of authentication hell). In getting this particular Chromecast, it already has my stored passwords in my Google account. So as soon as I go to register on an app, it either automatically logs me in, or has a simplified service to do so. This thing is perfect, really.

Will never buy a Firestick again. Faster and less clunk interface with better remote. Also can be used with additional storage

Easy to set up, works like a champ. A big improvement over the old Chromecast

I love this piece! IMO is the best streamer device out. Easy to use, really fast, and not to expensive!

I love my Chromecast Google TV. It runs everything I need it to and looks good doing it! It runs most Android programs as well, unlike other streaming sticks. My favorite 3rd party program is button mapper. I don't use Netflix, so I remapped Netflix to open up my streaming service of choice. The voice command is another great feature. No more typing out tv show names on a timely on-screen qwerty keyboard! Great product! Google does it again!

It makes my smart tv so much more pleasing to look at. The overall layout is so clean and crisp it makes finding stuff to watch so easy and it even has a continue watching option from different apps outside of the apps so you don’t have to go back and forth between whatever applications you use. And the ambient mode is so amazing because of the fact that it lets you use your google pictures which just makes your tv feel more personalized. Amazing device and hasn’t given me any type of problems.

Super easy to use, just plug it in and go! It turns any TV into a GoogleTV device you can use to watch all the things! To be fair to get the most out of this you'll also need the Google Home app and a Google account too but most people probably already those.

Awesome that they added the remote to the Chromecast family. So easy to use and love the voice command!

Easy to use. I would only change not syncing to the surround sound. The up/down from some reason goes to the max - or when turning on we use the surround sound remote to reduce the volume. I'm not sure if it is the remote or the surround sound that defaults to 100 volume. Other than that plenty of apps, some basic free channels, and when an upgrade comes we can easily switch out vs a build in wifi for a projector.

CCwGTV is one of the best choices for devices you have for a streaming "stick", especially for its form factor. It uses USB-C so you can easily add an ethernet adapter for a hardwired network connection, but its wifi reception is pretty good as well. The interface is a bit riddled with ads, but it's also helpful at the same time since it will search all of your subscribed services from the home screen, as long as the app is supported.

Worked right out of the box, our Sharp TV dosn't like the remote but that is not that big of a deal, still works with the chrome cast. Its nice to no longer need a phone to cast from.

This is the change Chromecast needed to stay in the Steaming Device Game. A good solid remote for screen navigation (no more using phone). Bluetooth capable for those who would like to connect a gaming controller. And the ability to play PC games using the Steam and GeForce Now app. Nice! The crown of the resistance “would have been” the ability to install Stadia from google app store. But with a little web search and effort, this is not impossible. Overall, 9 out of 10 in my humble opinion. I

The product is easy to use and performs as expected, including the voice activated commands.

Works really well! It's very easy to control and cast stuff from my phone.

It did exactly what was needed...easy searches, no need for cable with all the choices...definitely would recommend...

It's excellent, responsive. Massive improvement moving on from classic Chromecast to Android tv.

Compared to the traditional chromecast device, the latest Chromecast with Google TV was super easy to set up, and since I have Cox cable, I set up HBO Max, Showtime anywhere, and the Starz apps right away. Also, since I'm an Amazon Prime member, I was able to set up the Prime app. So, I have all of my TV options in one device, to include YouTube. I've been binge watching the traditional Star Trek series WITHOUT the commercials! This is the one no brainer product to get for the 2020 holiday season!

Bought this as a cheaper alternative to the Apple TV box. It obviously doesn't have access to the Apple App Store and the system UI isn't as clean as the Apple TV, but I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth the menu runs. And in comparison to the regular Chromecast w/o Google TV, having this menu, voice control, and access to the Google Play Store are nice touches.

I am a huge Google user so when I saw they were releasing an updated Chromecast WITH a remote I was excited! Had to wait a bit to get it, but it was worth it. It seems to run android as the settings menu looks just like a phone's. Overall it is pretty fast at loading apps and even has some that Roku doesn't have. The opposite is also true though so make sure you do your research and choose the one that is best for you. For the price though, I don't think this new Chromecast can be beat.
