I bought this to replace a Firestick 4K and the Chromecast is much better. It is much more stable and easy to use. Some reviewers complain that the remote is slippery (it is) so I also purchased a silicone cover for it, which works great.

Purchased this device to get a few apps I cannot get on my Samsung Smart TV. It has worked flawlessly and is much faster than my Sony TV that is a Google TV. It does take awhile to set up, so don't wait until the last minute.

This is head and shoulders above the interface of Roku. I love the simplicity of how it merges all the shows that I'm watching across platforms and includes the suggestions. The overall Google suggestions and watchlist (at the risk of privacy, I guess) is fantastic. It also gives you options of the platforms which you want to watch. I have the latest roku and this, and as an otherwise Apple user, I prefer this 10/10.
Docking 1 point because the remote's direction buttons are janky. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't.

Hi SleepyPenguin, thanks for giving us a review about the Chromecast with Google TV, and we’re glad that you love the Google TV experience. But we’re sorry to learn that the remote buttons sometimes don't work.
You can do the following troubleshooting steps that might improve the performance of the Voice Remote: - Move or test the remote closer to the TV. The distance between the remote and the Chromecast should not exceed 10 meters - Move the dongle away from other HDMI cables. - Move the position of the dongle, and flip it over.
Also, Google is committed to keeping your data private and safe. The Google Privacy Policy applies to all Google services, including the Google Home app and Google Nest, Google Home, and Chromecast devices. The Google Nest Privacy Help Center article provides more details about how Google Nest connected home devices and services work, and how we collect and use data when you use these devices and services.

I love my Google TV! This has turned out to be the best streaming device I've used. Easy to access any and all streaming services you need. I really like how easy it is to navigate through the interface, as well as locate any TV show or movie you're looking for, no matter where it is. Google TV will tell you what services offer what you're looking for and bring you straight there so you can start watching! For what you get it's an amazing value.

Gregory, pleased with my purchase. The device is very intuitive and easy to use and set up for the breeze. I like the fact that it has the feature where I could do karaoke on my TV. It's great for parties.

Amazing little device. Works great! Much more responsive than my Vizio's smart tv features. I also love having the remote instead of having to pull out my phone.
I've bought into the google ecosystem, so having an assistant button on the remote and being able to talk into it is pretty cool too.
The ability to add storage and stuff through usb-c is pretty cool too! Check out youtube videos on that.
Very cool device.

Very smooth UI and all the app choices you would want. Now my issue with it (and the reason I returned it) is because it will not work with the 1A / 5V power provided by the TV's USB port. It needs more than that so you are forced to use the included power adapter. The way my TV is set up It has not visible cables so I just wanted to connect this device to it and forget about it. Unfortunately this was not for me but if you have a setup where you have a power outlet behind your TV or not care about the dangling cable then this one is definitely for you

Works great use it as a media hub in the master bedroom. Works well with android phones to cast screen *not sure about iPhones. Remote is finicky sometimes have to raise is higher when laying down in bed.. *or maybe I'm lazy... Works tons better than a firestick imo. Faster, clearer & just better. Get one!

Was a big fan of roku. Spent alot of money buying the ultras. But after so many of them going out I decided to switch to Google and never looked back. And much cheaper.

I have been using the original Chromecast and decided to bite the bullet with this version. I have to say my experience so far has been an upgrade to the original. The device is quick to set up, recommendations as all things Google work great for the shows and movies. Integration with my smart home set up was a cakewalk. The remote controller is a wee bit tiny for my hands but otherwise 10/10 from me.

Easy Setup, the Google Chromecast was a breeze to set up. The channels that you can access are a more broad quantity than regular cable. I cut the cord with spectrum and don't regret it not one bit we only use their company for internet after years of wasting money on their TV lineup package and a phone that we did not utilize.

Since Google and Roku are fighting it out, we've had to move away from Roku. We purchased a couple of the new Chromecast with GoogleTV units. Boy, are they great! Anyone that uses YoutubeTV must have these! The guide is right on the home screen. So is a lot of your library from your YouTubeTV DVR. Google was very smart to add the remote and to un-tether the Chromecast from your phone while keeping the casting capabilities.

Absolutely wonderful! I love the remote as sometimes it’s a pain to use my phone. Guests can even use it with ease. Thank you!! Only issue I’m certainly having is streaming Hulu. Not certain to the cause, but plays fine casting through my phone.

Google did not let me down. I bought this because my smart tv is a vizo and it's Xmb (cross media bar) really sucks, It was slow and it didn't have disney plus....This is where the Chrome Cast shines. It replaced all media watching on the tv...turning my Vizio into a 4k monitor and that is amazing. It also received updates a lot and that was good because tiny issues were resolved quickly.
