Customer Ratings & Reviews

Fast and free delivery in 2 days even when Google's warehouse was claiming at least 15 day delivery time. This product is truly a revolutionary leap in the Chromecast line. The voice-controlled remote is an absolute gamechanger. The only complaint is the quality of the remote, still has some sharp edges left due to subpar craftsmanship, a very minor inconvenience though, especially for the price point.

I have really enjoyed this product as my main streaming device even though I have several Fire Sticks. I enjoy the user friendly interface. My only gripe is that I was not able to download the xfinity streaming app from the native google play store but other than that I have been able to watch everything anyway.

Chromecast with Google TV installation was very smooth and it provides all the required functionality. The remote could be a little bigger in size to hold it steadily in the palm without touching some buttons accidentally. Wish they provide an integrated LAN wired port on the device as opposed to having to buy an additional device.

Easy to use for all ages. Comes with a handy remote controller

Great product. Easy to install/ connect. Only issue, Hulu ads lock up access, you need to exit hulu and restart. 4k access is great.

Overall the unit does as advertised, its a decently priced 4k media player and casting device. Passed that its very basic. The unit has an awkwardly small amount of apps which is surprising considering that it supports so many casting services. This is the main reason behind my lower rating. Secondly, it feels suprisingly low quality and poorly designed. The unit itself is fine but lacks ethernet support. The remote is the main disappointment. The plastic has a matte finish but scratches easy and is incredibly slippery and odd to hold, the button orientation feels awkward and uncomfortable. I wish that it had a headphone jack like the rokus to give easy private listening. Setup isnt horribly difficult for most people but I can see people who are less technologically inclined to get lost or confused easily. One thing i found very cool (at the same time lacking) is that even if you have an older TV or external audio system you are able to program the remote to control said hardware. But what im lost at is the lack of power control for the audio hardware, it only allows you to control volume. Overall the unit is nice but lacking in my opinion, i will be returning it until there is further refinement and development.

I had to unplug everything and replug after the Chromecast didn't work on initial try. Wish technology could just be plug and play but somehow we're not there yet. Once it did work it's been fairly smooth but I've had to uninstall and reinstall some of the app apps when they randomly decide to stop working. In addition the length of the cord from the HDMI plug to the device is really short and I'm going to have to get a tiny extender so the device isn't hidden behind the TV to allow for a more seamless signal between the remote and the device. I'm surprised it's not longer to allow the device to sit uncovered. However, this device makes it convenient to control the TV, sound bar and Chromecast all with one remote so that's been really nice. It runs faster than the interface of my smart tv which is the main reason we got it. I think the device can use a few improvements but overall I'm enjoying it.

Really easy to use and install all the streaming services. I love the interface.

I wish it would default to a TV Service. We pay for YouTube TV, but this device always opens to the menu instead of Live TV. I want to be a cord cutter, but my DirecTV box is for TV, this device is also for TV. Default to LiveTV and let me go to a a menu to watch netflix, or whatever other streaming service I want. But please, I want a "Default To:" option to choose my live TV service.

Great Value...a huge leap since 1st generation Chromecast. The remote truly makes it smart since you are able to ask Google to do things not just with the tv but also with your smart home devices. I think the software needs some work though, the interface is sometimes too user friendly. But you get apple tv+ ...the only thing missing is apple airplay as far as software.

Very easy to set up and to use. Excellent picture quality.

Fabulous and easy to use. We are using it to cast the Occulus 2 onto the TV so we can watch our son play in virtual reality. The cast is so easy and high quality. The only issue - moving the chromecast from TV to another TV is not working .... seems like it only wants to work on the TV we originally connected it to. The kids can also cast their cell phone content to the TV. Works GREAT.

Works well. Better than slow apps on an old TV. We got this because Youtube TV 4K requires you to set your home wifi. Since this is a new setting and requirement it's only available on smart TVs, i.e. Android Smart TVs. We only have Roku and Apple TV's so we picked this up so that we could make that setting change. Worked easy. But now that we have it we rather enjoy it. Helps make an old smart more up to date. Remote is decent, some of the buttons I wish were different, but just because I'm used to the Roku remotes. They don't have a play/pause button so you have to hit the center enter button. That took a little getting use to.

This is the best media streamer for the price hands down! I have an Apple TV a Roku 4k stick and I recently threw away my Fire TV stick 4k because I couldn’t deal with the constant connection problems... I decided to give Google TV a try and I am honestly impressed. If you aren’t in the Apple ecosystem, or don’t want to spend $150 for a streaming device, Google TV is your answer

This is 10x faster than Roku. Love the interface and voice control.

Great upgrade, easy to connect. Happy to have a remote for chrome cast.

The interface is very intuitive and responsive. I love how it aggregates all the content from the various streaming services. I have it in my bedroom and its amazing. My only critique is that the "For You" page doesn't update as often as you would expect (once a day I noticed) so even if you go through and dislike a lot of reccommended content it takes a while to see new ones based off of that info.

I was skeptical about how nice it would be having this device, but I can honestly say I'm pleasantly surprised at not only how easy it was to set up, but how good the connection to WiFi was. Been using several of these for a month or two now and they are very nice to have. A great change of pace from dealing with Amazon Fire devices!!

Easy operation. Well designed remote. Great value. All popular apps plus many more.

Chromecast with Google TV is a game changer for anyone cutting cable. With access to free live TV channels, and any of your normal streaming apps such as YouTube, etc. Easy setup, and breathes life into any old TV.
