Customer Ratings & Reviews

This thing is great. Made a smart tv out of an older (8 yrs?) unsmart (dumb?) tv. Can now stream Apple, Prime, Netflix, etc. Great gadget. For the price, truly a no brainer.

A really cool device. You don't need a smart tv. With the Chromecast you can watch Netflix, HBO, Hulu, YouTube, and etc!!

The high praise is founded for this. Great clarity whether streaming in 4K UHD, HDR, HDR10. Haven't had any buffering so far. In fact I haven't turned on my Nvidia Shield since I purchased this for video streaming content.

Amazing improvement over the previous version. The new Chromecast has Google Webtv for it's menus. This absolutely blows Roku away in every way now, including price. Integrates seamlessly with google home.

Great Streaming Option for any tv. I got this before Roku and Google agreed on a deal to keep YouTube on Roku but kept it because it was a great way to add another streaming service to my tv.

Can't recommend this enough. It's great, interface is great, voice recognition is great. If you are on the Google ecosystem i.e YouTube, YouTube tv. This is a must if your TV isn't already android equipped.

As an owner of previous Chromecast and audio devices this new version is by far superior. With the addition of a remote that controls the imput as well as volume you cant go wrong

Awesome remote that works with television. The remote works with our Samsung television and has the ability to turn the TV on and off as well as control the volume. Worth it!

Simply amazing. Not only can you access all your favorite streaming apps with it but also cast tomot from any of.your mobile devices. Easy to install and navigate. A must have for your 4K TV!

I love the software and remote, works great. Only things holding it back are that it is missing a few applications I use that are in other streaming devices. Also think for the price it should have come with the ethernet adapter plug. Still the best device if you are in the Google ecosystem and use youtube tv.

I love this item. It allowed me to reduce the amount of devices I had plugged into the wall and my TV. Outstanding product that is easy to use

Chromecast is so easy to use. Setup was super fast and I was off watching all of my subscriptions. Response time on the unit is very smooth. I plan to get another one for my parents.

This is a great steaming device though I cannot give it 5 stars so I gave it 4. There's one problem, it cannot do Dolby vision at 4k. You have to drop the resolution down to 1080p in order to get Dolby vision. It can however do HDR 10 in 4k but another downside is that you have to pick between Dolby vision or HDR 10. If it could do both HDR formats in 4k and just play whatever HDR format the content was mastered in then I'd give it 5 stars. I have not tried the Nvidia shield or shield pro but I heard shield pro can do Dolby vision in 4k so I would assume then that it just plays in HDR 10 or Dolby vision whatever the content is in and you most likely don't have to choose. If that is the case then I'd spend the extra money go with the shield pro. However, if you have an older tv that doesn't support Dolby Vision or even a non smart tv that doesn't have HDR at all then I highly recommend the Chromecast with Google tv to make your dumb tv smart.

Great streaming device!!!!! The user Interface is clean and responds way quicker then the firestick. No lag works Everytime without a problem! I switched all the devices in my house to this.

Google TV is the best TV OS I have yet found. Easy to use and it just works. If you can't find the TV you want that already has it, then buy this and use it instead of what your TV comes with. That is what I had to do.

I have to say it's one of the best streaming devices that I have ever used. And I have used multiple streaming devices when I bought this one I had a fire stick now I would never go back to Amazon

It has a fast and easy-to-use operating system if you have a Google account, registration is fast and you can interact with your mobile by downloading the Google app, the only negative it has is the little 8gb storage the equipment was created for streaming and storage in the cloud .

Access to all streaming subscriptions including HBOMax and can search across all of them in a single search field. Also keeps track of you are watching regardless of where so you can quickly get back to it on another day.

Great new chromecast. This was the device that allowed us to finally cut the cord. We have youtubeTV and the integration with the live guide and all of our other content in one place made the change fairly easy. There are some hiccups however. The main one being the remote. It is easy to use however on more than one occasion it locks up for lack of a better word requiring a hard reset of the chromecast itself. This is annoying to say the least because you then have to go through all of your services again and log in, download the apps you want and pair the remote. The other remote issue is that it is, in my opinion, extremely touchy. If you have this set on an arm rest of your couch and you just brush it with your hand or anything, it turns off, changes channel, goes to the home screen, you get the idea. I also dislike the placement of the volume rocker on the side. Not very ergonomic. All in all I would recommend this product, my hope is that somehow a 3rd party company can release a better remote. Hmm I wonder if a Logitech Harmony would work.....

Have been using this for 3 weeks now,really easy to set up and use.So far I really like using this and there are a lot of third party apps you can download after a little playing around on it.Really nice and convenient.
