Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have some gripes...but don't let those deter you. This is a great way to stream TV and "cut the cable." Others have written about the good points...let me just pick some nits for a moment. The remote is round and slippery. It has slipped from my hands and crashed to the ground while on the treadmill more than a few times. The user interface (UI) is confusing at times. That's because you stream with different apps from different providers (eg Netflix, Prime, YouTube TV, Paramount, Disney, etc). Each one has a slightly different set of reactions to the buttons. Sometimes I can join a program in progress recorded on their "DVR" other times I can go to the beginning. I can't figure this out. The back arrow seems to have a mind of its own. Maybe that's due to the way different apps respond to it. Integration with the Google Home app should be improved. I believe it is impossible to add a device to a "room." If you want a device in a "room" it appears that you have to set it up that way from the beginning.

voice controls for all my steaming apps all in 1 place... yes please. no problems and i love it, ordered more for the rest of my tv's. i love my smart home... voice control is awesome. really helps out my mom so she doesn't need remotes of to get up.

Works well and has pretty much every streaming app you might want. It also allows you to cast from you phone. It has great picture and sound quality. The remote adds quite a bit of functionality that you didn't have from some of the older generation chromecasts.

Google does it again. I'm a big fan of Google products. This is one. Easy to set up and delivers on content performance. Instantly turn your legacy tv's into a smart tv - as long as you have an HDMI connection and google account.

Smooth interface and transmits Bluetooth for my headphones.

I bought this to be able to stream Steam on my TV. Although there's lag for gaming(as expected) I can now stream anything I need to my TV and have more apps available to me than were before with just the TV.

I got it for an older TV that was not a SmartTV. An easy to use interface. I would suggest getting a silicone sleeve for the remote since it small and slippery. Connect to my WiFi easily and kept a consistent connection.

Worth every penny!! I am a long term cord cutter and Android TV user. I have a Shield TV. Getting these for my parents. Was concerned about this running hot or freezing so I opened one to do a trial run before giving them to my parents. Left it plugged up for a few hours. Works GREAT! I will say this though. It will be a good idea to spend a few extra $$ and get the insignia 7 port USB-C hub with ethernet or Belkin version. It works OK on wifi with slight delays. That was using a Fiber wifi connection. That is not a issue with the ethernet plugged into the USB-C hub. YouTube can walk you through the set up with using the hub. It's all pretty much plug and play with some good tweaks on the videos about side loading and extra memory. Had a sandisk memory stick plugged in. Was only like 100 mb/s read rate so get a memory card/stick that has a minimum 200 mb/s read speed. That way any apps you move over to it will load faster.

This is a very useful and reasonably priced addition to any home system as well as a device to take on the road/vacation. Easy to set up and use. Only downside is that this version requires use of the included power module. Previous generation versions could be powered by the TV USB port which eliminated wasted power and extra wires.

Bought two of these for my TVs. They work amazingly and I wish I would have come across these awhile ago as my tvs have been collecting dust for quite some time. Super easy set up and works awesome, especially if you already have Google home. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent upgrade to my tv's built-in app operating system. My tv's OS got very buggy when i switched ISP. It could not connect to my internet. No matter how many factory resets i would do to try and solve the problem it just kept dropping connection. The Chromcast is a great work around if you're experiencing this issue. The Chromcast connect with lightning speed. No lag and in 4k. I liked it so much I bought another for my 1080p livingroom tv. Looks great at 1080p too!

Opens up possibilities we had not had before. I got it to use with YouTube TV and have decided to put that purchase off for a while, but there are other benefits such as having the same menu as I do on my new Android TV. I also like having the remote. Recommended

The new 4K Chromecast is a nice update from our older model. It supports all the streaming apps we use, and the user interface is smooth and responsive. So far it's been everything we were hoping it would be!

Work really well I brought a projector to connect this to make a home movie theater and 4.1 speaker system this chromecast has bluetooth so I connect to my sound system and it works really well 4k looks really good and hdr love watch TV from this chromecast

I love google products. The quality and ease of use is awesome, I have 2 nvidia shield TVs that are pretty good as well but googles new chromecast is great integration with YouTube Tv and you get to see a nice preview screen before you get to the actual live channel

Easy to set up and use. I received the first as a gift and when I needed another streaming device (despite having used Roku for years), I ran out and bought this one. Shipping was super fast and I was able to get everything set up in under an hour.

I've had this now for almost a year, it's great! Easy to use and makes any TV with an HDMI input a smart TV if it's not. I use it everyday and does not disappoint. You can access almost all the movie watching apps out there.

We purchased to use on the spare room tv. Set up took a while with getting all the logins right. Once that was done it works like a champ. We have not tried with Google assistant yet. We'll be getting a couple as gifts for the parents.

I've had the 1st gen Chromecast device and this new one is a much better experience. I like that there's a dedicated remote and seems more of a streaming box experience rather than just a casting device from previous generations. Works very well and easy to use.

Google Chrome cast mates streaming movies, TVs, shows, I am binge watching seamless. All you have to do is ask Google to play a show or movie and it comes right up. No more going through the hassle of looking for the application to play the specific show or movie.
