Customer Ratings & Reviews

nice 4K support and very easy to setup and use.

I wasn't able to use this in the living room for multiple user use. The main reason I bought the Chromecast was for the remote and to replace the $35 I had. Upon setting it up and using it for a few days I can't find where or how to add multiple users for the Chromecast. My brother and I have our own YouTube accounts and different recommendations but on this device you can't switch accounts to his Google account. If you need this for single use it's perfect as my brother has one upstairs and uses it every day no issues. Not good in a multi-google account environment Dislikes: No option at the time to add a 2nd Google account for YouTube and etc... Likes: Fast, 4k, HDR, remote controls the TV volume through infrared or in my case the sound bar, physical remote while still supporting to cast to it. You can even connect it through Ethernet using a USB ethernet adapter (with USB C power port passthrough)!

Works very good and I prefer over my firestick....

Nice google TV, very snapping, loads extremely fast.

We the costumers are like the kids stuck between fighting parents that will not play nice. Google and Amazon continue to make our life hard. As far at the 2020 Chromecast with Google TV if it would work with Amazon Prime Video with voice it would be so much better but without that it is about the same as most 4k dongles out there each with at least a few problems of there own. Here are the streamers I own and have to compare: I would rate them in order from Best starting with 1. 1. TiVo Stream 4k ($50) 2. Chromecast with Google TV 4k ($50) - This one reviewed 3. Google Chromecast Ultra 4k ($70) Discontinued 10/1/2020 4. Roku Streaming stick+ 4k ($50) 5. Amazon Firestick 4k - ($40) About Chromecast with Google TV 4k: The remote is nice size and works OK. The input for TV button does not work for TV but works for Apps input within Chromecast input. (at least on my Samsung Q8TD 65" TV). The basic layout of the Apps is same as everyone else. OK but you have to find your way around and they are always pushing HBO Max and YouTube even though I don't use either. One nice thing is the apps are listed at the bottom on the opening page but is not locked like it should be. The pages all seem to be offset on top and bottom by design. Maybe it was just updates but I would get a black screen for a couple minutes at a time wile looking through the menu (Strange to get black screen without anything showing but it does come back on it's own after 3 or 4 minutes). On the power cord it is only 5 feet long, so too short if you don't have a 120v outlet very close. Mine would reach but only if I don't hide the cord behind the TV like all the other cord get tucked in to the base (Why not 6' or 2 meter cord?) If your new to dongles for TV the reason you have a power cord rather than just plug into the USB on the back of the TV is because they are not all powered all the time and sometimes with not enough power. If you tell Google to play something on Hulu it will not only start playing your show but will turn on the TV too and switch to that input on the TV. This only works if the unit has power to make all that happen. This is why you have a cord to a outlet on the wall. When asking Google Hub or Google Assistant to play a show on TV it works OK if you use YouTube, HBO Max or Hulu but does not work with Amazon Prime : ( If you do use the remote to get something playing on Amazon Prime don't expect Google Assistant to Rewind or much of anything else wile using Prime Video. The dongle does not come in black so it does not blend with the black back of every tv made. A good thing is the dongle is smaller than the discontinued Chromecast Ultra (That did come in black). The dongle runs a little warm but cooler than some of the others I have so not bad. Over all it is not a bad 4k streamer but I think I like the TiVo Stream 4K better overall if you have to use the remote to get your shows on Prime Video going anyway. If Google ever gets there _hit together to get Prime Video to work with voice control like it did for a couple weeks last year this would be a hit. If you only plan to use YouTube, Netflix and Hulu this is a great streamer. But for a few people like me I watch Prime as well so not the top choice.

Loved the 1080p update my tv is only capable of 720p so that was nice and love the different options of screensavers pre-installed my choice or from personal Google photos I actually bought it when I did because it was apple tv+ capable before my Vizio tv was

Solid streaming device. Supers everything and the remote is sleek

Chrome cast with the remote. What’s not to like!!??

Love it has apps that I enjoy using and very fluid

Connects to just about any streaming service and works well. It does restart sometimes and the remote is a little small and slippery.

Gave this product a try and I wasn't disappointed. Casting to it is very easy.

This is a fantastic product, especially for Android users and people who like Google/Android stuff. The new Google TV is so good. And it plays games from the Google Play store, right on your TV! Stone your can just play with the Chromecast remote, some you have to buy a gamepad, but you can get them as low as $20.

Great product, the UI is very smooth and easy to use

i think it is super practical for those who want a simple solution to old tvs, i just LOVE IT

I love this tv alternative it’s great for streaming

Easy set up. Great value. Cord cutting made simple.

Was pleasantly surprised to see HBO Max and Peacock already integrated. My favorite feature is using the voice remote to find a show or YouTube video easily and having it poop right on the screen, The TiVo button on the remote brings you back to the TiVo home page every time. I have also noticed it is learning my family’s viewing preferences and is recommending shows we would like as it did with the movie “Palm Springs”

Works great and is easy to use. Have the other version and it isn't as great

The best value for your dollars!! I cant believe google is giving this excellent product away for just 50 dollars. The remote is a great addition to this next generation chrome cast. I just love the simple but effective design of the remote. It more like roku but for half the price! You cant go wrong with this product.

Google has a few features to add, but overall, it's my favorite of the streaming sticks.
