Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got one early on Home Depot and think that the software is snappy and is way better than the included Tizen software Samsung has included.

Not only is this piece of junk the most expensive of the Streaming Sticks, it's also the worst. The smallest amount of storage, a handful of apps and it's constantly warning you it's out of storage. Repeatedly asking to update Android System Webview, almost every time you use the thing, and it fails updating. Have to repeatedly clear the cache. The remote is terrible, the rocker disk is too sensitive, the volume rocker is poorly placed so you accidentally hit it. Do yourself a favor, get a Roku or Firestick over this thing. Not only is it garbage, but it's twice the price. Why? Because Google is trying to be Apple.

My son loves his and he gifted me one recently. Was slow to do it, but was finally able to cut the cable tv cord.

This device is good! I like the interface and remote. I bought it because I subscribed to spectrum tv app. It can cast from my phone but cannot be installed on this device to use the remote with.

I have Roku's (Ultra, 4K) Firestick's 4K, Tivo DVRS and now this device. I was attracted to it by the concept of integration of search function over several streaming services. Before I go on it's important to understand that I run the majority of my devices through a Marantz AVR which is fairly new. This makes comparisons relatively equal to assess. I also subscribe to YouTube TV currently. In terms of quality the unit functions well with occasional hiccups of sound dropping out during channel switches (which could be attributed to how it interfaces with the Marantz) and somewhat slower connection to YouTube TV which is ironic but I sense that is because it is juggling to keep it Continue Watching section updated. The unit itself is awkward for use with an AVR as the HDMI connection is too short for such a large device and requires one to purchase an HDMI extension cable. The Remote is small, slippery and is missing the Options button that Firesticks have giving one several handy functions. The GUI layout is better than a Firestick or Roku, simple but covers more than the basics however how it functions lacks polish. The Voice search does live up to my expectations but the Continue Watching section is a mess. If you are someone who starts different programs and then moves on to something else, this will be a very frustrating experience. There is no way to Delete a program from this area. You must finish watching the program to have it removed from the section. There are a limited amount of entries allowed so you could have a bunch of unfinished programs clogging up the section. What's worse, is that because YouTube TV refuses to gives it's customers an OPT OUT for Autoplay, you could have various programs that start up that you don't want to watch logged into the lineup. Double that issue when it's a VOD with commercials that you can't even Fast Forward through to get rid of the show. Adding another failure to the Continue watching section is that Prime Video shows don't appear and other streaming services are a hit and miss to show up as well. I have found the Video quality to be on the soft side compared to Roku or Firestick and I can not get Dolby Surround on either Vudu or Peacock which work perfectly on Roku. Navigation in programs is the best of the streaming devices I have and having Time and Temperature on Screen Saver is nice. If you have YouTube TV the Library has a New From your DVR area which can save a little time. The Watchlist section might also be nice to keep track of things you run across but I don't find it particularly useful. Also the remote button that lets you program it to YouTube TV is a feature some will like. For many streaming users this device will fit their needs and is a good value but for someone like me it falls short. However, Goggle could address the issues I have mentioned and my review would change (Starting with an OPT out of Autoplay on YTTV). Actually I want every service to offer opt out of AutoPlay.

I really like this device. Great inferface, plenty of available apps. But if you have a lot of streaming services, expect to run out of memory. You can Frankenstein something together to expand it, but just did this review so people are aware.

This great product with chromcast and android tv, You can add multiple streaming services in this device

Very well made. Too small and slippery for my old fingers. Works great, i do have some problem with fast forward. Not as easy as TIVO. Voice search is great. I would buy again. I have two of them.

I was ready to buy new tv for living room because the tv was old we this adapter mi old tv look like smart tv now

Never knew how much more there was to television until my son suggested this to me. I've enjoyed every minute of it and considering cancelling cable! Would recommend to anyone.

Really good streaming device and can even play old games from n64 and snes awesome device Cons the buttons remotes after 4 months with the device are already yellowing Other than that Thanks Google

It's simply the best, 800 channels free for going with Google more than anyone else.

This is my third one..I put one on all my TV's....I love it!

Good product to take on trips. You have all your streaming services in one place. All you need is internet connection

Great product would buy again!! A++. Handles all of my applications with ease..

It has a fast processor. It's 10 times better than the other Android TV devices. But..There are so many things that the Amazon FireStick (latest editions) does that This Chromecast TV can't. Google has a lot of work to do. The FireStick is cheaper in price and overall better.

I pulled it back out because now the PS5 app runs on it!!

The interface and recommendation are vastly better than FireTV. The remote control, however, is cheap, hot garbage and I can't find a universal remote that claims to support the chromecast.

gives you access to a many different services and has good streaming features

So far had met all expectations, the image is amazing
