    I like this device better than the built in smart features that came with the TV. It's absolutely faster no question about it. Since it's Google you have access to all the apps available (some devices block streaming services from competitors). Easy to add apps and then access them. It boots up fast, it launches apps fast, and it starts playing content fast. Love it.

    The remote is perfect and simple. The voice control works surprisingly well. Google TV is much better than expected, recommending perfect shows and movies based on what I've watched already. Well worth the price.

    This device is amazing, I already had the Chromecast device and was using it on my TV, it has some glitches and other issues so when I saw this come along I decided I would try it out. This is like Apple but so much more and a very friendly user. Once you are set up you have every channel at your fingertips and the rest of it is just a voice search away. Great product

    I was having nothing but trouble with my Tivo Stream 4K, so I thought I'd give Chromecast with Google TV a try. I have not been disappointed. I'm happy with the Android TV UI and the overall performance of the device is great.

    If you have a non-smart TV or an older one that does not use the newer apps, then this device will breathe new life into your TV. My TV works just fine, but it could not use a lot of the new streaming apps. This gives me access to everything I need, and the home page allows me to easily access the content of any app with ease.

    My tv doesnt have the applications like the Google Chromecast does. It is really affordable and I love the features on it. Makes watching tv more enjoyable with Netflix, Hulu, YouTube and other apps all ready in hand.

    We had a version of a Samsung TV that did not have apps for YouTubeTV, Amazon Prime, or HBO Max. Installing this chromecast allowed us to regain the full functionality of our Samsung 4K TV. It is easy to install and set up, and we especially like that the Google TV software provides us with one place to go to find programs and movies on all of our subscription platforms.

    The chromecast itself works about the same as earlier models. The user interface was workable. A nice touch was the ability to program the YouTube button to go to wither YouTube or YouTube TV. The interface was workable, without being outstanding. The remote was another matter. It's clunky and a bit hard to navigate with. It's small, especially for big hands, and it can use more buttons and features. They do have a remove control that's based in a mobile phone, but it doesn't work much better. One annoying trait of this device is that it goes offline if not used for a given length of time. The old Chromecasts would show a selection of background images, and that is what this version sould have done by default. Instead, it just goes black, so switching HDMI inputs to the one Chromecast is on will result in a blank screen and the television informing the user that there is no HDMI signal. Pushing a button on the remote brings up the interface after a few seconds. The YouTube interface seems inferior to the one on Roku. Also, Tubi does not have the My List function on the sidebar as it does on other streaming devices. Ther were a few other apps with similar problems. I returned it and went back to using Roku, which can still access YouTube TV through the regulare YouTube app. Perhaps the next version or an update will bring better functionality.

    I own a roku TV, an android TV, and the old chromecast and the operating system on this is by far my favorite - I love that I don't need to go into each app to browse/resume shows because recommendations and recently watched media shows up on the home page! I also really love that the remote can turn my TV on/off - it's an old-ish TV and my previous chromecast couldn't do that!

    If you need a streaming stick/box get this for 40$ it is amazing and beats out the Apple TV and fire TV. The only reasons not to get it is if you need airplay or if you need to stream games then you should look at the Nvidia shield

    Remote Control Sets This Chromecast Apart

    Good value for the money. Easy and fast set-up. The voice assistant works amazingly well and it is nice that it isn't always listening for a wake word. It only listens when the user presses a button. The remote control fits nicely in the hand. No more fumbling for a tablet or a smartphone to pause, rewind, or fast-forward like one had to do with earlier Chromecasts.

    I was reluctant to purchase this as I already had a functioning smart TV. However, the Chromecast streaming service is far superior to what you'll get with any TV. The remote is awesome--small, easy to use, no unneeded button, and has an excellent voice command feature. And the remote controls my home theatre audio receiver.

    Cut the cord 5 years ago, started with Roku's, but the devices started to die after a few years. Moved to the new Chromecast, and it's been awesome. I love how you don't need to go into every app to see what's new or what you've been watching. GoogleTV does that all for you.

    I loved this device. It gets both direct streaming and the chromecast functionality on the same device. I was able to get rid of and old chromecast and relocate my Roku to another TV. The only issue I found was that it doesn't go straight to it when I turn it on, even with the right settings on both the device and my TV. When I press the home button, then it makes the TV to change to it's HDMI input. Navigation, picture and sound are great and apps content is more than enough.
