    This is by far the best way to watch streaming services on a non smart tv. I had an old tv that was sitting around and i didnt ever think i would be able to use it and make it like a smart tv but by getting the new google chromecast it made it so much easier. It is so easy to set up and would reccomend it to anyone.

    Love it. If you are like me and thought that your smart TV was sufficient, you are wrong. This was the best upgrade and a must have. In addition, the Google TV interface really helps streamline all your services in one place. It even begins to learn your interests and provide recommendations all in one spot. no more flipping through your various streaming services.

    I had to unplug everything and replug after the Chromecast didn't work on initial try. Wish technology could just be plug and play but somehow we're not there yet. Once it did work it's been fairly smooth but I've had to uninstall and reinstall some of the app apps when they randomly decide to stop working. In addition the length of the cord from the HDMI plug to the device is really short and I'm going to have to get a tiny extender so the device isn't hidden behind the TV to allow for a more seamless signal between the remote and the device. I'm surprised it's not longer to allow the device to sit uncovered. However, this device makes it convenient to control the TV, sound bar and Chromecast all with one remote so that's been really nice. It runs faster than the interface of my smart tv which is the main reason we got it. I think the device can use a few improvements but overall I'm enjoying it.

    It is a paradigm leap for Google as I have been using Chromcast for years and I always feel it is good but can’t compete other streaming devices for lacking many functions. This time Google has made a turning points and changed my perspective, this version is awesome snd user interface is friendly and easy to navigate. Smooth and fast browsing. I like it so far!

    I have to admit I wasn’t too keen on getting another chromecast. But after purchasing this one I love it so much actually more than my Roku. The remote could be a little bit better it’s OK just a bit too slippery but the interface is very smooth and easy to work with. I just will be glad when the infinity out finally comes to chrome cast after that so Rocky I’m out.

    A great deal, especially on sale now. They've been discontinued, so get one while you still can. The replacement from Google costs twice as much, and the "improvements" won't be noticed by most folks in reality. Don't worry Google has stated they will still support them, it's the same basic software, new one just has a little more storage memory most never use, and a little faster chipset, but still streams just the same

    Love this thing. I can turn on and off by tv since it's connected to my Google home. Has a ton of apps. I moved to this from a roku which I was happy with but may like this better. It's great that this comes with a remote but can also use a remote app from Google if I need to. It has tons of apps too and gives me the ability to cast my phone screen to the TV.

    IMO better than Fire TV

    I have owned Fire TV 4k stick for a long time. The sound is always way off on Fire TV. I have tried all sorts of options, but it never is in sync, not even close. If you fix it for one steaming, it messes up for another. I saw lot of good reviews and thought of trying Chromecast. Also I am an android user and have YouTube TV account, so it seemed like a natural fit. Overall I am so happy with Chromecast. The menu is simple and yet effective. The suggestions I get are very much aligned to my taste. The remote is super fast. I like the remote, although I would have liked it to be little bigger, little too small for a average user hand. All is not good with Chromecast yet, and may be future firmware release may fix some of the issues - Like for ex- even though I have updated my services I still get recommendations from services I have deselected. For ex, I do not have Disney+ and have deselected it, I still see recommendation for Disney+ movies. I guess google algorithm gives priority to your taste and recommends movies. Also sometime I see a movie listed as available on YouTube TV but when you click on it, it is available on some other streaming service. So there are some glitches that are annoying, however not enough to not own this product and recommend. It’s a keeper.

    Adding First Totally WIFI Television

    We are an older couple and just added our first totally WIFI supported television to our house. We needed the Chromecast to make sure that we got the channels provided by Spectrum and that we got the streaming services we subscribe to offering 4K. The Chromecast was one of the choices and it worked great. We also appreciate the Best Buy curbside pick up.

    This has become my go to streaking device. I use it to watch Netflix, Amazon Prime, DS Video, Apple TV, Vudu, etc. If it has one weakness is that it doesn’t support AirPlay. I use a Roku stick when I want to use AirPlay

    One of the best streaming devices out there. Dead simple to use and supports 4K and HDR. The apps are all linked to your Google account so if you're an Android user this is a breeze. Honestly one of the best Google products to date. I like the added remote with this model. I don't always want to use my phone.

    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.

    Bought this because the guy ironically named "Truth" that worked at the Spectrum Store said it word work with our Spectrum subscription..."Truth" lied :( ..Does not work with the Spectrum Subscription..Unless you download the app on your phone and use your phone as a remote....Other than that its great for a bedroom TV ! Wouldn't want this for primary TV though..I am not really into streaming, wasn't sure about this product but it has worked out ok....

    The Chromecast w/ Google TV was plug and play out of the box. Attached it to my TV and connected it to my Android phone without any problems. Now I'm watching Disney+, Netflix, and YouTube in the comfort of my living room. It's a great device to access your favorite shows. It was a worthwhile purchase and I recommend this for others.
