    The Take With You Streamer

    Really enjoyed the speed and feel of the device but like most other platforms was not a fan of the number of ads and system that promotes content they want you to buy. If you need something to take with you on a road trip and want to stream don't hesitate and get this one. You will get Dolby Vision and Atmos if your system can support it. Trust me this is the one to get.

    Absolutely love it, my first gen sony 4k with android tv was starting to have major issues with the OS, got this to help shore everything up. The remote is great, voice searching works fast and gives options to how to watch a specific show, or just searching YouTube. Would recommend to anyone.

    I finally bought it. I was long enough for an upgrade and I finally decided to get it. The wait is over and the interface is amazing and so easy to use. Once you link your streaming apps, google will recommend a bunch of shows, movies based on your likes and needs and it's very easy setup.

    OMG FANTASTIC! I used to have just a regular chrome cast but if you're inbetween this and the normal one, get this!! The remote is super easy to use, plus the home screen is super personalized. I've used roku, amazon fire sticks and everything in-between but this has been by far my fav purchase for my tv!

    I love my Chromecast with Google TV, I recently switched from an amazon fire TV box and the I immediately noticed the difference. Not only does the Chromecast connect me to my apps it also connects directly to my Google Home Hub and allows for hands free operation. I have no problem with freezing or lag as I did with the amazon fire tv box. Great addition to any TV

    It works great and the Google TV dashboard is nice. The only thing stopping this from being a 5 star is that it can lag at times.

    I have fireTV in many rooms and I thought I would try the Chromecast. I think it's better and easier to work with and now that the remote is included it's way better. I still have trouble streaming but just might be TV. Recommend it

    Incredibly east to set up with a beautiful interface. Input button doesn't work well with a Roku TV - however the Chromecast as a whole is an awesome addition and is much more preferred over the Amazon Firestick.

    Great Upgrade, but hid some old features

    Great upgrade from a second generation Chromecast. Nice to be able to watch content in 4k now without the need of using my TVs integrated apps. Only complaint is that they really prioritize usage of the new remote. Thie mainly takes away the ability for you to change the Chromecast volume via your phone's volume buttons without having to dig through the menus and find the option.

    The physical design is improved with the sleek form factor and the use of the remote makes it easy to browse and watch my shows without needing to search on my phone or other device to cast it to the chromecast. Price point is good and I would definitely recommend this over the competition.

    I purchased one of these for my basement home theater, and it's fantastic. Now I'm buying a second one to use upstairs with my smart TV, which has had constant issues for the past few months.

    What an upgrade Chromecast. This is a major step change in performance. Not quite the shield, but 1/4 the price. It can download most apps including HD Homerun which cannot be done on Roku. I'm using on my outdoor TVs and my game room TVs. Had a great deal at launch with Netflix bundle.

    Why Chromecast over Roku or Firestick?

    This is an excellent streaming device that allows you to access virtually everything you could with either ROKU or the FIRESTICK but additionally lets you access the Google Play store. That alone should be the reason anyone would choose the Chromecast over the competition. Where the other devices are limited, Chromecast does not have these barriers. Essentially giving users more options to customize their streaming experience to their preference. The additional option to add a separate USB-C hub with ethernet port makes the Chromecast the clear winner in the battle for streaming stick supremacy. I have my Corsair K63 connected and everything is working properly.

    OHHHH Man! I love the Google TV - so clean of interface when browsing my selections. The only issue I have is I can't have multiple accounts with the Google Services so my kids end up listening to music or watching youtube under my account. We pay for premium and now I get recommended kids videos.

    Got this to aid in Smart TV that is just old enough not to allow "casting" to anymore. Easy to set up (even I could do it!!), intuitive controller, and voila -- no more casting issues! Just starting to explore other options and having had a Firestick before, I'm quite happy with this as a replacement.

    I have way too many TVs and each of them has one of these except for the one with the PS4 and the one with the Xbox. Even the one in the garage where I workout. Love the remove and the casting convenience. I have crappy internet and these still work great.
