    Works well with both of my TVs Hisense and Sanyo. It was fairly simple to set up. Remote is compatible and will turn the TV on and off as well as adjust the volume. The remote has a button on it to activate voice control but you can't use voice control from other devices.

    The resolution is as promised. It's easy to use, and I had zero issues getting it set up and linked to my google account. However, it frequently lags and glitches. When its working its fantastic! Unfortunately it may take a bit to make it stop glitching and enjoy the show. Also, it has all these apps, is a google device, yet i cant download the xfinity stream or motortrend+ apps on it and still need another device to watch either of those.

    The setup was straightforward. I had some trouble opening the remote control to insert the batteries but this was a minor problem. Logging into the different streaming services was also easy. It was difficult to find some apps, though, such as the MasterClass app.

    Works as expected. Very responsive. I ended up replacing all the Fire sticks in my home because these are much faster. It's nice being able to cast from my phone or just use the remote. Definitely recommend if you are invested in the Google ecosystems.

    Very easy to set up. the voice search is pretty cool. As with all Google devices, it knows all of your accounts and searches them for whatever movie or show you are looking for. Connectivity is very solid. Plus you can control your tv's power and volume with it.

    THE BEST $50 STREAMER OUT! I'm a bit of a addict when it comes to these devices. I own them all, from the Shield Pro, to a few of those Android TV Boxes you see on Amazon and most everything in between. Believe me when I say this is the most complete device at the $50 price point.

    Very pleased that Chromecast now has a dedicated remote, but I still use my phone on occasion to cast. Also like the phone app that emulates the remote. The only drawback so far is the Chromecast remote appears only to control power to one external device.

    I bought this as a gift for my parents! I set this device up for my parents, and they are in love with this device, and so am I! I am now able to cast movies and shows to their TV screen to spark their interests. My parents are amazed with the ability to cast music as well!

    Plus: Home screen that gives you previews of what is trending or new. Hooks up with Google Assistant and comes in handy to control the TV from anywhere. It saves preferences and profiles. You can even watch TikTok on it. You can also talk into the remote as you would your phone when using Google Assistant. The Youtube and Netflix buttons come in handy because for whatever reason after watching a show we usually default to opening one of those 2 apps. Cons: I like the simplicity of only the 2 streaming service buttons, but part of me wonders what if we had more (such as hulu, hbo, disney etc) plus The navigation buttons are very similar to an old ipod (button with circular directional surrounding). They look and feel nice, but at times the buttons mash and you try to move right but end up moving down or up. That is the only reason why i gave a 4 star, if the buttons didnt mash i would give it 5 stars all the way!

    If you cut the cord or simply want a reliable streaming device with a remote and don't want to pay much, this is the one. Bought one for me originally months ago, just picked up one for my dad who had the Roku stick and he hasn't looked back.

    Turns any old TV into a smart TV. It turned my mom’s nearly 20 year old TV into a cutting edge display. Goolge’s interface is much nicer than Fire TVs and Roku.

    I am very happy with this device so far (2-3 months of daily use). I've had AT LEAST 7 Roku devices completely lose the ability to connect to WiFi over the past 3 years, so I'm hoping this holds up much better. The interface is quick and easy to navigate.

    Simply put it is magnificent. Smooth operation, no lagging, connected airtv via sling and I use it all the time. The voice control is second to none. Google assistant integration works seamlessly. Would I recommend it? Yes definitely I think they should add private listening.

    WOW! We finally broke up with DirecTV after 22+ years, cutting the cord and added a lot of streaming services during Covid. We bought a Roku Ultra, then Google launched this a week later. Hands down - no contest. It's fast, efficient and my Google Home can control it. Killer.

    The Chromecast With Google TV Is Awesome! Supports Dolby Vision, And 4K! But You Need A TV That Support's Either, In My Opinion Choose Chromecast With Google TV And TCL 5 Series Roku TV 50S535 I Promise You'll Be Happy! As It's The Best Combo!
