Love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installation to TV was easy. However, directions for connecting to remote device should be included. Had to "goggle" for connections/download instructions.

You know it's good, it's google
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased it too hastily, it only supports a small number of my video files so I am unable to use it for my needs but works great for viewing web content.

Did not do what I bought it for, misrepresented
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I thought it would be great for the price, needed wifi access on my TV. Although it makes accessing YouTube easy, it buffers constantly. I originally wanted to mirror my tablet, but found I had to use Google Chrome, which is not compatible with my tablet (samsung). My Roku does a much better job at running Netflix and YouTube, I can't mirror tablet, which I wanted for Skype purposes. I'm sad.

Google needs to fix it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked as expected initially, but got disconnected after 45 minutes or so. I had to reset it to get it working again. For some online streaming videos there was a lot of lag. Netflix worked best on the device, but again it got disconnected after a while.
