    I really wanted this to be a perfect device, but the apps that were available for, namely Plex and Netflix, ruined it. And the remote control feels cheap, and noisy. Plex is unreliable and crashes fairly often. Netflix doesn't stream in surround, and per Netflix support, it's developed by Google and is something they need to fix. I know Android 5.1 is now available, so I'll be testing that out very soon. I'm hoping that is is much more reliable.

    This is the best streaming device out there. Lot's of apps. Very simple remote control. I like the versatility of a Chromecast device and my wife likes the simplicity of a Roku. This is the best of both worlds.

    this is a great little device, but unfortunately some times it acts up, it has been updated to the latest android version and sometimes i have to restart it to claim functionality, it could be a software glitch who knows, also it seems that development has been stop.

    Love the Nexus player, it's basically a miniature non touch tablet that hooks up to your TV. You can use it as a video game emulator, install a file explorer app and share files across multiple Android devices on your home network. You can use a USB on the go cable and add more external memory as internal memory and so much more. Love it, I actually have 2 at my home.

    I love my Nexus Player. In fact, this is the third one I have purchased. I'm not sure I'd be as happy with it if I had paid full price though. But if you can find one for around $50 is totally worth it.

    The device work good so far. There are some point I need to say. First it only can turn off or on or control the device from the remote only. Second the casting is not working easy as any other casting devices.

    I bought this to replace an aging GoogleTV box. Seems pretty solid. I don't see much advantage over the Amazon Fire TV, and frankly I miss having the build in blu-ray player that the GTV box had. If you don't have a set top box already, it's a decent choice.
