    I love this Nexus Player, it have youtube app installed, which I can watch video from youtube on my TV. Also, now I can cast stream everything I'm watching on my tablet on my TV.

    I bought this for the sole purpose of watching Netflix and Hulu, but found that it could do so much more. I am able to play games like Final Fantasy III with my bluetooth controller.

    Better than all the rest. It's Nexus and it's excellent and Google will continue to make it even better. I bought a gamepad so that I can enjoy some of the games. It's the best.

    Amazing player, does not log like Fire Stick. Setup was super easy and I am able to stream videos using plex media server. Love the interface. Returned the 3rd gen Apple TV.

    Works well with Netflix and Hulu because that's pretty much the only apps that are available at this time. My apple TV broke after 5 years and sales person indicated that the nexus performed better. That may be true but the limited number of Apps is a major limitation. Wait a year before you buy it.

    I purchased this as a gift. It is a step above the Chromecast and was a great deal when price matched against amazon. It works great and is really low maintenance.

    I have already Amazon Fire TV Stick and now I added this Google Nexus Player. It is easy to use especially with voice control. You can even launch apps using mic.

    The wireless works great and love the voice commands to get any movie title or just say the main actors name and there you go you have it right on the screen.
