    I would have left 5 stars if the streamer was a true nvidia shield replacement. But it is missing full audio codec support to playback ripped blu ray in their full detail. Some files just won’t play properly. It is a nice device, it has plenty of video codecs available, DV HDR10+. It is speedier than last gen but the nvidia shield is still my go to. If you aren’t worried about plex file support and have a Samsung tv, the streamer is a great option for hdr10+ along with the newest Apple TV. It is nice that it runs the latest version of google tv

    Upgraded from Google TV, faster. An issue with random echoing sounds when set to Bitstream on my external speakers. Keep in mind speakers are over 15 yrs old. Probably can be fixed with an update.

    Wonderful Streaming device and solved an issue I had with my Apple TV 4K. I loved my apple streamer because I have ipads that it could communicate with. The issue is that it did not communicate well with my JBL sound bar in that I would lose sound at times and would have to go back a page or restart the apple box. I have another apple box amd JBL sound bar on another tv with same results. This does not happen with the Google TV Streamer 4K.

    Google TV 14 needs to be fixed.

    More than the device, the OS, Google TV 14, needs some fixes. App search is quite flawed, and Google Play Store app is deeply nested into system settings, almost impossible to find. The device itself is snappy and easy to use.

    Really works good great picture and sound, very affordable. Now the remote works okay, but super slippery and seems to be for small hands. Ordered a remote case from Amazon but like usual it's late delivery

    I like it … but I bought it more for integration of other Google products so I haven’t been able to fully explore that. I will update my review once that is completed. Setting up Google products are always more tedious than expected, but once set up it’s always good

    The longer remote is easily the best upgrade. The response between applications is very smooth. If you're in the market to upgrade then get it, but if you already have the Chromecast then there's no rush to change.

    Great interface, dodgy remote

    I like the OS, and it's definitely snappier than the Chromecast with Google TV 4K. However, the remote's d-pad can stick from time to time, causing you to zoom past your selection, or can fail to respond. I also miss having a rechargeable remote. In contrast, the Roku has a less appealing interface, but their remotes are rechargeable and more responsive. I'd pay $50-100 more for a truly high-end Google Streamer with the same interface, a bulletproof remote, and specs to match the old but venerable NVIDIA Shield. Too bad nobody wants to make it.

      Hey there, KRSFun. Thank you for providing your insight for your Google TV Streamer (4K). We're happy that you are enjoying the OS and the improved speed. That said, here are some quick troubleshooting steps for when you feel the remote is not responsive:

      Remove both batteries from the remote.
      Reinsert them and check if the LED flashes twice.
      If the LED doesn’t flash twice, remove and reinsert the batteries within two seconds. Repeat if needed.
      If the LED still doesn’t flash twice, replace the batteries with the original ones that came with the remote. If these batteries aren't available, use two fresh 1.5-volt AAA batteries.
      Lastly, remove both batteries, wait 5 minutes, then reinsert them while checking for the LED to flash twice.

      If the problem persists, our team is always happy to help. Get in touch here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp?hl=en madebygoogle

    Google stream was easy to install to my Google TV. It allowed me to return my box to Verizon and save some money. It is well worth the cost.
