    So far I have liked the speed and ease of use, I upgraded from the chromecast. It was pretty easy to setup and it loaded some of my apps from the chromecast. Only downside is you have still have wires that show, but I was able to work around that.

    I've had all the chromecasts through the years. This is by far the best one. If these were constantly around $75 it'd be a no brainer. Fast connection, improved remote. Easy to use still.

    I am a huge fan of these devices. Built-in Ethernet works better for me. Quick setup, very responsive, and better remote features

    Sadly, discontinued. Remote feature button finder is very nice remote. However, it's a very fragile treat with care. DIPLAYS IN 4K ONLY AT 60FPS 60 HZ. Very nice to be able to cast from bone directly to projector.

    Great device. Use it with my old plasma tv in the bedroom. Super snappy response time as you navigate the OS. I like the remote and how easy it was to sync to my old TV so I can use it to power on and control volume as well. If you have an old TV that you like, but doesn't have smart features, I highly recommend this unit.

    Its superfast never felt a lag with any of the services I am using. The only gripe I have is if the remote had a few extra customizable buttons it would have been even more awesome. Delivery was prompt on time.

    Not worth upgrade

    If you are upgrading from the Chromecast with google TV 4K, its not worth paying double the price, Agree its faster but not higjly noticeable though double RAM and Ethernet present. Picture amd audio quality is same as previous midel. I have 200 inch screen in a dedicated home theater and didn’t see any difference. Expected a lot with double the price. If looking for a chromecast, better go with older model itself. May be you can go with this if looking to use other options of using othrr than streaming. If its just for streaming, not worth $99

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Works so much better than the previous versions. Zero issues whatsoever. And the free channels are great. Definitely the best out of the ones that are out there. I've had fire stick and Roku. This is by far the best and you don't get a million ads. Plus it keeps track of your watched so you can easily pickup where you left off.

    Its a google product so you never know what to expect. The item is packaged very well. The item was not easy to setup since it connected to my internet easily via the google home app but then my phone couldn't see it after that I need to proceed with manual setup. Device updated and thought everything was working but it is not turning the TV off and on. Once device is setup, I am not able to find where to setup the TV so it will turn the TV off and on when turning the device on. I might need to just reset the device and start over. I am liking that you can have dual profiles on one device though since that was missing on the last google device. Super easy to use and everything is very snappy and fast. I would recommend this device besides the painful setup process.

    Perfect as a simple streamer, but some caveats

    Google TV does arguably have the best user interface compared to other smart TV/streaming devices, however this definitely has some pitfalls. For example, it does not have wifi 6, so I'm homes with many devices, the interference can cause notable latency and occasionally affect video quality. The video decoding times are also not great, but that's only really relevant in the context of gaming, one of the reasons I purchased this item to serve as the client for LAN game streaming.

    Took less than 5 minutes to install and it works perfectly. No more satellite for TV. This is my second one and the other one is still going strong. I am a technical dunce so I like the simplicity of this device. I highly recommend it.
