    Very small and slippery you will need a silicone cover for a better grip. Using it with YuoTube TV. A very poor confusing interface only made usable b/c the voice control works well to navigate quickly roto what you were looking to see.

    Definitely an upgrade over the Chromecast but not by much. I like how they improved the UI experience and the smoothness when scrolling on the homepage. I also like the features like the home app and the streaming quality is solid.

    A very good device, mostly useful for older pcs that lack smart tv functionality, or for tvs that have a slow smart tv functionality. Very snappy and fast, though sometimes has issues when working with a vpn app. Most of the time it works great.

    I wanted to like it, I really did. I have a connected google household, and I thought this would fit right in. I did like that you can see all of your devices on the screen, that was pretty cool. The setup was pretty easy. However, I don't like the UI compared to the roku ultra. I like the app/tile setup better on the roku. The google streamer has all of the tiles listed horizontally. You have to keep scrolling right to get to the tile you want. It's alot easier to scroll down with the vertical and horizontal 4x4 tiles on roku. Oh, and there is the video quality which was a deal breaker for me. I turned on "Reacher" The show broadcasts in hdr10+. The show looks glorious on my 85 inch sammy. I started to notice every 5 or 6 seconds that the video would look like slow motion for a second or 2 and then it would be normal again. This happened again and again. I had it hooked up via ethernet so no problems with my internet speed. I next tried a movie, "Kraven the hunter". The same thing started happening again. That was enough for me. I am returning this. I know that the google streamer, and the roku ultra have different brand chips in them. Maybe this is the reason that the google product doesn't stream smoothly. All I know is I hooked up the roku again, and I have flawless smooth video again. Maybe there are still some kinks to work out with this streamer as it is only a few months old. Maybe I will give this a try again in a year or 2.

    Does what it's supposed to do overall so no real issues there. Some apps work better than others but that's not really a fault of the device. Easy to set up as well.

    Design is very minimalistic, and the remote has a simple design which makes it easy to understand for any user. For consumers who've never used Chromecast I'd say the setup instructions can be more clear. Overall the casting quality is really good, and compared to previous Chromecast models, it's a major improvement.

    My previous generation google tv died just under four years (able to exchange under four year protection plan I bought). The new one does feel faster than the last and very happy with it. The remotes are very light and slippery so you kind of have to buy a sleeve for it on amazon, but no big deal.
