Solved Samsung TV casting problem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy setup, and solved a long-standing frustration for an older couple.
I would recommend this to a friendLike quality and functionality of Home screen ...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far we like the Google TV Streamer 4K . Haven't had for very long but so far we like it better than the FireTV that we were using. Better/more content and options and ability to configure Home screen than the limited (compared to this Google TV device) FireTV. So far, the only issue we have is that we were told that it will only allow one remote, whereas the FireTV allowed 2 remotes so my wife and I could both control it when needed, without throwing the single remote across to where she sits and vice versa. But I would still absolutely recommend because if they could ever resolve being able to use 2 (or more) remotes, it should be able to be handled by an auto update.

A much needed update
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm glad I upgraded from the previous model added storage, resolution, and capability make it worth the purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend Good value, but slower than Apple TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Google TV Streamer offers solid 4K HDR quality and great features for the price. However, I noticed some lag when navigating menus compared to the Apple TV, which feels quicker and more seamless. It’s a good budget-friendly option, but I’ll likely switch back to Apple TV for better speed and ease of use.

Close but not quite there yet.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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

I would recommend this to a friendGreat upgrade to chromecast
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google tv streamer is a great upgrade to the Chromecast 4k. It's got great storage and expandability. The best part is that this time around it has an Ethernet connection built in.

Good picture but annoyingly laggy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good picture quality. A definite improvement over the Google TV Chromecast it replaced. It's surprisingly laggy. Which is asinine given that it has more memory & a faster processor than the older Google Chromecast TV. Consider an alternative if you have one available?
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Google Team
Posted .Thanks for reaching out about your Google TV Streamer (4K), Daniel. Normally a quick reboot will solve several issues — here’s how:
1. Unplug the power cable from the streaming device.
2. Leave it unplugged for one minute.
3. Insert the cable back into the streaming device.

Solid 4K streambox
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy setup, great picture quality, honestly there's not much I didn't like about the general process. Works great and will consider them more in the future.
I would recommend this to a friend Google TV Streamer 4K
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

too bad I needed it because google stopped support
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.works and the remote control is a nice touch but so many things I don't subscribe to.
I would recommend this to a friend Google Home
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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

Good device
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Google TV 14 needs to be fixed.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Great streamer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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
