Google TV hub
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very simple setup. Much faster response with the ethernet connection. Built in smart hub that displays on the TV works well.
I would recommend this to a friendGood 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.

Average streamer with a glitch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for bedroom TV with the Nest Speaker. When I connect to speaker, YouTube TV app will not open! No help from Google or the online community. Not currently using speaker. Otherwise, this is an ok streamer but nothing special. From reviews, other brands seem as good for less.

I would recommend this to a friendEasy to find content
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using both the Google and Ruko devices, and the Google streaming device is easier to find the content I am looking for. The home page has more than just the apps.
I would recommend this to a friendSo much more hassle than a Chromecast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as a replacement for an aging Chromecast. For me, it's been extremely frustrating. The Chromecast was so simple. Just cast from my phone - done! With this device? Nope! As I've seen mentioned in another user's review, this device annoyingly requires a separate Netflix sign in to the app on the device. I tried removing the Netflix app from the device and casting directly from Netflix on my phone, as I would with a Chromecast, but that did not work. I'm forced to use an awkward arrangement with Netflix logged in both on this device and my phone, and the two sometimes seem to conflict. Even the setup was annoying. I had to search the web and then navigate through layers of settings to be able to control audio from my phone's app. I realize there is a separate "remote" in Google Home, but why should I use that when I'm already in the app I want to cast from? Why not just let me control the very basic functions that I always could, and the only ones I need, like Chromecast used to? Many times I want to throw this device against the wall. The device probably has many features that I'm not using, as others leaving high reviews seem to experience. For me, though, it makes me want to scream in frustration almost daily, and I hate that I feel like I was coerced into getting a device with degraded functionality and charged extra for it.

Home run streaming box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used Fire TVs and Chromecasts back and forth, I think Google TV is it. Googles current interface hits it out the park. I feel like Amazon's ui is just slow and looks dated
