Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to enhance my new OLED TV and I can tell a noticeable difference using this device over the previous Chromcast with Google TV. Better picture and faster. This also doesn't seem to have the issues of crashing that my last one had. Would recommend.

A solid streamer overall if you're using it for general Netflix/Disney/Hulu type streaming. For those with more specific needs, it may fall short as it's missing some important audio codecs. Overall, a solid performer.

Excellent quality love the find my remote feature.

The Google streamer makes my 20 year old tv work like a new digitally ready one.

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.

Excellent upgrade from previous Chromecast, love the new remote as well

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

Overall a very similar experience to the cheaper google TV. However the larger remote and the ability to ping the remote when lost are a life saver with toddlers in the house

Overall works great. Love the Google Live TV options. Picture and Audio Quality thru my amplifier is still not as good as my Apple TV 4K

I’m mostly purchased this device in an effort to have a Google Home device that has hub capabilities and was matter and thread capable. I’ve been fortunate to have a few devices that work well with it and I’ve been able to create some routines that I wasn’t able to before. I will say that most of the regular features in terms of Google Home streaming hasn’t proven any different than the interface that I am familiar with on my television. I have several Google Home televisions in my house. It would’ve been nice to have some differentiation or some stand out feature That makes it worth getting over an Apple TV. To me from the brief time that I’ve had it it probably would’ve served me better to stick with my Apple TV.

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.

The Google Streamer has been a good improvement over Google Chromecast. It was worth the upgrade and works great! Tons of free TV choices too!

Super fast, no buffering, ethernet port,32g storage,/4g ram

So far so good. Faster than previous model. Better storage

A little slow starting up but not as slow as chromecast with google tv. Compare to Apple TV the picture and sound are better on the streamer.

The google tv streamer was better than I anticipated. The remote is comptaible with the TV thus not needing the original remote to adjust the volume or turn on or off the tv is needed.

Works as it should! Great improvement over the last version.

A further great improvement over the previous chromecast models. Works flawlessly, top picture quality and better remote. Less quirks than the Amazone cube.

This a great streamer, lots of options, easy to use. Overall a great experience. Great quality and easy to use. There is not a long uptime to ramp up to use it.

I have no complaints so far. It's speedier than my Chromecast with Google TV, but I still haven't owned it for too long. Google Home is a bigger part of this package, but I find that I haven't used that at all. Remote is nicer with more buttons in addition to a customizable button.
