Best streaming device for the cost
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had a Google Chromecast & a smart TV originally. Both were slow, and just always had issues with connecting to my Denon Atmos AVR. This is not only a major upgrade, but picture quality even increased. Highly recommend.

This makes a big difference in video quality
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was using my tvs operating system for a long time but researched that a proper streaming device can help decode a lot more different types of video files. What can I say other than WOW this made our tv colors pop, I will be buying another soon.

I would recommend this to a friendA Better Option for Parent Controls, Not Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was the better option for my teen, and lockout from our very curious younger child. As for my teen, since we were already using Family Link for his phone and tablet, this just makes more sense. However, nobody (i.e. Apple or Amazon) can seem to get parental controls right! Still lacking in this department. I have not used it much, but performance seem better than even the latest Firestick. The porcelain color remote tells the truth of what black remotes tend to hide! Yuck. Think back to when computer keyboards and mice were light in color!

I would recommend this to a friendGoogle's best streamer to date.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I always come away impressed with Google's chromecast and streamer products. One of the best things about this is the layout of content on the home screen, where it gives you easy access to plenty of free tv streaming in addition to the normal apps like netflix, prime, hbo, ect. Where it beats the apple tv: I love the option for ethernet. Where it fails against the apple tv: The interface can get a little stuttery at times. The picture brightness seems to be darker than when I use an apple tv in the same port on my tv.

I would recommend this to a friendWas very excited about the hardware upgrades only
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just got mine today, upgraded from a CCwGTV 4k and after using it I think I am going to return it and go back to CCwGTV. First of all I always had my streaming sticks connected to the HDMI in on my soundbar and had audio passthrough on my Chromecast and my Roku previously and it worked great. This way my sound bar decodes the audio and it works great. Tv always displays if it is DD, DD+, etc. Well the Google streamer does not support audio passthrough whatsoever that I can find and decodes everything. I have it connected to HDMI in on my soundbar and it displays DTHD on my TV for everything even if its PCM audio. Soundbar now only plays PCM out of the 2 stereo speakers where previously using CCwGTV my soundbar would make it into 5.1 surround sound even for PCM, yes it is not real 5.1 but it worked really well and I no longer have that option. Also since the streamer decodes audio I have so many issues with adjusting the volume on my soundbar. When changing channels and apps, I will adjust the volume and it shows it is changing on the soundbar but the volume level stays the same. If you mute and unmute after adjusting the volume immediately changes to that level. Didn't have this issue with CCwGTV. And one more thing i noticed is the viewpoint resolution for YouTube and YTTV is 1920 x1080 instead of 4k. CCwGTV says 1920 x 1080 *2 aka 4k. Is it something to do with android 14 vs 12? Idk but makes no sense it would be lowered. To me this is a downgrade as CCwGTV was not that slow and I never had enough apps to fill up the storage so after being excited about this device I'm now so disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Google Team
Posted .Hello there. The Google TV Streamer 4K does not support audio passthrough, meaning it decodes the audio itself instead of passing it to your soundbar. To help you get the best sound experience, here's a helpful link to Google's guide on sound settings: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6290498

I would recommend this to a friendGoogle tv streambox
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty decent streaming box. I appreciate the ability to have express VPN on it, kinda buggy software but hey that's Google. If you're in the ecosystem this is a good buy/upgrade for a Chromecast 4k
I would recommend this to a friendQuality little TV streamer
