Chromecast with Google TV (4K)- Streaming Stick Entertainment on Your TV with Voice Search - Watch Movies, Shows, and Live TV in 4K HDR - Sky Blue with Accessories

I do recommend this device. I was using my Xbox for TV viewing for years. There were a few issues, but the Xbox is very much overbuilt for just watching TV, so things went generally smoothly. Previously, quite a few years ago, I used an Amazon fire device. That device just got slower and slower until I got so frustrated I threw it away. Had about four Rokus, same deal - just like the Fire cube, the Rokus seem to get their brains full and they start to act like they're reacting to everything in slow motion. You get what you pay for, I guess, and the Xbox was the greatest solution for a long time. I do recommend using an Xbox, except setup is typical Microsoft, very confusing and management is aggravating, as you have to decide on "plans" to pay Microsoft in various ways. Now I have this. I got it because I had one in the bedroom. The NUMBER ONE best thing about this device, after confirming it is NOT a piece of junk (in the bedroom there have been no slowing down over time issues at all), the thing my Xbox did TERRIBLY, was the content and design of the home page. I'm currently watching a free movie I had NO IDEA was available. It was easy to find on the Chromecast home page, which shows you lots of great content (UNLIKE the Xbox, which is NOT helpful in ANY way with it's after-thought-inspired home page. The other thing, the actual motivation for me to ditch the Xbox for the Chromecast, is that you can not get the Roku Channel on Microsoft devices. I'm glad to be off the Xbox, and might end up selling it. The remote control is great - it's sensitive and every button press works, even with obstructions. I highly recommend this device, as well as setting up the Roku Channel (TRC) when you get it. You may find you can cancel three or four other channels and watch even better stuff on the Roku channel for free. The content is quite excellent, and you can find shows like "Pawn Stars" that are simply not otherwise available, or cost money ... but on TRC they are free. Best wishes and happy TVing!

The Google Chromecast with Google TV has revolutionized my home entertainment setup, providing a seamless and feature-rich streaming experience. Here's why this streaming stick has become an integral part of my entertainment hub: Simple Setup: Setting up the Chromecast with Google TV was a breeze.

Whether I'm watching movies, TV shows, or gaming content, the clarity and vibrant colors delivered by the Chromecast are truly impressive. The device ensures that every detail is sharp and lifelike. Google TV Interface: The Google TV interface is a game-changer. It aggregates content from various streaming services into one easy-to-navigate platform. The personalized recommendations based on my viewing habits have introduced me to new shows and movies that I might have missed otherwise.

The remote is intuitive, and the inclusion of shortcut buttons for popular streaming services enhances the overall convenience. The ability to control the TV's power and volume with the Chromecast remote is a thoughtful touch.

It seamlessly integrates with my smartphone, allowing me to share videos, photos, and even specific apps directly to the big screen. Affordability: Considering the 4K streaming capabilities, the Google TV interface, and the overall performance, the Chromecast with Google TV offers exceptional value for its price. It competes with higher-priced streaming devices while delivering a premium experience. Conclusion: The Google Chromecast with Google TV has become the centerpiece of my home entertainment system.

Love my Chromecast. My smart TV stopped connecting to the internet. This works great, spilled a drink on the remote so that glitches, wish I could just replace the remote.

Excelente producto recomendado 💯%

Overall - and most importantly - it does what it's supposed to do. Setup was quick and easy, especially if you have an account and/or devices in the Google-verse. The user interface is snappy and responsive, and will be instantly familiar if you have similar devices. It appeared instantly in our Google Home app and it's seamlessly integrated. It comes with a small built-in HDMI dongle so it can simply hang from the back of your TV/monitor. The only problem I ran into was getting it to control the volume, but that's likely our issue because I have it connected to a widescreen computer monitor versus a standalone TV. I just adjust the monitor's built-in volume instead and will eventually install a TV to replace it. On the downside, the remote is a bit odd. It works correctly - but the body, buttons, and control wheel are all a uniform white, and the labels are printed in grey in a very tiny font. The product images show a dark grey voice remote button, but ours is white everywhere. So every time I pick it up I go through a second or two of mental gymnastics as to whether it's right-side up or upside down. For the Chromecast it really doesn't matter, I believe it uses RF (wireless) to signal the dongle so it doesn't need to be pointed in any specific direction. But there appears to be a small IR emitter on the top, so aiming is important if you're communicating with a TV or similar infrared-controlled device. I realize this is a relatively minor issue, but we've had this for about a month and it bugs me a little bit very day. Again however, it works as stated and is a good value for the money.

I was a long time user of the original chrome cast and decided it was finally time to see what was out there in terms of upgrading. Boy am I glad I did. Not only is the response time faster, picture quality impressive (4K), it even has voice recognition and can find what you ask for by searching all the apps you have installed. There is a little bit of setup involved to get all your on demand video apps passwords entered and setup, but once you do, you’re good to go. It has profiles for multiple users and it’s simple to use without having to configure a bunch of things (except initial setup). My biggest gripe with this is that sometimes I accidentally hit buttons on the remote which will stop what I’m watching and launch something else and there is no quick easy way (that I know of yet) to get back to what I was watching. I have to navigate back to the app and what I was watching and then it will resume from where I was. It would be nice if it had a swap button so you can watch one app, swap to another, then swap back to where you were and resume where you left off. Maybe that will come eventually, who knows, but I have learned to just keep my hands off as much as I can when watching something. It usually happens when watching YouTube because I frequently hold the remote to skip commercials and that’s when I accidentally hit the Netflix button or something else, but with YouTube there is a dedicated button there so I can get back to that quickly. The problem arises when watching Hulu or Vudu or some other app. That being said, I still love it and I’m glad to finally have a smart tv without having it built into the tv (although my tv does have built in apps but updates were recently discontinued and I can no longer use the native smart tv apps but that’s another story for another time). In the meantime, there’s google tv with chrome cast. It gets 10 thumbs up from me and four other people.

Chromecast 2020 is the 5th generation of devices today. Google TV has some differences compared to Android TV that come with some benefits. The entire body is streamlined, made of matte plastic. It is pleasant to the touch and does not accumulate fingerprints. Available on the market in 3 colors: white, blue and pink. It has a monolithic HDMI cable, the length of which is 5 cm, excluding the input. The power connector is in USB Type-C format. There is also an LED on the case and a button to reset the set-top box to the state from the factory. Chromecast does not support Ethernet connection. Only Wi-Fi (with excellent parameters). Optionally, you can buy a power supply unit with a LAN connector for cable connection. Remote controller The remote control is very compact with a small number of keys on the front panel. Only 9 main buttons + joystick. What's interesting are the shortcut keys for YouTube and Netflix, as well as the Google Assistant. The rest of the keys are already familiar and do not need to be presented. To change the volume level, there is a knob on the side panel, similar to smartphones. Accessories The most important thing that is in this model: Chipset - Amlogic S905D3G. It is known for good stability and relatively low thermal output. At the same time, it has 4 Cortex-A55 cores with a frequency of 1.9 GHz and a Mali-G31 MP2 graphics core at 850 MHz. For 4k processing, this is enough. Memory. RAM 2 GB, a little, but the device is enough. Built-in memory is 8 GB, but the Google TV system takes up half of it. Software Google TV is practically no different from the familiar to many Android. The only difference is the use of the new launcher. To be honest, this is even good, because on the new console you can put almost any application that you can imagine. Notable differences between Google TV and Android TV: More featured content. It occupies a significant part of the main screen, taking away some of the space from the list of pre-installed applications. Google Play is on a separate menu tab. There is no need to enter the application itself, since the main services and catalog search are available from the main menu. Advanced search. Under it, a whole tab was allocated. Popular queries are immediately displayed here, and it is also possible to sort everything by genre. Library. In addition to purchased content, you can store movies here, as in favorites. Setting. It happens extremely simply and quickly through the Google Home smart home application. You need to scan a QR code, the rest of the procedure is almost completely automated. Content broadcast. One of the main reasons for buying a device. There is nothing special here, the function works and does not raise additional questions. Supports streaming from a smartphone, tablet, etc. through various applications. You can use Android TV Remote Control to set up the media player. Allows you to almost completely replace the standard remote control. It's just convenient, and in case of loss or breakage is very useful. Excellent image quality. 4k at 60 fps is a excellent result for such a small device. The player also supports Dolby Vision and modern versions of HDR: HDR10, HDR10+. Deep sound. Support for Dolby Digital, DD + and Dolby Atmos affected the sound quality for the better. Movies are fun to watch. Performance. Even large films from the Internet or a local network pull perfectly, without hitches and long buffering. True, for this you need a good video player (for example, Vimu). The interface itself is nimble, responsive and smooth. Working with streaming platforms Video from YouTube and Netflix pulls and does not create a feeling of thoughtfulness of the set-top box at any resolution. The launch of the application itself takes 2-3 seconds. Application installation. They can be quickly installed from the Play Market, but there is also support for apk applications. This requires only the presence of an apk file and a file manager (for example, X plore).

Excelente, aunque muy poca capacidad de memoria

Great item for a rather low price for a product from Google. It does lag a bit sometimes, but its not too noticable.

​The packaging and the quality of the product is excellent

Tengo una pantalla que ya tiene algo de tiempo y solo lo instale y seguí el procedimiento de configuración y funciona super, ya tengo 3 o 4 años con el a la fecha funciona muy bien, ojo!! El control es algo delicado, y necesita pilas forzosamente de la marca duracell para que funciones super bien con el audio y todo pero hasta eso las pilas que vienen le duran bastante, y estoy por comprarme el más nuevo chrome cast (el más actual)

I am all set up with Google so I found this to be a good choice and very easy to use compared to other devices..

very fantastic and useful product it's functioning very smoothly and faster
