Google Streamer better than FireTV Cube !
The Google Streamer is excellent. Fast, easy to use and allows 3rd party apps. Firestick is locking that option out soon. Like Roku. CORPORATE GREED. Anyways, this product works well.* one notation: Requires an HDMI cable which is NOT included. Come on Google, Really ?

Better than Apple TV OS.
I’ve got the latest, most powerful version of streaming hardware from both Apple TV and Google TV. And goodness gracious, is Google far better.First of all, the home screen is genuinely interesting. Everything I might want to watch is already there. A movie I’m thinking about is just five clicks away. I don’t even have to search for everything. It reads my mind. A mix of YouTube recommendations and movies recommendations. So spot on. I’ve found great shows I like to watch. It’s just amazing.Apple, on the other hand, gives you absolutely nothing but a grid of apps. You have to open up each app individually to see their own recommendations. Please, it would be much better to aggregate recommendations across services into one beautiful user interface the way it is on Google TV OS.Also, this may be controversial, I find the remote control design for Google TV OS far, far better. First of all, it has a built-in light and speaker for when you are trying to find it. So useful! The Apple TV OS remote does not have a light or a speaker or Precision Finding, so it’s nearly impossible to find and much easier to lose due to it being much, much thinner. It will slide into crevices. Also, the Apple TV remote control has a very finicky trackpad that’s unnecessary. The Google TV OS remote control does use disposable batteries. That could be a tiny bit disappointing compared to a rechargeable one. It is still overall better designed because it’s more ergonomic. And I do use the hotkey buttons for YouTube and Netflix. The way they implement hotkeys is actually rather nice when usually- these hotkeys for apps are just a crowded obnoxious mess on most other TV remote controls.Where Apple TV has clear benefits is if you are interested in activities besides video consumption, because the Apple TV is also capable of playing some mobile games, and some Apple Arcade games with a connected controller. It is also capable of syncing to your Apple Watch and doing follow-along workout videos with Apple Fitness. Neither of these extra-curricular activities interest me, and I’m still going to go to the Google TV OS because its YouTube app is far more functional. Videos will auto-play when you hover the cursor over them. This is not a fact on Apple TV OS.Also, Google TV OS has a much more versatile option for keyboards. The Apple TV OS linear keyboard all in one row is maddening! On top of being forced to use Apple’s dictation model that has always been far inferior to Google’s speech-to-text model. Volume control is another interesting aspect because Google TV OS shows you a representation with numbers 0 to 100, so you can really dial that into exactly what you want. Apple TV OS, on the other hand, just has a sliding bar similar to how it looks on iPhone. There’s no numbers. Ridiculous for a television.

Great upgrade — smooth performance and a clean, easy interface
I really love this Google TV Streamer! My old remote was so finicky — sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t — so this has been a huge improvement. Everything feels faster and more reliable. The interface is clean, smooth, and easy to navigate, which makes finding shows and switching between apps effortless.I also appreciate the design details, like the white remote. It sounds small, but it actually makes a big difference — I can finally spot it easily when it disappears between couch cushions or on a dark surface.My only minor complaint is that the volume control on the remote occasionally stops working. When that happens, I just power the TV off and back on, and it’s fine again. It’s rare (maybe once every 15–20 uses), so not a dealbreaker by any means.Overall, it’s a great streaming device that delivers exactly what it promises — fast performance, great picture quality, and a user-friendly experience.

Finally upgraded from my old Apple TV and……..
I waited way too long to upgrade. I’ve been using the same apple tv since 2018. I never got something new because that still worked for what I was using it for.I should have bought this sooner. First-I switched from an iPhone to a Pixel ProFold 9 last year. This streamer COULD NOT WORK MORE FLWAWLESSLY with my phone.Signing in to every streaming service was so simple. Setting up the Google Photos screensaver was easy. It comes with everything in the box–Including rubber pads for the bottom of the streamer so that it doesn’t slide on smooth surfaces.The remote is fantastic. Compared to the old Apple TV touch remote, this is miles ahead. Having physical buttons to navigate is the exact analog, clicky, old school remote feeling that you want.I don’t know if the experience is as flawless on an iPhone because I didn’t try it–But as far as setting it up on my ProFold 9–I cannot stress how easy it was.Picture quality is fantastic, and it is incredibly fast to load.I honestly can’t think of a single complaint. If you have an older device for streaming, you should upgrade. It’s worth it, and I would recommend this over any Apple TV product 100% of the time.

Funciona excelente, gran producto, lo tengo conectado a una barra de sonido y monitor, fácil de configurar y añadir todas las cuentas de mis diferentes servicios, y los 4gb de ram lo hace muy rápido a comparación de una tele de tamaño mediana.

Product is really good and fits my needs.
