The Chromecast with Google TV is perhaps the best streaming device available today, and right now, you can save $10 on it. Amazon has dropped the price down to just $40, which is $2 shy of its all-time low. But it’s unlikely that we will see the Chromecast drop any further before Prime Day in July.
This dongle from Google is a really good option for those who are looking for a streaming device for their TV. It brings all of the favorite features of a Chromecast with a remote and Google TV. Giving you the best of both worlds. Google TV is a really great platform for streaming TV, in fact it is my favorite.
One big reason for this is the TV Guide. If you subscribe to something like YouTube TV, Sling TV, or Hulu + Live TV, you can see the TV guide for all of your channels right on Google TV’s home screen. This also works for FAST streamers like Pluto TV and Tubi TV. So you don’t need to open an app, find nothing to watch, then go into another app and repeat. Additionally, Google TV is really good with recommendations. In my experience, it’s been better than really anything else out there right now, which is definitely saying something.
So this is Google TV. That means you’ve got access to the Play Store, including hundreds of thousands of apps and games. This includes apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube and much more. Google has also, obviously, included Google Cast and Google Assistant. Having the Assistant on your TV is a really big deal and definitely worth buying this for. You can control your smart home products with your voice using the remote and also tell the Assistant to open apps or play different titles.
For less than $40, this is a really good streaming dongle to pick up. And it also makes a great stocking stuffer this holiday season.
