    The interesting question is do you want add your TV viewing habits to the list of things Google already knows about you or you want to have 2 remotes?

      Let them have the data, do you not think every company has every piece of data on you that there is possible to have? We have lost, privacy is over, just get used to it or move into the woods with a tent

    Wish the CCast would still control volume. 🙁 Thanks Sonos

      it does control volume. you can also choose should the volume buttons control external sound bar volume or the TV volume etc.

      @Rushabh Shah. Used to be in software though which is a more elegant solution. (At least for us)

      But does it always have YouTube? 😅

    • Rushabh Shah.

      Google TV has a casting feature you cast anything on TV literally anything.

      Does Roku control more than one T.V. do I need a Roku for every T.V.?

    Let’s not forget how Roku frequently disputes with YouTube over availability

    • Sukh Singh Sandher

      December 21, 2022 at 5:47 pm

      So does google, in fact Chromecast didn’t have Amazon services for the longest time due to a years long dispute

    I have a Roku stick and it controls my TV streaming (on, off, volume, mute….) and I am extremely happy with it.

  8. Chris

    December 19, 2022 at 9:02 pm

    Don’t buy those. Buy Apple TV

  9. FastGinger

    December 19, 2022 at 9:53 pm

    this is not true.. my roku does all I need for my tv too.. Misleading.

  10. Airport Documentaries

    Don’t buy either buy a firestick

  11. HM2&JMtoo

    December 19, 2022 at 10:37 pm

    I don’t need both for my roku 🤔 odd report.

    but its google, hard pass

    I use Roku and I don’t need both.

    bought Chromecast already extremely happy with it. no hassle no issue extremely easy to use just with one remote and always suggests best recommendation above all it gives me content which will be on different Ott platforms all on one page. I don’t need to separately select different Ott platforms and search for content. 🤘🏻

    Google remote does not control all tvs… And roku has a way better search system and menu. Plus it’s cheaper

  16. Joe Waggoner

    There are multiple versions of the Roku available, some come with the Roku only remote, some that control the tv power and audio, and the highest tier that has the rechargeable battery and headphone jack.

    They could do with dropping the most basic remote but to act like it’s the only one they offer is a bit disingenuous.

    I have a Roku ultra and Fire stick 4k+.
    Of the two I prefer Roku.
    I still haven’t tried Google tv.

    Wrong information. Roku remote can very well control TV

  19. Matt Simpson

    December 21, 2022 at 2:13 pm

    That is not accurate. You DO NOT need both remotes with Roku. You obviously are not an ‘expert’ nor know what you are talking about.

    People jail break the Fire Stick to side load apps. Roku, I don’t think there is an easy way to load unsupported apps. With Chromecast TV, there is a limitless amount of apps you can install. Even ones that people jail break for, are available. This means you can literally stream anything!

    • The Gadget Guru

      December 21, 2022 at 4:01 pm

      Yup that’s so true I remember having a Roku then a Chromecast then the Chromecast with google tv I didn’t really like Roku that much anyways too locked down shall we say

    🤣 death to Roku everybody bring out your pitchforks

    The remote for the Roku stick and the Roku Ultra can both control the TV. Almost every Roku review says to at least go to the streaming stick and to skip the Express.
