NVIDIA - SHIELD Pro - Black

Amazon Video is not compatible with it yet. I even tried to manually install the APK, but it crashes every time I launch the app. I hear they're working it out. We'll see. Any peripheral one might hook up would have to be via Bluetooth, so my wireless USB keyboard/mouse wouldn't work. I had to buy a Bluetooth mini-keyboard which works great. The USB port in the back of the Shield would seem to only be for additional storage which is best formatted by the Shield. Overall, it's a good system with some powerful hardware, and you can install almost any Android app you want. I set mine up as a Plex server, so I can manage all my media in one place and stream from it.

The Nvidia shield is a sleek elegant looking gadget. I love the fact that there is a headphone jack built into the remote & game controller so that if I want to listen to something quietly I can just plug in earphones. I also love that I am able to speak my search requests via Google voice. Access to all my favorite tv services like Netflix, Hulu etc... Not only does this product perform well, but it looks great while doing so.

Lo tengo desde hace casi 5 años y trabaja como el primer día. El equipo que más update tiene en su vida (record). Me encanta tener la primera parte es grande y de seguir disfrutando de este excelente equipo. Gracias Nvidia and Best Buy.

I bought the Pro version for it's extra 500GB of storage. This device excels at streaming and gaming. I chose this over the Roku 3 and new Fire TV for a streaming device due to it being much faster and for it's ability to run Kodi and many emuators(MAME, etc), plus, the capability to stream at 4K 60hz, which makes it fairly "future proof". It's gaming ability is also top-notch, which lies somewhere between the last generation's consoles(Xbox 360, PS3) and the current ones(Xbox One, PS4), at least hardware-wise. I just downloaded Doom 3 and it runs smooth and looks great. Obviously, the games selection is way below the consoles but there is still plenty to choose from, including android games to high end PC games and many of them are FREE. The Play Store isn't the full version you'd find on any Android phone but many apps or games you can't find there can be "side-loaded" via ES Explorer. Also, this device can be rooted, just like a phone, but I haven't found the need to do that just yet. All in all, this is probably the best streaming device on the market, with only the Roku 4 rivaling it, in my opinion, and it's a bonus that it's also a decent gaming system, too, and I hope this device gets even better with future firmware updates.

Absolutely the best Android TV device on the market. It's very powerful and is capable of 4K HDR video output, assuming you have a capable television. Allows you to use it as a Chromecast and you can download apps and games to play on the big screen. You can also stream games from your NVIDIA GeForce powered computer to play on your TV over your local network with virtually no input lag. This device can also be used as a Plex server, just set it up and provide media files and you can watch your library anywhere!

Before I start this review, I like both operating systems as I have an Apple TV (2015) and now this Nvidia Shield TV. I like both UI interfaces, but Nvidia wins in overall functionality as it has 4k streaming built in, the Apple TV doesn't. But I bought the Nvidia Shield while there was a sale when they gave away a free remote, so that's nice. Gaming is great if you have a rig that can stream your PC games to it, some latency, but that is to be expected as it streams off your internet. Games that run off of the system itself is smooth and no complains, there are some hiccups as freezing and such. But nothing to deter the overall great experience of this device. If you're pro-apple I would say go with the Apple TV box - but be warned it isn't future proofed and will not support 4K content. While this Nvidia box is all about choices, runs google apps, nvidia games, etc. It's an all in one box and can't complain.

This to me is by far the best android tv you can get for the price. You can stream tv content and video( hulu, WWE network, Netflix, KODI) and its great. You can also play android games on your tv with a controller that comes already in the box. They even have there own streaming app where for $8 a moth you can stream actually console games even though they may not be the most up to date games. You can also stream PC games but I don't do that . They updated to Android 6.0 so now you can by the lower spaced model and just put a SD card in there and you have more internal storage now.

Great little device. I stream all my movies from my nas using KODI without issues, haven't yet tried 4K yet. Loads of features and being able to play games off your PC is pretty cool as well. The only downside I'd say is the controller, wish Nvidia would make it so you can use an Xbox One wireless controller but hey they want to sell controllers as well so I get it from a company standpoint.
