    Not that sure about this yet. It was pricey and I don't see difference from the Firestick which is much cheaper and they do the same thing. Maybe I'm missing something. It appears to be good. Im curious about your thought if you have one.

    absolutely the best streaming device on the market. Upscales to 4k resolution without any hitches. Plenty enough ram and storage memory for apps. Best perks are the ability to create a server as well as use the shield as a smart home hub. Especially the best on the market.

    Tested streaming against other dedicated products, noticed Netflix gave 200 mbps download speed versus 50 and 18 on my other two devices. Paired a couple of Xbox wireless controllers with good streaming from my PC with RTX GPU.

    Best Android Tv Box Ever!

    Best android tv device you can purchase. I love the AI upscale feature this thing has. You can notice the difference. Aside from regular streaming apps it's an emulation machine if you know what you're doing. This is all you will ever need for multimedia.

    I went with the pro because it has 64-bit Android OS. Primarily use it for streaming movies on my NAS. VLC is the choice for that as the codecs are good for everything. Only negative is that it does not support DRM when watching live TV my HDHomerun with FIOS service. Two thumbs up!!

    Fast But Buggy

    It's faster than my smart TV OS but buggy as hell. I'm hoping a software update will fix the bugs. And the 3 sided remote is a cool idea but it's terrible, always rolling off the arm of my recliner, it's backlit though so that's pretty helpful.

    Overpriced for the average user...

    I had the previous gen Shield Pro and eventually sold it and decided to give this one a shot since it now supports 4k. About 3 days after I got it I the now infamous Google TV firmware update happened and of course changed the whole interface changed. The whole reason I got it was for the streamlined android tv UI. Quickly returned it...eventually just got a chromecast. Same UI and about $150 cheaper. If you're not planning on installing gaming apps, emulators, and anything other than basic streaming apps it's not worth the money in my opinion.

    Very great product, I have been waiting for more than a year to purchase this product and it's amazing. I hooked it up to my home theater surround sound and the sound is awesome, the video is crisp and nice, better than fire stick and has more storage space.
