    Everytime I heard how good Nvidia Shield TV is, now that I have it I can tell yes such a little device is so powerful, I have Plex server in local and another in remote location, it is the best Plex experience, image is so good no need to transcode. Also its menu work very fast even when you have many things open.

    The new remote makes the entire device worth it. I love this device! It's a nice upgrade over the previous generation that I used for many years. Nvidia is committed to support and upgrades too. The previous gen (2017) is still getting regular updates./

    If you are trying to Cut the Cable Cord. This is the absolute Best device to have! Just put it in Your Cart right now. You won't regret it! I'm so glad after several Android Boxes and different Generations of Firesticks? I could have saved a bundle by using the NVIDIA Shield to start with! Just Buy It!

    Total game changer for me. I've been using Android based steaming devices for over a decade now and just made the switch to the Shield Pro on a whim. I had a new android streaming device on the way, and when it got here, I sent it right back unopened. Best purchase in a long time for me.

    This thing is not for everyone. I bought it for the Plex Server and the AI upscaling. The AI upscale is basically an over sharpen filter (just max out the sharpness on your tv and it comes close) its seriously not that great. However the Plex Server is bananas! It does GPU encoding, multi stream (for the fam) and the overall speed is great. Most people that do not need Plex would be better served with a Google TV. The controller although good lack and input button so I STILL have to have the TV remote to switch inputs (for the price this seems to be a MAJOR oversight) The other INSANE letdown is Game streaming (THE ONE THING THIS SHOULD DO FLAWLESSLY) It is very hit or miss. I ended up installing moonlight (funny that a third party uses nvidia tech better than nvidia) In other words unless you need a plex server pass on this device.

    Overkill for just a TV streaming box since it's designed to stream GeForce Now games, but that also makes it the best TV streaming option. Zero lag in menus, everything boots quickly, and streaming starts right away.

    I bought this to do 4K streaming with Netflix, etc. but it can do so much more. It comes ready to run a Plex server out of the box, and it can even act as a NAS with an attached external drive. I have been impressed at how long Nvidia has continued to support add new powerful feature to the Shield TV.

    The Nvidia Shield with Android TV is the best streaming device available. The Google play store limits your apps but there are plenty of ways to get any app that you want. It is also great for game emulators and GeForce now. You can pair with a PS5 or Xbox controller. I got it on sale too.

    This was one of the first stores I had been in since Covid 19 started. I was impressed by the attention to cleanliness and social distancing policies BB had implemented. My transaction was easy and I was out in a short time. I really liked my sales consultant. He took great care of us. Thank you!
