Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is hands down the best streaming box on the market. All major streaming services work on it flawlessly and it also does cloud gaming and regular gaming. I also use it to run emulators and it does a great job. I love it so much i bought another one.

I can't think of enough words to describe this little piece of tech. I've had for about a month now and I absolutely love it. There's nothing else that performs as well as the Shield TV Pro. I can really replace many things around the house. Some of the things that I've already started using on it, has been Plex Media Server, Gaming, and of course streaming. Don't let other streaming devices fool you. This product is worth every penny and it's future proof unlike my Fire TV Cube. Also, the device just works. I have another Plex Media Server and I take advantage of the full Gigabit unlike more FireTV cube. Oh and... the remote lights up when you pick it up and you can use Alexa to find it as well.

The upscaling got my attention, Plex capability set the hook! Day 2 using it, blown away at the quality. I travel a lot for business and recreation, so I can throw this Nvidia box in a suitcase and connect to any tv wherever I go, or in the RV, and have my whole entertainment library with me. As there should always be some room for improvement, I am a bit irritated that Nvidia is too cheap to spend a couple nickels on the plastic and include the stand shown in the item pics, but no, apparently that's an added purchase. Seems a bit tacky to be so petty after charging $200 (for an otherwise bargain device). I am confident that many of my friends will be buying these after they see what the are capable of!

The shield is overall good value only complaint is 16gb of internal memory which can easily resolved with a external hard drive

This is great for loading apps for streaming TV shows. It is very fast and easy to set up. This is my second Nvidia shield, I have the 2 older models and they are still working great.

Nice update to the remote. This is my second unit for my other TV, but I have to say this is a power horse much faster than the apple 4k tv unit or any of the other similar units like amazon fire tv, roku, etc...I have tried tham all and this unit is the best amonth them and can handle 4k videos without a hitch!

This is hands down the best home entertainment device I own. To be able to play anything I throw at it is amazing. I use it for my lossless 4K remuxes, old school gaming and streaming games from my PC.

I have used quite a few different streaming devices in the past and I can say for certain that this one is the best. I feel as though this device has more options as to what you can do with it in terms of streaming, gaming, and even casting from other devices.

Buy the Nvidia Shield!!! No need to get into all the specs. Here's why..... NVIDIA shields has licenses!!!! I can watch Dolby Atmos/Vision on Disney+, Netflix, HBO Max, VUDU and Movies Anywhere. Android Tv cant get you Disney+ or Vudu. Not to mention quality technical support from Nvidia for years to come. I love my Hisense U8g Android tv because it also recognizes Amazon HDR10+ content The shield is faster than the native apps and it it has Bluetooth remote so you don't have to be pointing right at the device. It customizes very nicely on the home screen. I'm not extremely technical but I was even able to find a free app that would display my security cameras on the tv if I wanted to take a quick look on the shield. This thing works and I'm sure it does miracles for gamers but I can speak to that. For the average consumer wondering if the shield pro is worth it, ABSOLUTELY!!!

The nvidia shield TV does everything you need from a media streamer. It upscales content very well. It's fast and has access to the google.play store for all the apps you need. Nvidia provide's updates and adds new features. It's over powered for what it does but it will last for years.

I recieved this to replace my streaming stick and I have to say the fact that you can play games, watch all streaming services, as well as additional services. I would recommend getting a hard drive for it if you are using it with any storage heavy solutions (games, movies, etc...)

Originalky I had the chromecast 4k. this is leagues above it and does a great job handling all of my streaming formats

plays everything! with no issues, plus the built in plex server. best for 4k HDR or DV.

Ive had firetv stick and firetv box and the nvidia shield out does them both not even close. Faster speeds, faster uploads and downloads. Navigating thru screens in a breeze and just the ease of using it has been incredible. I just wish i had bought it sooner

Shield is fantastic!! I have it playing 4K content and it looks beautiful. All kinds of apps you can add to make it your own. Only thing I dont like is the main page, lots of ads.

This is an interesting device. On one hand it is expensive and hasn't been overly upgraded in years. On the other, there is nothing in it's class. If you want a media player, you can't do better. This is quite a powerful little box here and let me be clear on something, I see lots of un-official 3rd party Android TV boxes online but I couldn't take a chance using them because I don't know how stable they are so I spent the extra money for the shield to be sure I have full support and compatibility. Ive purchase a couple of those boxes and my overall experience was negative. Not with this Nvidia shield. The Nvidia comes with the updated CPU, the Nvidia Tegra X1 chip that’s 25 percent faster, 16GB of internal storage and 3GB RAM.You are getting a device that can stream in 4K HDR, with both Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio decoding. Overall, great device.

This is an insanely fast and powerful device. I would consider this the Rolls Royce of streaming devices. It has plenty of storage and the power to be a Plex media server. The layout and expansion options are excellent and so is the customer service. NVidia did this one right!

Love this for allmour streaming needs. Great addition to any tv. Apps seem to work better on this than my smart tv.

Works great! I have it connected to a Marantz Cinema 40 and a JVC projector on a 120” screen and it looks and sounds perfect.

I was interested in buying a shield since the first model but I still think it's too expensive compared to similar products on the market, even though it's still the best android tv box. For being a 2019 product, it can't handle Asphalt 9, a several years old Android game, that make me realize that it's performance is not as good as it is announced if I compare it with the ultra low price moto e 2020 that I got for 60 bucks that I'd able to run the aforementioned game. The other drawback specially for shield tv core model is the excessively low storage, 8 GB total, that can be upgraded with a micro sd as internal storage but then you lose the external storage option to play with emulators and media easily. Also the 16 GB of storage of the 'pro' model is not a substantial improvement but the 2 usb ports allow you to increase both internal and external storage. For the positive side of the product the AI upscaling is incredible and make your old nineties series look great on 4k upscaling. Also emulation works perfectly up to Sega dreamcast. My advice, if you really like to play with android devices you're going to have a good time with the shield but don't expect a good performance device with 2019 standards. Spend the extra 50 for the pro model if you don't want to be greatly disappointed.
