    Super easy to use! Been a muli-year firestick user and had no problem transitioning over. The AI upscaling helps with our projector since we have a large room and our screen is larger than the recommended size (120 in to our 200 inch screen)

    I have my external hard drive connected to it and use it just for a plex server. When I'm away from home I can watch anything I have stored. It's a really great device and it is very powerful.

    I bought this as an upgrade to my previous streaming box and this thing does not disappoint. It's very snappy and fast, the UI is the best I've seen on Android TV and the picture quality is amazing. The remote lights up and you can change the backlight level!!!!! This thing is worth every penny and I love using it!!

    Excellent box, bad remote

    I bought Nvidia to replace the Amazon Fire TV 2nd gen. It is much faster in performance. The picture quality is much better. I like it better than the Amazon Fire TV. It is as expensive as the Apple TV but more versatile. It allows you to use 3rd party apps. When running Youtube, occasionally the screen starts to flicker, goes blank and the Nvidia crashes and then reboots itself. This is a glitch and has happened a few times. I hope the Nvidia makers are aware of this and can fix it. I took a star away from the Nvidia rating because of its remote and price. The remote is sleek but is dysfunctional and hopefully be improved in the future. The remote has a big red Netflix button at the bottom. I find that button annoying and useless. I never use it to launch the Netflix anyway. It is so sensitive that even a brush of a feather will launch the Netflix app in the middle of something I am watching like a Prime video or Youtube, suddenly the Netflix gets launched and would not let me get out of it by pressing the return button. The other thing is that the rewind and forward buttons are below and above the play/pause button instead of being side by side. I have to fumble with them to get them right. In this price range, this should have been better. Overall, I like the Nvidia.

    Overall a great device that is way better than what you usually get from smart TVs. The storage a little limited though so that is something to think about.

    Great Media player, but come on Nvidia...

    Great media player! Very quick and responsive. Lots of options for playback as it's essentially a google TV with an NVIDIA processor. Can even upconvert lower resolutions to 4k for a slightly better picture. Two USB ports are nice for those who plug in media. I do wish it had a second HDMI port(one for sending audio to receiver, one to send video to the TV, for those who have older receivers. I don't use this to its full potential as we don't play video games, but there are some pretty cool things you could do in that direction as well. Biggest annoyance, and only reason for taking off a star is that it doesn't come with a stand! A $200 media player, especially with the stand pictured in product photos and Nvidia doesn't include it, wants another $30 for a piece of plastic.. If you buy this, plus the stand and the game controller - it becomes a nearly $300 unit... Just a bit over the top when you know Nvidia is making these for pennies on the dollar!

    Been using this for a week now, WAY better than a Roku. It's much snappier and integrates with my Android ecosystem. Roku has nothing on the Shield Pro. I'd recommend getting this to level up your TV streaming experience.

    Great product and amazing processor. If your really enjoy gaming the Nvidia Shield is the only choice for streaming hardware. I only returned for Roku Ultra HD because Spectrum TV App not available and I prefer not to side load apps. Otherwise a very excellent product.

    As I frequently use a Roku, I wanted to give this device of try as I had heard about how beefy and fast it can be. It is definitely more powerful than a typical streaming device. I have had some issues with apps themselves. But I am not sure how that relates to this device. I continue to use a Roku on some TVs. Looking forward to testing how this works with 4K

    The most versatile media player w/upscaling!

    We've used the NVidia Shield TV Pro for approximately a year now and conclude this is the best streaming player we've ever used. The upscaling feature is awesome - it works and really helps increases clarity. You can really see a major difference! Did I mention that it extremely versatile - we can stream using virtually any streaming service available, or we can plug in a USB or connect to our Plex Media to stream our library of videos. And to top it off, it has access to play many of todays popular games! This really is the best streaming device available today, and even at it's higher price point, worth every penny for what you get.

    This thing is the centerpiece of my home entertainment system. Powerful and handles my 4K content easily. Love the new remote, so much better than the older one. Love remote finder so when my kids misplace it I can find it. This thing packs a punch.

    bought this so i could get the most out of my movies (HDR, surround, etc). It works great for that... but the software is sometimes slow and the wifi antenna on it is horrid. Apps tend to close/restart randomly while you're using it. The remote is also the worst design I have ever experienced in my life. The shape makes no sense, it doesn't fit well in your hand, and the material is slippery so even if you could get a decent grip, it slides right out. The shape also makes it difficult to accurately hit buttons on the remote if it's resting on the table. Seriously, who green lit this design? Honestly for the average streamer, you might get the same benefits with just a simple 4k firestick.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I was hesitant to change from my Amazon Fire Stick to this Shield Pro. I've had apple TV and Amazon Fire stick, but none have worked as well as this Shield Pro. Streaming all day, playing music, and sometimes even playing games.
