Customer Ratings & Reviews

The AI 4k changes are great for content 720p and above. The remote improvements are also great. Everything else that made the shield tv a great unit are still there: game streaming from a PC, android TV apps, and solid performance on all I've used.

Amazing streaming device. Does it all powerful device, great for gaming and expanded storage ks a plus.

The NVIDIA SHIELD Android TV Pro has firmly established itself as the ultimate streaming media player, delivering an exceptional combination of power, versatility, and sheer entertainment value. As an avid consumer of digital content, I am genuinely astounded by the capabilities of this device. The SHIELD Android TV Pro's 4K HDR streaming prowess is nothing short of breathtaking. Whether I'm watching movies, TV shows, or playing games, the visuals are razor-sharp, vibrant, and incredibly lifelike. The level of detail and depth in 4K HDR content is truly mesmerizing, and the device handles it with grace, ensuring a truly immersive viewing experience. Setting up the SHIELD Android TV Pro was a breeze, and the user-friendly interface makes navigation and customization a breeze. The device integrates seamlessly with popular streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube, giving me instant access to a wealth of content. The NVIDIA SHIELD Android TV Pro is a true gem for home entertainment enthusiasts. Its 4K HDR streaming quality, powerful gaming capabilities, Google Assistant integration, and Plex Media Server functionality combine to create a comprehensive entertainment hub. For those who demand nothing but the best when it comes to streaming media players, the SHIELD Android TV Pro deserves its spot at the top.

The SHIELD is the best Android TV streaming box on the market. You get 4K streaming, Dolby Atmos, DTS-X surround sound, and 4K Chromecast support. Plus you can use it as a Plex media server to store and stream all your personal media. The SHIELD also can be used as a smart home hub for Google Assistant and/or Alexa. And if all this is not enough, The SHIELD also plays games, including Android games, PC titles, GeForce Now, and Google Stadia. And the best part: you can use the SHIELD to set up your own retro gaming console system, from the Atari 2600, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, Nintendo Entertainment System, Super NES, Sega Genesis, Neo Geo, Playstation, Sega Dreamast, N64, Gamecube, and Nintendo Wii. The SHIELD commands a premium price, but you get what you pay for.

I got one of these for Christmas, my daughter saw what and how it streams and then she bought one too.I have used Roku, Apple, other AndroidTV boxes, Firestick, this is by far the one. It can almost do anything I need, including games.

Get it! dont think about it just get it! Replaced my roku box and i havent looked back since. Watch some youtube videos to see just how much you can do with it. There are soo many things you can do with this that I cant even fit it all into this review.

This device is fast. Much quicker than any amazon device. Has a killer find my remote feature that I wish others had. Supports anything you can throw at it. Great selection of android apps. AI enhancement looks great. Just not sure if its $200 good.

Bought for my grandparents who find it very easy to use and when they can’t figure something out they just ask the remote to do it. And the picture quality is amazing along with the transition effect between actions are smoother. Very happy

Shield Pro is the only Plex player I have found to be able to stream (over internet) 4k content with little to no buffering, even when skipping around. The nvidia GeForce experience PC game streaming feature is quite incredible.

After looking for a very long time for a streamer that plays all of the main services in 4K with Atmos and being disappointed time and again after my purchases (Roku doesn't do Dolby Vision at all, Apple TV wont play uTube in 4K or Prime in Dolby Vision or offer Fandango at all and it converts Dolby Digital Plus to PCM losing some performance in the process, Tivo Stream 4K won't play Vudu or Fandango in 4K and plays HDR completely messed up). This unit comes as a breath of fresh air. It plays ALL apps in whatever formats they offer! ALL OF THEM! And the picture quality is the best of all the streamers I've tried too (including 4K bluray players from the likes of Sony and Samsung)! Even the sound is excellent! If you are okay with the Android platform, this is the best streamer on the market!

Is it becoming outdated? Yes. However, it remains a strong contender among home streaming devices. Although it operates on Android TV (Google's earlier version of TV experiences), it's still impressive. NVIDIA will continue to provide updates, with the latest in January 2025. Its wired networking capability gives it an advantage over other streaming devices, and its compatibility with Steam Link and XBOX cloud gaming is an added bonus for enthusiasts. In summary, it's a worthwhile choice for anyone who enjoys digital media and desires a device robust enough to manage just about anything.

Love thing thing so much! It's a beast of a streaming machine. A must have for Plex users. Haven't really taken advantage of the gaming but I'm sure it's great.

This device was really easy to set up. I'm no tech wiz, but I was watching an amazon prime movie in less than 20 minutes. This device is definitely fast enough for gamers.

If you stream anything then this is for you. It's a beast!

Amazing streaming quality and pretty fast compared to 4k firestick has alot of great functionality the GeForce now is a great add on they pretty much made this device simple to use and voice remote is a great added feature.

Love it. Bit pricey but if you're looking to set up a NAS and run thru Plex it's a no brainer. Lots of app options, love the remote form factor and that it lights up when you move it.

Excellent streaming box! Moved from an Apple TV 4K to this and definitely won’t look back. AI upscaling is fantastic and ease of use is great. Android TV is way more customizable and the ability to sideload apps is a huge plus.

Works great, its fast and my remote control from samsung works great with it ...pretty awsome device ...although im not a big time gamer , but i do like that you can play games as well...

Excellent streaming device. Loaded all apps quickly and is very user friendly.

Great resolution, easy to use and set up, plenty of apps to add, but the remote control's buttons are very sensitive. Just be careful how you lay it down.
