    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.

    The best 4k video companion

    A must have if you have a 4k TV. With streaming services having so many titles to choose from there is a surprising lack of 4k content, but this can help fill that gap with its upscaling capability. Not the biggest fan of nvidia as a company, but you just can’t deny that they are the leader in graphics and AI right now. On top of the excellent picture, it’s also just miles beyond everything else performance wise. No more lagging and glitching TV interfaces.

    NVIDIA - SHIELD Android TV Pro is amazing, swift, and easy to setup. The remote controller is very nice and easy to navigate, the remote control also has a backlight, and it senses when you pick it up then turns on the light.

    Best Streaming Device Out There - PLUS RETRO GAMES

    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.

    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.

    Best Android streamer on the market!

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Still the best TV box on the market.

    I've had my Shield for almost 3 years and it's still running fairly well. The hardware is definitely starting to show its age, but it's still the obvious top contender when it comes to Android TV boxes. On top of all my streaming apps, I have mine set up with RetroArch for retro gaming and it emulates games well up to the PS1 era. That on top of being able to sideload makes this an obvious choice for people serious about a quality streaming box experience. I wish they hadn't added ads to the home screen, but it doesn't make me recommend another box over this one.

    I love this thing! I've had different versions of prime fire devices, top end Roku's (which i still use and like). But this one is the most responsive and looks better, to me!

    Great streaming box? There's nothing better than the Nvidia Shield Pro. It does it all. Bought myself a 4 TB external hard drive and instantly expanded the internal storage. This is the best streaming device out there folks!

    Outstanding product . This thing never skips a beat. Its snappy and fast in pretty much every way. If you have an Nvidia GPU with Nvidia experience, you are able to stream games from your PC to another room. I tested a number of peripherals; xbox one s bluetooth controller, wireless keyboard and mouse, external ssd, flash drives , you name it . It handles anything you throw at it expertly. The only thing I really have to complain about is the remote. The triangular design is comfortable but also annoying at the same time. And I wish the dedicated Netflix button did not exist. Not only is it unnecessary but, its large , overly sensitive and in the worst place possible. I can't tell you how many times I mistakenly breathe on it and suddenly my program is interrupted by Netflix' splash screen.
