    Fire TV killer

    I love my shield pro. It is (for now) the only streaming device I recommend. Unless you want to utilize AirPlay then you get an Apple TV. But for all my streaming needs I now just use this. I stopped using my Fire TV products. They were always so slow.

    Love the shield, way better than the apple TV imo. Have been using the shields for the past few years. The price is pretty high for how long it's been around though

    Awesome device! So easy to use. The remote is sleek, simple, and feels good. Powerful enough for all of my needs.

    Smart TVs suck, get a streaming box

    I recently bought a 4K Samsung smart TV, and while I was generally satisfied with the picture quality, there were some performance issues with certain apps. I wanted a machine that could, at a minimum, process Netflix 4K shows and movies without artifacts, but I was also interested in streaming games from my PC to my TV. For this purpose, the Shield Pro was the device I settled on. While Android TV has some quirks compared to Samsung's Tizen OS, I feel that the positives greatly outweigh any issues I've had with it.

    Great Nvidia Shield Pro

    Not to much of an upgrade to the previous Nvidia, It's slightly faster then the previous one. The best part of the pro is the remote much better that the other one, It has a off button plus a better volume control and a shortcut to Netflix button.

    Fantastic streamer. I like this streamer better than my Roku box and the backlit remote is useful and lights up when you pick it up. Roku take note!

    Very happy with this purchase. Just the processor alone is worth it. I've a 85 inch Sony, about 3 or 4 years old and could maintain a strong stream. Plus I had 1 gig up and 1 gig down fiber. The Shield put all of it to bed. No more lag or stuttering. Worth every penny.

    I also have the 500GB Pro model from before & it’s only slightly better in my opinion. The upconversion feature works but anything less than 720p gets massive grain so not worth it on that content my Panasonic 4K player blows this away in that department in fact Amazon, Netflix & Youtube content i all watch on the player instead. If you don’t have a shield at all I do highly recommend this for its streaming potential & the fact it supports Dolby Vision the main reason I upgraded. There is supposed to be a better processor in this one but I don’t see any difference between the 2 devices.

    KING of all media players!

    The KING of all media players is back. If you have a previous generation of Shield, this is likely not worth upgrading to, however I needed a second Shield, and this thing is AWESOME! The best media player there is hands down. Nothing handles video formats like the SHIELD, and the Shield PRO even has new tech to upscale your SD content. If you have a 4K HDR screen, and want the most flexible, and dependable player, look no further. KODI runs LIKE A CHAMP, HDR video files, all surround sound formats, awesome!!

    This thing is fast. I love the AI upscaling as well. It's much better than I expected. The interface is easy to use and Google Assistant built in is great. The remote, although an improvement over last generations Shield TV, still leaves a lot of room for improvement. The Netflix button should be programmable, along with a couple more programmable buttons. That's really know only nag. The price is a bit high, but if you want the best streaming box out there, this is probably it.
