Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have always liked what Nvidia has done with their streaming devices and this one doesn't disappoint. I also own the 2015 500GB model. I pair this one with my Samsung S95B and it's an incredible combination. Definitely my favorite streaming device and would recommend this to friends and family, especially if you want the best of the best with continuous updates for years to come.

The Nvidia Shield TV is the best Plex client out there. I own the Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Stick 4K, Roku Ultra and they're not as good as the Nvidia Shield TV. The Roku comes very close, but the audio output through HDMI doesn't sound as clear and wide as the output from the Shield TV. Devices were plugged directly into receiver or soundbar to ensure a direct signal and the Shield always sounded the best. My only complaint is that there aren't many Network TV apps that support Android TV. If you watch anything on the Discovery Networks, too bad. You'll have to cast from your tablet, phone or web browser.

Great media player and supports all audio codecs for home theater. I hope nvidia makes a newer model soon.

Best 4K steamer. With A.I. upscaling if you're watching something in 1080p it will automatically upscale to 4K! Dolby Atmos, I can keep going!

Love this product- we now have 2! Setting up was easy and the ease of Using the product was even better. Faster than the previous one we had.

I've had a number of streaming devices, including an Apple TV, and this is hands down the best there is. Also, streaming sticks work well enough for their price, but this will save you a lot of time and frustration. You will have no more daily annoying problems (slowdowns, crashes, freezing, buffering issues, etc). This is worth the price. I would recommend buying this and using it for years opposed to buying a $30.00 to $50.00 streaming stick (that has small, but rather annoying issues) every year.

One of the best streaming device. Plenty of customizations.

Our old firestick became the slowest device ever, decided to replace it with this bad boy. And it has been going strong, apps open fast and it even has a feature to close apps at a tap of a button, no having to going into setting to force close again. Highly recommend

I would recommend this product to anyone with a 4K TV. The Ai upscaling is amazing. It takes standard Movies and upscales them to 4K like quality. The extra level of details is really something you have to see for yourself. The one SNAFu i had with unit was that it would not login to my Orbi Wifi network because i don't have different network names for 2.4g and 5g. Nvidia support was useless. I finally figured it out by changing the bandwidth from Auto to 5g and it connected.

This was an excellent solution to my streaming problems via PC/Plex. I have an other computer running Win10 and it just wouldn't play 4K HDR10 videos very well (File sizes over 60GB each) via Plex. The Shield Pro is exactly what I needed to be able to stream and AI Enhance all video content to 4K without any noticeable quality loss on my Samsung Q70R. Also I am able to game stream from my gaming PC to the TV with 0 ping via Cat6. I can play racing games and metroidvanina games with ease.

amazing! Best 4k streaming media player fast and with a lot of games to download. Very convenient to use it as a network sharing.

The new version is excellent with Dolby Vision on board with an excellent backlit remote. In addition AI up scaling is worth it.

15 stars. By far the best streamer out there. Very easy to use. Great quality picture. Upscaling is amazing. Buy it!

Just needed to install a custom loader, not because the provided loader doesn't work, it was more a personal preference The box is fast, and the AI picture enhancement works very well. I haven't tested Dolby Vision because of my TV does not support it, but Dolby Atmos works well I'm very happy with my purchase. I had 3 or 4 Android TV boxes in the past and this one is the best

This is the 3rd one we’ve purchased, Great for streaming. Easy to use. Connect to your Google Home and turn your tv on.

This is a HUGE step up from a Roku!!! Very easy to set up and use. Love the remote

Killer little guy. Way better sound produced than the built in streaming app on my vizio. This thing actually works how and when it's supposed to. Was expensive but I don't regret it at all

If you are looking for the best media player on the market, then look no further than the Nvidia Shield Pro. This media player pretty much checks every box from hardware to software. Two usb 3.0 ports that supported additional storage and several game controllers I had at my disposal and a gigabit ethernet cable which ran at the highest speed my connection allowed is already off to a good start but it doesn't stop there. The shield supports all the major streaming apps(netflix,hulu, and amazon) but this is not why you want an Nvidia shield so let's move on to the personal media. Using Kodi, a media player app, I was able to run DVD iso with the mpeg 2 codec and there were no visible loading times present. Next up, I tested Blu-ray rips with the mkv format using the H264 codec and the vc-1 codec and both ran with no issues. Of course the big test was 4K Ultra HD's using mkv format with H265(HEVC) and..you guessed it, playback is not an issue. Tie that into both DTS and Dolby support and top that off with a 4K ai upscaler that does an amazing job and you have the media player of your dreams. Even gaming is quite phenomenal on this hardware. The nvidia shield can emulate up to the 7th generation of games though you will find that performance struggles in games of the later generations. With that being said the shield still does a better job the any other media player I've tested. They also have the Geforce now streaming service which will let you play current gen games at 1080p 60fps depending on your internet connection. Though there were some frame timing issues and pretty noticeable lag the experience was far better than I expected. Overall the Nvidia shield is an amazing piece of hardware and no other media player I've tested has come close to what it offers. It may take years before we see another media player really contend with the shields accessibility so if you have the money to pick one up I suggest you do.

Super snappy and quality blows everything else out of the water. Can upgrade space using adoptable storage. Amazing hands down.

If you are serious about your entertainment center, this is the #1 choice currently. I am using this with a BenqTK800M projector and I am very happy with it. The AI up-scaling still shocks me every time I watch a lower quality film. There is not a single file this shield cannot direct play over my network. They also hit a home run with the remote. Feels great in your hand with gentle backlighting when it senses movement. Really feels premium. This is the one to buy, if it's not sold out.
