    worse than Apple TV in all but 2 ways still good

    I have both shield pro and Apple TV 4K 2021. The shield is only better than the Apple TV 4K in 2 ways: 1) it can play 4k blu-ray demuxes perfectly via plex. AppleTV can play them, but sacrifices either Atmos or dolby vision. 2) the AI upscaling is pretty cool on the shield. But I enjoy using the Apple TV much more - not bombarded by ads, and I also find the shield to be somewhat buggy, sometimes I need to reboot it, sometimes it gets caught in a cec loop where it keeps turning on all my devices, etc.

    I was hesitant to purchase this product but now I regret not buying it sooner. The picture quality is AMAZING and my streaming is flawless. Better than Apple TV.

    This is probably the only device (besides the Steam link) that lets you stream your PC games to your TV. But it is also expensive, almost the price of an XBOX series S. I think if the price was lower it would totally be worth it. The software and response in this device is top notch though.

    I went from multiple firesticks to the Chromecast with Google TV and i was never quite satisfied with the performance. So i got the shield tv pro and it's been amazing. Few downsides, hdmi CEC link keeps dropping and i have to restart the entire setup (shield-Avr-Tv) only 16bit audio with Amazon music and no hdr on YouTube due to not supporting vp9 codec.

    The best little android box you can find. It's faster than anything I have dealt with (fire sticks, chrome cast, Chinese android boxes, etc...) and it has a new interface which just released which is nicer than before but even the older UI was nice... It's a great product for the modern home / if you've cut cable this is the box for you to help integrate all of your streaming services.

    This is a fantastic upgrade from the original. The remote is much harder to lose - the light up when touched is a great feature. I was skeptical of the triangle shape but I prefer it to the traditional flat remotes. There are a bunch of features I haven't delved into yet but this was the missing piece to get my soundbar working again. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to enhance their TV.

    Of course there are 100's of streaming devices out there all claiming to be the best and have the most features arranging prices from 50 to over 300 so how do you know what to choose? Easy get this one its fast, loaded with your favorite apps and you can play nvidia games to boot if you add a controller. It really is the only one you will ever need. One con I can think of it doesn't make it easy to download and install 3rd party apps.

    The reason I got this was to play my PC library on my TV since consoles are so hard to get a hold of, and this tiny little box does the job perfectly! Beautiful AI upscaling tech, and with Android TV as its OS, I have more options than just my Steam library. Overall, great purchase. If you are looking for a console alternative, you are looking at the best.
