Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best player on the market right now. I would give it a very slight edge over my apple tv 4k due to the AI upscaler. Blazing fast performance and it makes any 1080p content look 4k and even improves on 480p content. The only slight drawback is the lack of apple tv plus app support.

Best choice for having all of your streaming applications in one place. I am also able to stream my Cloud PC via this device and it works very well. Lots of memory, no lag and 100% satisficed with this purchase.

GREAT product! Perfect for the Hey Google or Alexa user alike. LOVE the Plex Media Server compatability and integration, and the processor is absolutely amazingly fast and responsive. Don't let the size of the hardware in the picture deter you, it is actually quite small and concealable about the size of a small notebook.

For people that stream or game. This device is the very best on the market n does everything with the greatest at ease. I have bought multiple n everyone enjoy it as well.

Absolutely great product . So much better than previous version of shield tv. My biggest cliche with the previous version was the remote , that will sleep all the time. This one not only had a good sturdy remote but also the picture and sound quality - absolutely top class . Highly recommend !!!

The Nvidia Shield has been known since 2015 for providing these boxes. I bought the Pro version and am very happy with it.

Easy to set up. Great device to move away from traditional cable.

Hours is full of firesticks. This device is capable of doing everything a firestick would do but it just feels faster.

I love that it allows me to stream games from my PC. AI upscaler works wonders for 1080p content. I knock a star for being so expensive.

This box is great. Lightning fast, excellent picture quality. Definitely worth the money compared to lower cost devices.

Very fast, easy to set up. Streams an almost picture perfect video to your tv. Make sure you have 4k hdmi cables, makes a difference. Icons are set up nicely and can be moved around easily. Great purchase if you're looking for the highest quality android streaming box

My household really enjoys this product since out smart TV is getting older. Our tv used to crash and freeze because it couldn’t process all of the running applications but the Shield solved that problem. You can do a lot on this even play games. Highly recommended and worth the money.

This is a versatile android box... whether using it for games or watching your favorite movie or TV show, you can't go wrong with this purchase. This device has been going strong for years & should be anyones goto Android box!

This is the top end of streaming players available. Streams 4K HDR content with Atmos sound with ease. Can setup as a plex server, can play cyberpunk 2077 on this thing via GeForce NOW much better than any current gen console. What's not to like about this this Media Player?

I have had many streaming boxes and this is by far the best and it was a awesome deal from Best Buy they always have sales going on

I was really excited to get this box. I didn't even know about these boxes till a month ago. I did my research and decided on getting the best one on the market as far as specs are concerned. Man, now i know better. What they don't tell you is that now google and nvidia throw nonstop ads through this thing at you in the form of paid advertisers.....WHY did they change 6yrs of not advertising? Seems like most of the apps that were available are gone from the store. Web browsers got removed. Took 2 days to get the thing onto my home network (nvidia's customer service was nice to help....in a way. By directing me to a forum page that didnt help). Write speeds are horrible too. I wanted to move my digital library onto the adopted external storage but google and nvidia have not made this box user friendly in that manner. Now all that said it does have some pros: 4k upscaling, streaming services open immediately, streams fast, i have no interest in a plex server but i see the advantages though, and it takes up no room at all. Remote is nice (had to disable voice assistant and mute mic but that doesnt bother me). Would i buy again? Same model and same issues and same hardware? No. Seems like they are trying to force us to a cloud only media center. Not when google keeps removing paid apps with impunity, who knows when it will disappear from your library? Very unpleasant experience with this box.

I purchased this specifically for the steam link capabilities and was not disappointed. this perfectly handles 4k90fps streaming through steam link

Hands down best streaming device out there. Full Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision support. Plenty of ram to run all apps with out any issues.

This shield does it all! It is a powerful device that also works as a Plex server. With full android operating system and constant updates from Nvidia it is simply a must have addition to anyone’s home entertainment system. Features like Dolby atmos and AI upscale give it a great sound and picture.

Excellent additional resource for the older TVs. Plus you can preload so much on it.
