I bought this device in 2024 to begin with and I believe this model has not been updated since 2019 and unfortunately it shows it's dated. I was having issues streaming and stuttering and looking online feels like a lot of people have issues with. Also no reason for this price in 2024 for a 2019 model...if it was cheaper I kind would understand...but for this price feels like better options out there if your usage is mainly streaming

Best streaming device you can buy. 4k upscaling is wonderful apps are great. the remote that comes with is it awesome. dont buy the tube version just spend the extra 50$ on this one. This one uses a 64 bit OS so you can do emulation and use other apps tons better.

Bought it for Plex usage which, seems to be a love/hate.. It can handle any format I throw at it but, the app itself is quirky. I'm hoping some of this gets ironed out with time as I love that it can handle any media type I throw at it.

Works great. This is the second Nvidia shield I have bought. We enjoy the other one and it has all of the features we need, so I bought a second one to use in our family room. It’s processing speed helps resolve lag issues with streaming services played directly from the TV.

This is the best android tv device for anyone interested in having a streaming device with gaming capabilities. The interface is somewhat clunky compared to the more refined interfaces like the fire stick and roku... But I'm ok with some tweaking. You'll enjoy this one.

One of the most functional and powerful streaming devices on the market. User interface is simple and easy to use. I bought this primarily to install KODI to organize my video library. My only wish for this product is to install AppleTV. Otherwise this is a great buy.

The Nvidia shield are definitely the best devices in the market, I have tried several other that claimed to be the best but they don't come even close to this one. I have three of these devices in my home and I love it, once you get the new google tv UI it’s even better.

The hardware is more than adequate for streaming services. This device should have a long life expectancy for delivering quality entertainment for at least 3 - 5 years, depending on your personal use case.

It's a solid product. Had a few minor issues crop up occasionally, where the menu of the device would be an entirely green screen. Turning the device on and off solved the issue though, so it isn't the end of the world.

Great console to game on. It seems to freeze up sometimes. You can add extra internal storage to it so it being 16GB isn't so bad. I have a Plex server running so I can listen to my music on the go without having to pay for a streaming service. It's a true media server when set up right.

Great product for our usage. The gaming portion of this doesn't fit our interests/needs, which is mildly disappointing but overall still happy with it for everything else! No issues with durability or the consistent use it's put through in my home.
