    This is a great streaming device I've had two other brands in the past five years and this is far superior. This is especially true of its image quality it is at least two times better then the other two brands that I had previously. it was a little tricky to set up until I found out the batteries were dead in the hand controller once I replace these it only took 5 minutes to set it up. Would highly recommend this

    Great product. If you are looking for a top of the line streaming device, this is it. Itnis also a great starter for folk looking to get into running a plex server. The geforce now gaming is great if you have fast internet.

    This is works great as a streaming box, I have not played games on it because I don't buy steam games or other online gaming services, but I am sure it would work great for those as well because that is partly what it is designed for. You can also download many apps and use an external drive for video files, which is something many streaming drives don't have the capability to do.

    This is the newest version of the Shield that has upscaling and a voice remote. It's great as a media player or for streaming games.

    Initially my experience was horrible until i updated it then it was ok. The UI was decent and I don't cloud game but thats probably the only good thing about the shield. The AI upscailing could be a lot better. The device is nearly a decade old and if they made a brand new unit im sure it'd be a 10/10. The current Apple Tv stream device is way better and its cheaper and im not even a apple guy.

    I’ve been disappointed with the built in apps on my game consoles and my TV, so I purchased this. So far it hasn’t disappointed. It also allowed me to do direct HDMI pass through with Plex, which most media players can’t do (I believe AppleTV is the only other one that can). The only thing lacking is HDR in the YouTube app, but there’s always hope for future updates. One thing that was curious, the gaming on this (GeForce now) was heavily promoted and all over the main screen, but it appears to only be available in beta and can’t be purchased. I requested a beta invitation and never heard anything back, so it doesn’t seem right that this is promoted like it is. Otherwise, totally satisfied.
