Customer Ratings & Reviews

I know its dated hardware but the ai upscaling is still the best for 1080p videos.

I love this thing, but I'm not sure it's worth the price outside of a couple specific use cases. I bought it primarily to serve as a Plex server. It wasn't super simple to set up with a shared external drive, and I did have to do a few uninstalls/reinstalls of PMC early on, but between Nvidia, Google and Plex the kinks seem to be fully worked out and I'm left with an always-on, low power Plex server that can comfortably serve up a couple streams at a time. Google TV as a platform is ... fine. The layout is cluttered by ads and the "assistant" tends to get in the way more often than not, but it's become the best option for the most access to apps/streaming services. If you're not running a Plex server and have no interest in games on this thing (which I haven't looked into at all, but presumably they're ... something?), you're probably better off with any number of cheaper options, your gaming console, or even just using whatever your TV came with.

Although Nvidia Shield has not updated this device since 2019, it is still the best streaming machine in the 2023 market. The Amazon Sticks or Cube with all its upadates does not even come close to the Shield; and all those other expensive sreaming devices are all junk. So, if you're looking for streaming device that still supported by its company through firmware updates and great Customer Service, Nvidia Shield is the one for you.

Easier to use than the last version. I've used ROKU for years and years, but I really like this version. PLUS ... you can get Peacock and HBO Max on this device and NOT on ROKU.

Nvideo shield is a fantastic streaming box. It is well worth the money. No problems to worry with. It is reliable and easy to use. Nvideo Shield has been well worth the money.

Honestly, I thought I'd be more wowed by this. I mainly use for streaming and it doesn't really do anything that much better than the other Android/Google streamers. The remote is nice with the motion activated back lights though.

Although pricey it is well worth the money. The processor in this Shield Pro is super fast for streaming apps. This device has already practically paid for itself as I dumped cable TV and went to a streaming TV service.

I have four of these boxes and they are amazing. Best streaming box on the market. Definitely would recommend this product.

The best of the best. A great high-end device. It comes with AI intelligence to upscale non 4k content. It has GForce graphics. It's easy to set up. All you need to do is to connect power source to outlet and quick east set up. It has a build in web to access apps. It is pricier but way better than a Firestick which does not have straight wired connections nor a web engine browser.

The device itself is very cool, works well, easy to setup, works in harmony with my Smart TV, and has a lot of value to me. However, I would not buy this from Best Buy, as they always, always have some kind of issue with their website, with their delivery, with their support, or whatever it is. Go elsewhere for your devices.

I've been using this device for a little bit and it still going strong. I must say it's a great Android TV, media server, and game and video streaming device. The current best out there!!

I have had one of these in my living room for a few years now. I needed something for my basement for a while. I did not have second thoughts about what that streaming box would be. This is it! It is not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

I've had this shield tv for a month now and I'm very pleased what the shield tv brings to the table in terms of performance, entertainment, basically everything. This shield tv is pretty much the only streaming device you'll ever need

This Nvidia Shield TV Pro blows Roku Ultra away. I love the highly functional, and customizable main menu, and the speed of operation. Also, people can't believe the picture's 4k look is from the built-in AI upscaler.

This was a huge upgrade from the firesticks. It runs my setup flawless and runs my TV programs effortlessly.

This is nothing but Best, I am using in theater room for media center for Netflix, amazon prime, you tube and Chromecast too and more app super fast and excellent quality , perfect for theater room main media

The only Android streamer for the advanced users. Premium product for premium users.

very good quality streaming device, I would recommend the purchase of this media player. With many nice features, extra storage using a thumb drive. So many other great features, try it you'll enjoy it.!

Bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! He’s wanted it for a while but won’t spend the money on himself. Since we’ve been using this our movies and shows don’t buffer anymore. We have the fastest internet service Spectrum offers but we also have tons of devices having 5 kids and with Amazon Firesticks our movies and shows would buffer even if only for a few seconds. We can’t see ourselves ever going back to using a Firestick after using the Shield. My husband had it set up and going in less than an hour and it’s not tech savvy at all! It’s worth the money! Trust me you’ll thank me later!

It's awesome and has almost no lag even over my wifi. If you don't game as much I recommend a google tv as it has almost the same function, but at a lower price.
