    Too old at this point, AI upscale creates artifact

    While this device was revilutionary on its release it is now sadly overshadowed bu the newer FireTV Cube. While it’s interface is infinitely better, what matters most is how the content is displayed. The new Cube has a cleaner upscale than the shield. If/when Nvidia wants to release an up-to-date shield I’m sure that will again be king. For now, save $100 and get the superior product.

    Much better than a firestick. UI is intuitive. Only downside is the triangular remote.

    This product does exactly what it is supposed to do and more. Large 4K movies that I store in digital format don’t even cause a hiccup. I brought two of these and will buy another

    Total game changer for cord cutting. Best feature is its interface with Plex. It play my movie collection off my HD beautifully on my main TV and around the house. Love it!

    I've been using Apple TV for many years. But one thing apple doesn't have is HDD support. I decided to get this and I love it! By installing Kodi and then using an external hard drive, I can see all my movie files. The only thing I don't like is that some external hard drives stay after powering down. So you would have to unplug and replug the hard drive pending on the size of the drive. Other than that, I love it.

    Better than most streaming devices and rivals Apple 4K with its ability to upscale 1080p content to 4K. I definitely recommend watching LinusTech's breakdown as well.

    The shield streamer is a great product! My experience with this is way different from Roku. Roku has an app I would like that the shield doesn't support. Also the shield started to act up way sooner. It's more costly than others. Would recommend but get the two year geek squad protection.
