    I dont understand why I waited so long. This thing made the whole streaming experience extremely good. Everything sounded so good. The TV shows that were not so good sounding on fire tv suddenly sounded so amazing in SHEILD tv. This is a must for those who stream a lot of tv shows and movies.

    I'd give it a 5 Star if it wasn't so dang expensive! But man, oh, man is it a solid device! Loaded Kodi for my home theater. This device is sooo much better than the competition and fast, too.

    I picked up the Shield primarily because the MLB.TV was not working at all on my Fire Stick. I know there's a big price difference between the two, but the Shield has terrific features and functionality, the MLB.TV app works perfectly, and it has allowed me to venture into gaming via GeForce Now. If you're on the fence - just get it. Thank me later

    I am super impressed with what NVIDIA had made, it is super and I am in totally in love with this product. I have tried all gens of Nvidia and they rock. AI is awesome, it makes a lot of difference on 75" inches TV. I own both pro and the base model. I would recommend buying Pro model, it comes with USB A port, you could connect external storage devices and also we cams. Google duo will be made available on Android TV shortly. If you are looking to buy one... PRO should be the one you should go for. Happy Customer

    Excellent that it supports DV and HDR10 playback, but I think its time for a refresh that gives the system a bit more compute power and RAM. Hard to get that when its still by far the best streaming device on the market.
