    Price is the only downside. Other than price, everything about the shield is perfection. It does everything beyond expectation.

    No other box comes close. Throw away the fire stick and the roku. This is light years ahead of the competition.

    Loving the SHIELD!

    I've used Fire Sticks for years. My only reason for switching to the NVIDIA SHIELD was to have access to more data storage and other enhancements the SHIELD has that the Fire Stick can't offer for it's price. I hesitated to switch to the SHIELD because of it's price compared to the Fire Stick. Now I'm happy I switched! I connected a 1TB external HD to the SHIELD in order to store some recordings. It works great! I'm sold on the NVIDIA SHIELD.

    It's a heck of an upgrade to my mi box. It is snappy and has functioned perfectly so far. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

    I've had a Roku forever, and it was fine, but I wanted HBOMax and Peacock, and Roku doesn't have those, so I got a Shield. Much faster loading, faster streaming, no delays, more flexibility to arrange things the way I want, compatible with my Harmony Hub Remote, NO ADS!, Assistant built-in, and the fastest, easiest setup from my (Android) phone I've ever seen. I wish I'd bought this, instead.

    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
