    If you have a home theater, with good surround system this, is for you. If you are just on a tv with a soundbar, you are good with a firestick. Low end bass, and mids sound way clearer with this setup, not to mention the 4k upscaling. This thing is a beast. I really like the remote as well, but I dont use it, as I have a harmony. worth the money!

    I have had them all. ROKU, Firesticks, Apple TV, but have always wanted to try the Shield. Since I have a 4k TV and a pretty decent surround sound system, I thought I would give it a try. First, Yes, with the AI Enhanced setting selected, there is a noticeable difference in the picture quality, it may come with a cost in speed and buffering, just depends on your internet and TV. The app store offers most of the same apps as the others. One issue was the Paramount Plus App. It had a horrible picture quality, which did eventually clear up some. For some apps you may need to disable the AI Enhance feature. Set up is very simple. I had it up and going in less than 20 minutes. From there it is just tweaking it to your own liking. All in all, an excellent streamer with a few minor hiccups, that can probably be resolved with a few adjustments here and there.

    The TV shield pro is a lot nicer than the fire Stick and other media devices because it has a game processor built in and it is very fast

    Got rid of both my Apple TV 4k units and replaced with these. Fast, great upscale, side load apps, and always updating. I don’t use the gaming features but just for streaming it is the best I’ve used.

    When I purchased this I only had an 1080p tv with ARC and using the plex app on the tv I wasn't getting Atmos/DTS-HD audio to my Denon receiver. The Shield fixed that. The Shield is networked on my LAN, with its Plex client accessing my Plex server on my pc. Shield ouputs Atmos/DTS-HD to Denon receiver which outputs the video untouched to tv. Works perfectly as it says it will. Great product.

    I needed a robust video streamer as well as a Plex media server for my ripped blu-rays on my NAS. This fits that role perfectly. Absolutely a breeze to setup. I watched a few Plex server YouTube videos and was up and running within an hour.
