Customer Ratings & Reviews

Vey impressed by the response performance of the Shield TV. I have owned every popular Steaming device out there, Apple TV, Amazon Fire Stick, Roku, Google TV and others, and this device really out performs all of them, with Apple TV being the closest 2nd to it. Finally able to find a good performing Streaming device for us Android users, and can finally move away from Apple TV, which works fantastic but as an Android user Shield TV give me the integrations I need for my android eco system.

I used to use the built in apps for Youtube and Plex and the like, but my TV was soooo laggy and the menus were awful to navigate. The nvidia shield has a much nicer and smooth interface, and with moonlight I can play games streaming from my PC in high quality with no lag all the way downstairs in my living room! The only two problems I have with it right now is that they've put an ad banner on the top of the main page, which is annoying, and also that the Amazon prime video app doesn't seem to work right sometimes, but I think that might be Amazon's fault.

A must have if you have a 4k TV. With streaming services having so many titles to choose from there is a surprising lack of 4k content, but this can help fill that gap with its upscaling capability. Not the biggest fan of nvidia as a company, but you just can’t deny that they are the leader in graphics and AI right now. On top of the excellent picture, it’s also just miles beyond everything else performance wise. No more lagging and glitching TV interfaces.

If your tv isn't smart or you want an extremely powerful device to stream, this is for you. Fast, feature laden and easy to setup and add apps to. Not cheap but worth it.

The NVIDIA Pro Shield is a fine piece of hardware, the tegra processor and built in graphics chip make for a great NVIDIA NOW experience. The most capable 4K TV companion for HDR streaming and HD gameplay. The backlit remote is wonderful.

I'm not a big Nvidia Shield fan, so you can trust my review, I bought expecting the best device or Ultimate Device, it probably is the best overall, but I don't care for it, I ended up with an Amazon Fire TV Cube 2nd gen, the differences in those are, the Shield can and will play the biggest or bigger 4K Files out there, like what you get using Real Debrid and other services with Cyberflix and other apps, and the big Remux 4K files on Emby & Plex servers. as long as you have a 100 speed or faster internet connection. The Dolby Atmos is excellent, the Video Upscaling which works on most but not all things is awesome and unmatched by any other device, the new Remote is great. if your a big gamer with an expensive 4K Tv and sound setup, spend the money and get one, if your an average streamer, get a 4K FS or the Cube when it's on sale.

The NVidia shield TV is a beast of a machine . From playing games to watching movies this thing does and incredible job . It's the best media player for a reason.

The Nvidia shield pro is one of the best streaming boxes you can buy and it has games you can play.

The AI 4k changes are great for content 720p and above. The remote improvements are also great. Everything else that made the shield tv a great unit are still there: game streaming from a PC, android TV apps, and solid performance on all I've used.

NVIDIA - SHIELD Android TV Pro is amazing, swift, and easy to setup. The remote controller is very nice and easy to navigate, the remote control also has a backlight, and it senses when you pick it up then turns on the light.

The SHIELD is the best Android TV streaming box on the market. You get 4K streaming, Dolby Atmos, DTS-X surround sound, and 4K Chromecast support. Plus you can use it as a Plex media server to store and stream all your personal media. The SHIELD also can be used as a smart home hub for Google Assistant and/or Alexa. And if all this is not enough, The SHIELD also plays games, including Android games, PC titles, GeForce Now, and Google Stadia. And the best part: you can use the SHIELD to set up your own retro gaming console system, from the Atari 2600, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, Nintendo Entertainment System, Super NES, Sega Genesis, Neo Geo, Playstation, Sega Dreamast, N64, Gamecube, and Nintendo Wii. The SHIELD commands a premium price, but you get what you pay for.

Really like it holds lots of storage and fast it is a awesome device

I got one of these for Christmas, my daughter saw what and how it streams and then she bought one too.I have used Roku, Apple, other AndroidTV boxes, Firestick, this is by far the one. It can almost do anything I need, including games.

The Nvidia Shield is the most powerful streaming media player on the market. I own several different types of devices, fire sticks, Rokus, chrome casts, Apple TVs, etc, and this is by far my favorite to use. I like that it has a usb port for me to watch media from a flash drive or external drive. It is a bit pricey, but worth it.

I've had my Shield for almost 3 years and it's still running fairly well. The hardware is definitely starting to show its age, but it's still the obvious top contender when it comes to Android TV boxes. On top of all my streaming apps, I have mine set up with RetroArch for retro gaming and it emulates games well up to the PS1 era. That on top of being able to sideload makes this an obvious choice for people serious about a quality streaming box experience. I wish they hadn't added ads to the home screen, but it doesn't make me recommend another box over this one.

This device is fast. Much quicker than any amazon device. Has a killer find my remote feature that I wish others had. Supports anything you can throw at it. Great selection of android apps. AI enhancement looks great. Just not sure if its $200 good.

Bought for my grandparents who find it very easy to use and when they can’t figure something out they just ask the remote to do it. And the picture quality is amazing along with the transition effect between actions are smoother. Very happy

Shield Pro is the only Plex player I have found to be able to stream (over internet) 4k content with little to no buffering, even when skipping around. The nvidia GeForce experience PC game streaming feature is quite incredible.

After looking for a very long time for a streamer that plays all of the main services in 4K with Atmos and being disappointed time and again after my purchases (Roku doesn't do Dolby Vision at all, Apple TV wont play uTube in 4K or Prime in Dolby Vision or offer Fandango at all and it converts Dolby Digital Plus to PCM losing some performance in the process, Tivo Stream 4K won't play Vudu or Fandango in 4K and plays HDR completely messed up). This unit comes as a breath of fresh air. It plays ALL apps in whatever formats they offer! ALL OF THEM! And the picture quality is the best of all the streamers I've tried too (including 4K bluray players from the likes of Sony and Samsung)! Even the sound is excellent! If you are okay with the Android platform, this is the best streamer on the market!
