Love the android interface and now that has included dolby vision/dolby atmos, makes it that much better. Menus are very fast and starts streaming quickly. Nvidia has had a history of supporting the previous unit with updates so would expect that to continue with this version. Since android has basically any app you could want from amazon, Disney+, Vudu, Netflix, Hulu, etc. Highly recommend

I run this as my plex media server 24/7 with no issues whatsoever. It runs Android TV OS and has pretty much everything the google play store has to offer. I cannot praise the AI upscaling enough, it is amazing for 1080p content. I do not recommend it so much for 720p and lower, but you can compare the before and after on the remote control with an easy button press.

Love this product. very easy to use. Functions like any other media product, and smoother than the firestick. I literally do everything on this. If you have an LG TV with a magic remote, the magic remote can actually control it as well.

The fastest Android tv box you can get right now. I upgraded from a Roku Ultra and it was a big improvement. The interface is nice and smooth. Apps load fast. Scrolling speed through SlingTV, Disney+, Netflix is amazingly fast. I could never go back to another box. Powerful enough to game. Was able to try a few games using Geforce Now. The price is a little pricey at $199 but nothing else compares.

I used this to replace my old Steam Link box and I was completely unprepared for how well this worked. Streaming from my PC to the TV through the Shield TV Pro via NVidia GameStream is such a vastly superior solution over Steam Link. Additionally you can stream over Moonlight if GameStream isn't doing it for you. Thus far I haven't been able to pick out which method is better, since they're both incredibly good and a MASSIVE leap over Steam Link.

I already had the previous version with the game controller. Never actually used the game controller. I needed a second one for my other TV.
I can't really tell the difference in my usage from this one and the old one as far as performance.
The remote on this one is much better, I actually had to get a replacement unit from Best Buy as the first one the remote would not light up. I love that fact that I can easily control my tv with the remote (the volume and power)

I buy these as gifts for a few reasons; 1} My oldest one is from 2016 and still works perfectly 2} There is no better streaming device! - Easy UI and actions are very "snappy" 3} Also doubles as a current gen gaming device with great performance! (Top Notch Device) - Justin
