    I have pretty much every popular streaming media box there is. The Nvidia shield is my streamer of choice. I love the quick, snappy response of the unit and this new remote made my favorite media device even better. Friends that visit me and see me playing games on my TV assume I’m on a dedicated game console and are blown away when I tell them it’s the Shield and the game service is free. It’s significantly more expensive than a Roku but offers more capabilities.

    It’s snappy and quick. Mostly customizable. My only knock is for google tv. I can’t stand the banner ads at the top. I use it for Plex and it handles that wonderfully.

    I have been a shield user for some times now. I have tried all kinds of android boxes, fire sticks, and rokus. Nothing has ever come close to the performance and versatitly of the shield. I highly recommend anyone in the fence about the shield to just do it. You won't be sorry.

    Best streaming hardwire device. Has so many possibilities. You are probably interested in this because you know about its capabilities. You can make this another streaming gaming platform, as well as a emulator for older games if you look online. Also has AI enhanced to upscale picture quality and it works great.

    I’m impressed by the picture quality, the colors are better and I can see more detail compared to my Apple TV. The biggest downside is the awful remote. I was t a fan of the Apple TV remote but it is so much better than the remote that comes with this. My primary reason for buying this is the ability to connect external storage and a wider range of apps, although no matter what I try the home screen is much more cluttered than on the Apple TV. Overall I’d recommend this for ver an Apple TV, I just wish it had a better remote.

    Plays full Blu-ray remux content with dolby atmos and vision. I have a hard drive wired to the shield with moves that run through the shield's plex server. Staring to show it's age by being a little slower.really wish they would update this model.

    this thing does it all! ethernet port, usb port for external storage, google platform with android OS makes it easy to install your favorite streaming apps that arent available with competitors products. you can even side load apps or use your playstation controller for games. i havent even mentioned 4k AI up scaling either. much more to list here

    The AI upscaling feature is very good on this device and have not left it on to High by default as it barely encounters any issue and if it does encounter an issue it is due to low quality videos it has to work with to begin with. The versatility of the product is also good with it being able to act as a Plex server you can just plug in a external USB Hard drive and get your DVR and movie collection available on the go.
