    Of course there are 100's of streaming devices out there all claiming to be the best and have the most features arranging prices from 50 to over 300 so how do you know what to choose? Easy get this one its fast, loaded with your favorite apps and you can play nvidia games to boot if you add a controller. It really is the only one you will ever need. One con I can think of it doesn't make it easy to download and install 3rd party apps.

    despite not receiving any hardware changes since 2019, the shield pro continues to be uncontested in the landscape of streaming boxes

    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 is a fantastic upgrade from the original. The remote is much harder to lose - the light up when touched is a great feature. I was skeptical of the triangle shape but I prefer it to the traditional flat remotes. There are a bunch of features I haven't delved into yet but this was the missing piece to get my soundbar working again. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to enhance their TV.

    Buy Buy Buy at Best Buy! (I landed mine for under $180) I have used several different types of streaming media players over the past 10 years and this Nvidia Shield has by far the BEST user interface out there. So So much stronger and faster than any other HDTV brand internal media player.

    The best little android box you can find. It's faster than anything I have dealt with (fire sticks, chrome cast, Chinese android boxes, etc...) and it has a new interface which just released which is nicer than before but even the older UI was nice... It's a great product for the modern home / if you've cut cable this is the box for you to help integrate all of your streaming services.

    I went from multiple firesticks to the Chromecast with Google TV and i was never quite satisfied with the performance. So i got the shield tv pro and it's been amazing. Few downsides, hdmi CEC link keeps dropping and i have to restart the entire setup (shield-Avr-Tv) only 16bit audio with Amazon music and no hdr on YouTube due to not supporting vp9 codec.

    If you are looking for the absolute best media streaming device on the market, look no further. THIS is the model. It's snappy, it's not plastered with ads/promotions (like FireTV devices are). The best UI of the steaming devices. I own two (this model and the previous model which LOOKS almost exactly like this one with a different remote) and love them both. It might be more expensive, but the experience is worth it, IMO.

    I bought this for my sister for mothers day and she absolutely loves it. She's told me over a dozen times how much its better than the firestick/box and she uses it everyday.

    I have had an AppleTV 4k, Roku Ultimate, FireTV, GoogleTV, you name it. All of them have had issues, either they become unstable and require constant reboots... or the apps just crash, or don't correctly identify the TV features.. NVIDIA just works. It works wonderfully, and is more than powerful enough to game on and watch movies all in 4k. Yes it's a bit pricey, but, you definitely get what you pay for.
