The Nvidia Shield TV Pro processor is an excellent streamer. It supports 4K, HDR, DolbyVision and gaming. The AI upscaling processor is an excellent addition and a good differentiator from other streamers. The only complaint I have that keeps it from getting a perfect score from me is it doesn't support HDR in YouTube- an oversight that I hope NVIDIA will correct in a firmware update.

After using a firestick for such a long time, I contemplated switching to a shield but the price always held me back when you compare it to a firestick. Finally decided to pull the plug and I haven’t looked back. I highly recommend it

While price is high it is worth every penny. Use it for heavy streaming and is essentially a mini pc. No lag and is clean with the simplistic homepage as opposed to having ads all over the place.

I will not mention what I was using before but it was top of the line in it's category and still experienced buffering. I decided to try NVIDIA because of it's reviews and I have to say, no more buffering. They don't throttle there machines like the other one. The refresh rate is awesome and the speed is well twice what I was getting.

Not an upgrade from the 2017 Shield

The Nvidia Shield Pro is a wonderful streaming device that can handle anything I throw at it. While I certainly enjoy it, the 2017 Nvidia shield does the same things that I need it to. There’s no noticeable difference in speed or features when using them.
If you need a new streaming device, this is a great choice. If you want to “upgrade” from the Shield 2017, don’t do it. Keep what you have.

This thing is amazing. Great streaming quality, plus I can link to it easily with my phones or computers whereas some of the smart tv's don't always show up on the laptops or phones to link to.

I have several of these Nvidia Shield streaming media players. From 2015 , 500gb to the new ones with 16gb. I love them. I put one on each tv to stream all my apps. I have not used them for games yet but will try in the future. I have so many apps. With so much content I have little time to try out games yet, but want to in the near future.

I don't rate 5 Stars very often, nothing is perfect. But this Nvidia Shield just works. Responds quickly with remote like a brand new computer does. So easy easy to add apps with your Google Email Log on. I use this with many apps, but mostly Kodi. I watch mostly anything I like for NO subscription costs with Kodi. I cannot imagine anything better.

We have own one for years and picked up a second one for another tv Best streaming box I have used. I have used at least 3 others popular ones and this blow them out of the water! Fast and plenty of memory for all the apps you want. Yes a bit expensive but we’ll worth the price. Plus games! You can play games on this!
