    Very fast, easy to set up. Streams an almost picture perfect video to your tv. Make sure you have 4k hdmi cables, makes a difference. Icons are set up nicely and can be moved around easily. Great purchase if you're looking for the highest quality android streaming box

    Really good specs for the amount of time is been out. I've searched numerous options and compared to see if there is a better option but to no avail. I highly recommend this tv streamer.

    Great streaming device. Works way better than my TVs' own operative system. Bought this as an upgrade from my 1st gen NVidia Shield from 2015.

    Previously I had a firetv that served me well, but I was ready for something new. The nvidia shield pro's interface is nice - I like how I can configure the layout of favorites and the rows of top shows/items for each app I install. I use it for live tv, hulu, netflix, disney+, and espn... all work well. Its also nice for a variety of emulators for older game systems. I thought I would get Geforce now... but it turns out it is really just beta by invite only... and I am in the queue waiting for an invite. One day I look forward to trying out streaming games. I am able to use an older Fire TV bluetooth wireless game controller with it, and I have a logitech wireless keyboard, but surprisingly I had trouble with xbox one bluetooth controllers. I could pair one xbox controller easily, but as soon as I added a second, it wouldn't pair right away until after 3 tries. And then a 3rd wouldn't pair after 10s of tries. Then after rebooting, none would pair. So I have concluded the bluetooth support is flaky. Fortunately the older bluetooth amazon fire controller works well. I plan to get a USB hub and wired controllers next.

    Worth every penny. You will not find a better android tv experience. And the ability to remote play my gaming rig on my 4k lg tv... priceless. Honestly a no brainer. AI upscaling of my plex library is amazing.

    This is the top end of streaming players available. Streams 4K HDR content with Atmos sound with ease. Can setup as a plex server, can play cyberpunk 2077 on this thing via GeForce NOW much better than any current gen console. What's not to like about this this Media Player?

    I been a shield owner for 2 years now and I thought they would never update their machine but I was wrong and it's an improvement over the last model. I definitely noticed an increase in speed and functionality. It's not perfect but it's a great box and I'm satisfied with it. Love the new remote!

    This is an insanely fast and powerful device. I would consider this the Rolls Royce of streaming devices. It has plenty of storage and the power to be a Plex media server. The layout and expansion options are excellent and so is the customer service. NVidia did this one right!

    I was really excited to get this box. I didn't even know about these boxes till a month ago. I did my research and decided on getting the best one on the market as far as specs are concerned. Man, now i know better. What they don't tell you is that now google and nvidia throw nonstop ads through this thing at you in the form of paid advertisers.....WHY did they change 6yrs of not advertising? Seems like most of the apps that were available are gone from the store. Web browsers got removed. Took 2 days to get the thing onto my home network (nvidia's customer service was nice to help....in a way. By directing me to a forum page that didnt help). Write speeds are horrible too. I wanted to move my digital library onto the adopted external storage but google and nvidia have not made this box user friendly in that manner. Now all that said it does have some pros: 4k upscaling, streaming services open immediately, streams fast, i have no interest in a plex server but i see the advantages though, and it takes up no room at all. Remote is nice (had to disable voice assistant and mute mic but that doesnt bother me). Would i buy again? Same model and same issues and same hardware? No. Seems like they are trying to force us to a cloud only media center. Not when google keeps removing paid apps with impunity, who knows when it will disappear from your library? Very unpleasant experience with this box.

    The sheild is very fast and responsive, unlike a firestick, and even gaster than my roku. Finally got a pc that can keep up with gamestream and works great. Built-in Chromecast is a great bonus. Still a bit overpriced IMO but love it! Goodbye Directv forever!
