    This is my second shield. I use it to stream video. The picture and sound quality is superior to other streaming devices. You can also download third party streaming software to access movies and television shows. I would recommend a VPN for privacy.

    This is the media player to get. The AI upscaling is so awesome and all streaming services that offer Dolby Atmos audio work well with no issues

    Must buy for a Plex User, not for a casual user.

    As a Plex user, this is the only device that can play TrueHD & DTS-X files. Any other device would either convert the signal and not work and/or not work at all. The recent updates have optimized the SHIELD to the best it can. Apple TV+ is coming soon for the other Apple Users like me that care about that. It's basically a mini computer. It's that power. The AI-Upscaling is cool too but personally I don't like the effect. All apps and other features work extremely well. HOWEVER the price tag is a problem for a casual (non-Plex) user and I cannot recommend it. Buy a Roku or the new Chromecast. A quarter of the price but the same values and functions.

    Excellent video streaming box. Extremely smooth 4k video. Great wifi distance. AI upscale is great too. Hell, even the remote is excellent! Get one of these, you will not be disappointed.

    This thing is great! I was using Rokus and very laggy firestick. The Roku is great but it's very limited as to what you can do. However this Nvidia is amazing! So much you can do.

    A game changer for all my streaming services. Much better than the included LG smart software on my OLED TV. Plus it can run any Android app if you sideload it (small workaround, easily Googled).

    The AI upscaler alone is worth it but this is a lot faster than my LGC3 and the apps are better.

    Got rid of the fire stick because I got tired of it crashing and the paramount+ app not working good. Now paramount works fine and no crashes. Love the fact that you can play games on it. My old games on steam like Quake 2 & Half life 2 just sync to it and work awesome. I also like the 1000 ethernet port to get top speed. Have an older elite plasma tv that's not 4k so I don't know yet how the AI upscaling works.

    I tried those inexpensive boxes on Amazon. One worked one did not. This device, there was no doubt. The price tag was a bit much, but you get what you pay for. If you need an Android TV box and you have the money, you will not be disappointed...

    Could've really gave it a little more than a %25 power boost for the money. New remote is WORLDS better than the original. I run a Plex server on my 2 year old original 2nd gen Shield with hardly ever an issue. Newer faster tech will be great for Plex

    I was waiting for the right time to buy this on sale. I can tell that patience is a virtue. I installed it together with my PC and watch how to maximize and utilize it to it's potential. I was amazed how fast compare to Amazon Fire TV.

    I was using my smart TVs app and were disappointed with the performance of them. Buying a standalone media player to play apps and stream media is what it does and does it well. Also has some great built in features. You will not be disappointed.

    The Nvidia Shield is the king of streamers! I had a some video content that was coming across choppy with some other steaming devices, have yet to have a problem with the Shield. The backlit remote is a welcomed addition too.
