    I was told nvidia shield was top of the line for screaming, well i can truly say you want be disappointed, it exceeded my expectation and I enjoy using it. I normally use a fire stick but it's night and day for me.

    I have no complaints at all with the Shield TV Pro so far -- been using it for a little over a month for watching sports, streaming Plex, and emulating vintage videogame systems. Well, one small complaint: it randomly spins the external hard drive I connected to it through USB. Granted, there are ways to easily deny power to that port altogether in the Settings menu -- this is fairly easy to do and undo. But denying the port power altogether means accessing my Plex library through another device--my phone, say--is a no go. Not a huge deal, though; just trying to save a little wear and tear on the hard drive.

    Great device, but you don't need to upgrade

    I upgraded from the previous (2017) NVidia Shield, which really isn't necessary unless you want Dolby Vision support. But if you can find it on sale, the upgrade might be worth it for you.

    Upscaling is legit! Android TV is only so so. Not all apps are supported like on your phone, example is my local news app. I can't live stream on the shield. However, you can screen cast as a work around. ROKU did have that app though. Ran into a few strange issues that required a power cycle to fix.

    The Nvidia Studio Pro is the best video streamer I have ever used. Simple to operate and made the picture look better than video unit on my TV. Highly recommended

    Awesome box that has more storage and more channels. I'm buying another. My Cable bill has been reduced by $250.000. What a savings.

    By far the best TV "stick". The AI upscaling is awesome, really improves quality of old TV shows. I had the "Tube" version of the shield, that didn't play 4k HDR remuxes on Plex well; this does play that no problem

    It needs a refresh. They've been busy, this was developed before they became the largest public company in the world. Wouldn't recommend if your looking for latest and greatest. But TBH probably still is one of the best options out there, just hard to justify cost 6 years after launch.

    Best Android TV device you can buy. It's a little expensive but you can't get a better streaming box for the price and it has the capability to do so much more of you want it to.
