    Upgraded from an OG Shield TV. Even though it is nearly identical, it is still the best set-top box, hopefully, nVidia will update soon.

    I use this as my plex server with two external hard drives attached and it has worked very well so far. It also plays back media exceptionally well. Though the price could be a little bit lower.

    I had to buy this to sync lights using Philips Hue Sync Box because built-in Smart TV apps will not work with Philips Hue light sync. I chose this external streaming device because Consumer Reports and Best Buy had it topped ranked. I also chose it because I needed to get my children, who prefer to play Fortnite and such on the PC, off of my PC. Sites state that this device can mimic PC gaming. However, one of my sons who tried it using a wireless keyboard and mouse said it is more glitchy than playing Fortnite with Nintendo Switch. He also indicated that you must use a controller by NVIDIA to work because his PS 4 Dualshock controller wouldn't work. Bummer.

    I have every streaming box, Apple TV, fire TV Roku, all 4k and all the newest models. As of today they are unplugged. The shield replaced them all. Seriously Nvidia you got it right. This thing is perfect.

    I was upgrading from the 2017 model. The AI upscaling is an amazing feature, makes regular HD and 1080 resolution pop on your OLED or 4k projector. Finally the NVIDIA Shield has Dolby Atmos for Netflix.

    A much more robust option than the competition. Previously owned Amazon Fire TV and Roku Ultra. This Shield has more horsepower and is better equipped for 4k. Another great android powered device!
