    This is by far the most advanced smart tv device on the market. Has chrome cast built in as a bonus. Enough processing power to stream all 16 of my home security cameras which are 3mp each. You won't find another device that can do that. Also doesn't require a mobile device to run it like Apple TV, chromecast and roku. Spend your money on something you won't have to replace in6 months. Buy a shield.

    I purchased this primarily as a streaming client for Nas media and a lodi box. It works flawlessly. I am going to purchase 2 more for other rooms in the house to be able to watch movies on any tv.

    Streams everything I can throw at it, Netflix, YouTube, local .mkv files on my NAS and all look great. Plays games too, good selection of Android games and I can stream from my PC in 1080p @ 60 FPS.

    I got it and I absolutely loved it, it did everything I wanted to. However most games I tried to play on it had a slight lag. Hardly noticeable but when playing the game I could not get the games to pause without hitting the home button. The pause button wouldn't work. Other than that great buy.

    I bought this for my daughter for her birthday and she is on it all of the time either playing games or watching movies. The addition of the plex server with the latest update is great.

    I am impressed with the ability of my Nvidia Shield in many ways. It is ergonomic and well designed with very high performance specs. It is well worth the price.

    Best Media Player RIGHT NOW

    This is a great media player, especially if you have your own library of media. Now with the addition of Plex Media Server, the Shield went from Great to Super Fantastic. Available apps are getting better, though if you are stuck in the Apple ecosystem, you may not have access to all of your movies. Music can be accessed through the Google Play upload service. The one thing I wish this had is an optical outlet or an audio out port to take advantage of the Dolby Surround Sound.
