    Great streamer that also plays games

    Really does an excellent job as a video streamer, both with local content (via Plex) and services like Netflix/Hulu. Also fun as a game console, though you might be frustrated by the selection of games. There are some awesome Shield exclusives, but some of the old standbys like Minecraft aren't playable on it.

    I bought this unit with the intention of not having a regular cable subscription and doing all my viewing over internet. This unit has a very simple interface for watching program through apps, and is very easy to customize.
