    I can’t say enough great things about the Nvidia Sheild! It’s so much better than the Amazon Fire TV that I have. It’s fast and very easy to use

    Haven't taken it to its full potential yet but great product. So much faster and easier to navigate than fire tv sideloading apps is a breeze. Enjoying just playing some basic android games on the big screen. Highly recommend will be buying more as gifts.

    Had the premiere plus, but it didn't play nice with 4k avr. Shield and Android TV has been great. Great performance, but more importantly more functionality.

    We spent years replacing cheap Android boxes about every six month at about $80 each, after the last one stopped responding, despite a rebuild, we decided to put the money into this one. Worth every dime spent. We didn’t realize how poor the buffering and general performance of a knock off Android box was until we used this one. The games are bonus fun (tomb raider!), and I was able to set up Amazon Prime, YouTube, and Netflix with my accounts with no issue at all

    I am not a gamer, in fact I have never played a game on my NVIDIA Shield TV since I purchased it. I have owned to Chinese Android Boxes in the past and was satisfied with their performance, that is until I got the Nvidia Shield. Not only has it outperformed the other Android devices I own but I have set it up as a PLEX server with a 3.0 USB 1.5 TB drive attached and it worked incredibly well. I can stream content to three devices simultaneously without any lag or tearing. The Nvidia was well worth the extra money I paid for it. I highly recommend this device.

    While more expensive than items such as a fire stick, it provides features well worth the price. It comes with a controller and a remote, both of which can control audio volume of a tv or surround sound system. The controller for gaming also has a built in headphone jack that can be used to watch videos or play games without disturbing others. One of the main selling points of the device is streaming pc games with nvidia graphis cards, which it does well. Overall a great product that I would buy again, and just might for several other rooms in my house.

    The Nvidia Shield is a very fast capable streamer. It was purchased after returning a poorly functioning Roku Premier +. The remote leaves something to be desired with no dedicated play or pause buttons. Can't say anything about the gaming since I do not game. Overall I like it.
