    I purchased this because I was tired of having several different streaming devices to use different streaming services. The Nvidia Shield will stream Netflix, Amazon Prime video, Plex, CBS and that's just to name a few. It will also play mini video games and work with hdhomerun to DVR local channels over a local over-the-air antenna. This device has plenty of horsepower for what it does and I highly recommend it. My local Best Buy store had this in stock and I couldn't be happier with this purchase.

    I have been pleased with the product but mostly because I don’t mind the android os on Sony TVs. It runs smooth and picture quality is great with 4k. Video game playback and running emulators is a breeze for the hardware.

    I love my Nvidia shield TV. Fastest box on the market. I am disappointed that Nvidia removed the Micro SD slot from the 2018 model. They need to add it back or add another USB slot. Otherwise it is a great box and I am very satisfied.
