Not a bad box
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty good box I wish it had more options though on the remote control. Loading the box is a bit tricky but if you do some reading and studying you will get it. It is not user-friendly until you know what you are doing.

A Better Smart Entertainment Streaming Device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't want to buy a smart TV to replace my living room HDTV. I also wanted to be able to stream PC games from my bedroom PC to my living room TV without a long cable. The Shield was the perfect option for my needs. I had an RMA after 10 months of use because it wouldn't power on anymore. I've had the replacement for than a year now and my family uses it daily.

Great for movies/YouTube but average gamestreamer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you were expecting an extension of your PC rig to a TV in another room of your house, you either have to a) Make sure you have a very strong Wifi connection or b) a very long Ethernet cable to your main modem. Why? Well, as a media streamer, this box is quite nifty. HOWEVER, it does the same exact things that an Xbox One S does (4K and HDR) and a Roku Ultra box (same thing, 4K and HDR at about a 35% cheaper price point). But one of the major reasons I bought this thing initially was for Nvidia's Gamestream technology. It's not there yet. Even when wired directly to the main modem, the streaming is choppy at best. Note: I'm running an i7 4790K with a GTX 1080 GPU - more than enough horsepower to run at least 1080p at 60fps. When streaming games from my rig to my 4K TV, even with 'excellent' Wifi signal, Nvidia will force all settings during in-game stream to a very low resolution and boost all the anti-aliasing up. Thankfully I had a keyboard connected to the Shield to keep all my settings in check. The result is a very choppy experience. You almost have to game at 720p just to play a somewhat smooth framerate on your 4K TV (as it does the upscaling for you resulting in a very blurry picture). And re-purchasing games from GeForce Experience (when you already bought the same games via Steam) just so you can download it onto your Shield is another waste of money. Why? You're buying an Android version of the game to play on your Shield. The Shield's processor is as powerful as some mid-tier level tablets on the market (that's right, a TABLET processor) so don't expect PC-like performance.' Bottom line, if you're just looking for a nice streamer to watch 4K/HDR content, there are cheaper alternatives out there (like Roku). If you have a gaming console, you should check to see if the manufacturer already released 4K/HDR software already. The vanilla PS4 just recently got a patch to show HDR content. And those who already own an Xbox One S, you know that the 4K and HDR streaming via that thing is excellent already. Save your money. If you're intending to game with this thing, do not expect PC-like performance. Even some of my last gen consoles perform better than this gadget gamestreaming from my powerful PC rig. I'm probably better off using a very long HDMI cable to connect my PC directly to my 4K TV in the other room.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from NVIDIA Community Team
Posted .Hi,
We would really like to help you get GameStream running smoothly on your TV. You experience is far from what we would expect, especially with a GeForce GTX 1080 GPU. It appears from what you shared that GameStream might believe you are roaming and therefore throttling the experience. Please contact our 24/7 customer care team and provide this reference number specific to your case: 170118-000451. They will get your contact info so that our GameStream team can reach out to you. We hope to get you up and running smoothly very soon.
