    After evaluating the current crop of android streaming boxes and trying out the Fire and Fire stick, I have settled on the Shield. All have similar interfaces. The Shield is more responsive and works great with Plex.

    I'd wanted to buy a streaming device for my TV for some time and after extensive research, I'm glad I went with the NVIDIA Shield. Between this and a stream stick, I'd definitely choose this for its sheer functionality.

    This player lives up to all other reviews. It is powerful yet small in stature. Video playback is of excellent quality. I have not completely mastered the system as of yet, but I am excited to continue experimenting.

    I bought the nvidea for streaming. It does an amazing job.netflix , YouTube etc ..little to no buffering.you can also sign up for GEFORCE NOW GAME streaming.for around $10 a month , you can stream games, like you would movies on netflix. Only problem I had with the shield, was the limited memory .only 16gb. Besides thay..well worth the money..

    The shield is an awesome piece of hardware in a small size. You can pretty much do everything with it like game and stream in 4k resolutions. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

    This is by far the best streaming box available. It can handle anything that you can throw at it, and it's backed up by the latest version of Android and the Play store. It will run any and everything!

    Probably one of the most expensive android TVs you will find but it’s packed with a lot of features such as Bluetooth connectivity for headphones, even has a Bluetooth gaming controller
