    NVIDIA SHIELD TV Gaming Edition | 4K HDR Streaming Media Player with GeForce NOW

    • This by far the best android tv device I have ever owned
    • NOW.The device is easy to use, the remote and controller both work excellently, installing things is straightforward, and if you're a techie and want to get your hands dirty, the device can be mounted as a network share (via Plex) and can accept an external HDD to hold games, movies, etc.
    • These devices are complete garbage
    • If you don't already own an android device good luck getting this piece of junk working.

    • line, I really regret buying this “awful” device.

    • So the device is now unusable and all of the instructions to try to recover it don't work on this version of the device because of the insane decision to remove its only button

    • This device is capable of playing up to some gamecube and wii games.
    • Absolutely the best streaming device available anywhere
    • The device is fast and can do a lot more than your average Roku
    • The device is pretty strong, works fast and it doesn`t crush a lot
    • While we had no interest in the gaming aspect of the Shield, and it was a good bit more expensive then a new Fire TV, it seemed like the most robust streaming device.
    • This is a very wonderful cable cutting replacement device
    • Aside from this issue and difficulty finding how to fastboot it, the device has worked very well
    • Very good device
    • Having said that, this device seriously tempted me
    • Overall, a great device with a variety of uses especially if you're a gadget nerd, retro gamer, or home theater enthusiast

    • I was always hesitant to buy at this price based on the product architecture being so old (Maxwell), but it's a nice little travel device for hotels too (gaming
    • Love this thing, from gaming to watching tv content, this is a amazing device
    • Very fast device with lots of features.
    • Fact is, while an app ecosystem does make these streaming boxes great devices, apps alone (or lack thereof) do not cut it
    • This is the best streaming device ever and none of the others come close

    • It is one of the most powerful devices, it completely met my expectations
    • Love this device in every way
    • Great device, hands down the best Android Box out and great for KODI.
    • Kodi is one of the best media players ever and this is the best android device for it.
    • We've tried a few casual side scroller type games from the app store and they have worked well for us, but I wouldn't consider this a great device if you're a serious gamer

    • If Netflix doesn't work right, either, then this device is a complete bust for me, as these are the 3 apps I use
    • Absolutely loving this device so far
    • If I hadn't scratched the remote during the latest replacement, I would have returned the entire unit and bought a cheaper device

    • Overall, this device is perfect if you play games, emulators, and use streaming services
    • Wonderful device, if it works
    • It's also a really attractive looking device
    • The handsfree microphone update (like Google Home), when it comes, will make it an amazing device.
    • What I got was a great streaming device that makes for an excellent Plex server (you'll need to use a USB drive if you get the 16gb model ) and a capable gaming console with a small selection of free games from Nvidia as well as the ability to stream games off my gaming PC onto my big
    • Excelent device

    • I purchased the Shield TV to replace a Roku that has had problems since ROKU crippled older their devices with a firmware update six months ago
    • Very powerful device
    • Fantastic device.
    • The addition of Amazon Prime Streaming is the icing on the cake that Android devices have been missing to date.
    • The NVIDIA Shield TV is arguably the best 4k streaming device on the market
    • But other than that it's a really good device - I have used many streaming devices over the years, the SHIELD is all around one of the best.

    • Looks like this device is probably going to go
    • This device does set my TV in HDR mode through my Amp and starts to play content through Netflix but it freezes from time to time when playing Netflix HD, 4K, and HDR content.
    • I did get it to load Netflix, which I already had access to on my smart TV and every other device in the house.
    • Best Android Device
    • This device is not capable at all to be a Plex Media Server despite what all the paid youtubers say about it
    • This device is simply brilliant
    • its is amazing device
    • But when you hear the word “Android” and version “7”, you’ll think the device is a masterpiece

    • I mean Amazon, Netflix, Kodi, PC Gaming and more from a single device and 4K HEVC support for when I upgrade my TV in the next year or so.
    • There are cheaper devices out there, but none of them compare to the speed.
    • Otherwise, the device looks good and works well.

    • Excellent device
    • Fantastic device
    • It seems I should have just stuck with the more reliable ROKU units because I never used the voice search anywhere near enough to warrant a less reliable device and the gaming has zero appeal because gaming from a distance on a TV generally sucks when your used to a PC.
