If Netflix turns out to not work well as well, then this thing is a total bust for me, as those are the 3 apps I primarily use.

This thing is awesome!

I can't say enough good things about the Shield

Another awesome thing is it has all the streaming options, including Amazon video (which the Apple TV doesn't have)

In theory, this thing works like a "Google Home" or Amazon Echo device, too

Shield fulfills no purpose neither gaming or media streaming properly so even if available at half price this thing is waste of money, so buying a proper gaming console is much better option

When it arrived, things seemed mostly good

This thing is solid.

Side loading is pretty easy but the weird thing is that some apps don't show up on the main apps or games menu so you either have to go to the settings - apps section or install the

So far the only thing positive is I'm able to stream my PC games to my bedroom tv

Stay away unless you have loads of patience (now 5 hours in...and still trying to search through NVidia website, forums, youtube, etc, trying to get things to work.2nd day in, still wondering why everyone thinks this thing is so awesome?

It's the best thing ever I use it every day as my Netflix/Hulu stream

until the shield does it's weird thing with external storage.

holy crap this thing is powerful and very impressive

The only bad thing is that games like Need for Speed No Limits, FIFA and others are not supported.

As it's a TV/media streaming box, the most important thing is fast,smooth, high resolution video

Didn't try the gaming yet, as I am still going through the installation process for 2nd time now, in 3 hours, due to the crappy thing not working as described on Nvidia's own website.

Another thing, the remote is very simple in design and does not work well

This thing was great for a few months and now it just plain sucks

Love this thing, from gaming to watching tv content, this is a amazing device

Best thing I've bought in years

Gaming (Retro emulation, Android gaming, and PC streaming)The good news is that the old box does those things just as well as the new one.

This is the best thing I have ever bought

You know this thing should hit in the face the people who made this to make them remind them how bad this thing was and is each time they look in the mirror

This thing is fast and versatile

I can't say enough great things about this unit.

This thing is awesome

This thing is awesome!

This thing is awesome...

This thing could not be easier to use you get great setup help the quality of each function is spot-on

I'll write a longer review of the Shield once I've had more time to use it, but my first week's impression is this thing is absolutely amazing.

This thing is awsome.

The only thing is Google assistance doesn't work

This thing is awesome!!!

This thing was great for a few months and now it just plain sucks

This thing is awesome

This thing is the greatest

THE BEST THING I EVER BOUGHT ON AMAZON

One of the coolest things, it's so small

This thing is so much faster

This thing is awesome.

This thing is awesome

at some point if they give a no glitchy version of this to costumers with problems it would make things better at some extent and ease up on the bad impression they have given me with this

This thing is a champ.

This thing is amazing.

this box can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be, and when things get complex, you got to know what you are

this thing flies through menus the included remote is flawless as well as the

Most wonderful thing ever!

This thing is awesome

This thing is the best out of town trip device you can ever get!I bought Sabrent 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub with Individual LED Power Switches (HB-UM43) for more added

Shield fulfills no purpose neither gaming or media streaming properly so even if available at half price this thing is waste of money, so buying a proper gaming console is much better option

The best thing that money can buy!

This thing is awesome

This thing is pure trash

I can't say enough great things about this box.

Best thing I've ever bought, runs flawlessly

The Shield TV is always up to date, and is the most reliable thing out for streaming anything and running your Kodi

It's more stripped-down than GoogleTV was and makes things simpler, cleaner and easier to use and understand

Best thing since slice bread

This thing is worth the money.

I love this thing very easy to use

Don't forget one important thing

A shame because other than native network storage mounting not working, a severe issue with exfat/ntfs, and adoptable storage being a bust, this thing is perfection

but first i want to let anyone considering buying this console to know that it is worth it if you are a big YouTube /netflix/Amazon prime/etc watcher, like the idea of downloading decent quality games for cheap or like hacking things easily to play emulators and watch streaming media of many kinds for free (many YouTube tutorials on how to do these things) then this should be well worth it for you to buy and i would encourage you to do

Apple seems to think TVOS is the greatest thing since sliced bread just because their platform has apps; that couldn't be further from the truth

An annoying thing initially - accidentally touching the vertical touch area for volume control on the remote would pop up a message saying volume is controlled with the amp

So originally I gave this device a four and at the time I meant it, but after owning it for less then 18 months and using it infrequently the fan bearing is gone the thing is louder then any thing in my house and to top it of,f similar fans go for about 15-20 bucks but Nvidia won't sell our

What surprises me the most so far is how awesome this thing is in combination with GeForce NOW

really cannot say enough great things about this box

This thing is the coolest, the remote is easily my favorite remote I have ever used, wasn't a fan of the controller but that is because I am not a dirty no good console peasant

That being said the addition of the smart things hub and the google search integration have been awesome

This thing smokes the Amazon Fire TV.

I absolutely LOVE this thing.

holy crap this thing is powerful and very impressive

I love this thing

I love this thing

Only thing that did not work as I hoped, was Plex Media Server, but no fault of the Shield, 75% of my library is not in a format that it plays well with

I love it streaming all my favorite things and haven't even started loading up stuff yet!

so that potential buyers won't think they're buying the greatest thing since sliced bread

No regrets and I'm not missing a thing

This thing blew my socks right of my feet!

The product is the best thing in the market!!!!

The coolest thing you can hook up to your tv.

Box is a lot smaller than I imagine (for some reason, the screenshot looks big), which is a good thing

This thing is so slow and interface is unresponsive.

This thing blew my socks right of my feet!

No regrets and I'm not missing a thing

The only good thing was voice command but even that was an issue

But until that happens I'll be here fighting and bashing this thing.

However the good thing end there

I had high expectations due to all the youtube videos saying it was the best thing since popcorn but my experience with setup has been awful at best

Amazing device, very strong like a beast, every thing exactly as described

The downside is 2 things: playstore doesnot mean same playstore as for the smartphones and tablets but much smaller for apps only tailored for android rv

I love this thing

I don't have smart things on it

The thing I like most about this platform is the freedom

Very happy with the product overall, the only thing I would change is to add a surround output (currently only audio output is through HDMI), I had to buy a USB to Coaxial converter.

this thing is amazing.. wish i would have bought one sooner

This thing is awesome.

That's a good thing.

I could say many more great things about this player but they have already been said in other reviews

Don`t believe all the hype,there is a lot they are not telling you
