Great Build Quality, Excellent Performance, 4K HDR, Easy To Setup, Access To Tons Of Content, Google Assistant Integration
When the rumors first started surfacing that a new SHIELD was en route, some might have expected that the new one would easily be a step-up from the previous model. However, the truth is that it is not a massively different device to the 2015 NVIDIA SHIEL...
Writing a verdict for the new SHIELD TV is pretty darn easy. It's the best Android TV box on the market. Period. It's got the gaming performance, exciting new features coming, fantastic controller, and NVIDIA backing it up with speedy updates. As a consum...

The 2017 Nvidia Shield Android TV streaming box offers just about every must-have app, including Amazon Video, and many include 4K along with HDR. It's a versatile gaming platform with an improved controller. Voice search and interactivity, from controlle
More expensive than competing streamers. Not as many 4K and HDR apps as Roku, and no access to first-tier games without streaming from a PC
The 2017 Nvidia Shield is better than ever, and the addition of Amazon finally makes it a viable high-end alternative to Roku...
A better deal than before, New controller actually feels good, Remote is bundled in the box, Decent game streaming performance
GeForce Now streaming requires a subscription and additional purchases, Not so great for heavy-duty Android games, No big internal hardware changes, Not that much cheaper than a game console
It's mostly the same as before, but the new Shield TV is still a better overall package than the original 2015 version. It has a better controller and actually includes a remote in the box. But only NVIDIA fans need apply. Hardware It's a smalle...
Maybe the most impressive thing about the new Shield is that you don't actually have to buy one to experience the new features; all of the software updates described above, including 4K HDR and streaming improvements, are available to existing Shield...

Abstract: The original Nvidia Shield looked cool and had some neat ideas behind it, but its cost and use of the neglected Android TV operating system left the set-top box/console fusion feeling more like Frankenstein than legitimate answer to either Roku, PS4 or Xb...
If you have a 4K TV, I think SHIELD is the only truly good buy you can make for a streaming box. Nothing else has hardware as powerful, nothing else is as expandable and capable. The NVIDIA SHIELD is ready for the future of TV, and it's just as ready for...

Streaming game options work very well, 4K and HDR media support, Includes a media remote and a controller, Hands-free Google Assistant support will be added in the future
Bottom Line, The new Shield TV is basically the same Android TV media streamer-microconsole hybrid as the original, but with a few new tricks, More than a year of software enhancements from Nvidia don't hurt either

Great gaming capabilities, Lots of video and music apps, Comfortable controller, Potential for smart home capabilities
Expensive, Oddities in app selection and interface
In theory, the new Nvidia Shield sounded revolutionary: a one-stop shop for streaming, gaming and total control over your home. In practice, it’s almost there. You can almost play the best games on Android. You can almost stream GeForce Now games seamless...
