Performs well, until.......
This is second one I've purchased. First one was new, second is used. Works much better than a firestick or an android box until it stops dead! The first one died after 2 1/2 years, with no resurrection no matter what I tried. Another new one was out of my price range. Took a chance on a used one and it works as good as the other one when it worked. Time will tell how this one will hold up. I have a firestick and an android box, but in my own opinion, neither compare to what the shield can do.Read full review

I Wasn't Impressed, But It's A Good Option For Those Without HTPCs!
I have large 4K and 1080p files I play from my external hard drive and every app I tried, Kodi, MX Player and VLC, had the audio out of sync with the video after awhile. I chose bitstreaming in the settings of the Shield as well as within the apps and only one app actually sent the HD audio codecs to my receiver, but the other two didn't. This is great for people who don't have smart TVs and those who mainly stream from online sources. However, those who are into lossless, high bitrate video and audio will be inevitably disappointed! I will go back to viewing movies from my external HDDs on my HTPCs without all of these problems.Read full review

I wish it had the NVIDIA SHIELD Pro remote
It's very easy to set up. The only con so far is the remote for volume control. I already own the
NVIDIA SHIELD Pro and the remote is way better. It lights up when using which is great in a dark room. The volume control buttons also work way better.Read full review

Much better than expected.
Two things: features and speed. Could use a little extra storage but that can be solved by adding and external hard drive or thumb drive. In comparison to the cheap Chinese box I tried, this is a gladiator.Read full review

Great Product.
Very happy with device. Reason for giving 4 stars is original remote has limited functional controls. Get 2019 remote which is compatible with older units. I am not a gamer, hence I cannot comment on game controller.Read full review

Plex Media Server Broken - Everything Else Works Well
I like the android TV interface. It works well as a Plex player and with Netflix. It has plenty of game options that I have not yet explored.
However, I also bought it in order to use it as a plex media server, meaning to host all of my media to devices (tablets, TV's etc) in my house. This was a heavily advertised feature. And now, after some recent updates, this won't work for me. The server constantly goes offline. I am not the only one to have this problem, based on reading forums.
If you are looking to buy this product for that purpose, you might want to reconsider. The support has been non-existent.

Great product!
Setup was easy. The device is smaller than expected but packs a punch. The only reason I am giving a 4 star is because GeForce Now which hosts all of the best games is in Beta free and there is a waiting list. Nothing like being excited about a new device to have to wait to take full advantage of it. The game controller is similar to the xbox one controller. It could use an LED light to let you know if its charging, charged, or turned on. Nvidia says to navigate to the accessory in the settings tab. User experience is pretty intuitive. Overall very pleased!Read full review

NVIDIA
I like this this box it very fast, nice pictures
You can download or installed any app. The screen settings is easy to use and you can modified it. I Like the remote I can control both the shield and the tv. I add don't like the voice command on the remote because it only take me to YouTube for any commands.
This is the best box i ever use I will buy more.Read full review

great product
Works very well, Has lots of good apps already installed, easy to add extra storage. Could have a remote with more featues bur can be used with a bluetooth mouse or keyboard. Can be opened with a harmony remote but then have to use the remote to move around.Read full review

Best Android TV Box By Far
This is by far the best Android TV streaming box I have found. It is fast and stable and offers features (like Plex media server) that simply aren't available on other boxes. The only negative might be that the 15 Gb model lacks serious storage space. Thankfully Nvidia thought of this and now lets you use external memory to expand this capability. I have added a 128 Gb flash drive to mine.Read full review
