The editors didn't like
Android TV's app support is very sparse
Additional (and expensive) equipment needed to take full advantage of features
The Nvidia Shield's design, both inside and out, is completely different than anything available today. It's faster than the traditional set-top boxes we've grown to love and holds the title of the first Android TV device capable of 4K streaming, This box
While the specs are spot-on, Android TV, however, is still a mixed bag. First-party content from Google ends up at the top of most results, and the recommended content section usually fails to provide anything substantial, And at $199 (around £130, AU$255
The Shield is one part set-top box and two parts gaming system. The latter is better and more functional than the former, but even the former is not without its benefits. More limiting, however, is the fact that Netflix in 4K only works with TVs that are...

4K HDR streaming video, Good gaming capabilities, Has every app you may need, Simple, intuitive user interface, Attractive design
Disappointing controller, High network requirements, Only 16 GB storage
There are several caveats, but yes, the Shield TV is a good 4K streamer and great way to play your PC games. Plus, it saves you the backache of dragging your gaming rig into the living room...
The Nvidia Shield TV is one of the most capable 4K HDR-enabled media streamers we've seen, and with the combination of GeForce Now and local game streaming in 4K, it's the best option on the market for gamers. The operating system is incredibly easy to us...
Nvidia's latest Shield TV streamer is a feature-packed box that, despite mostly identical specs, is a very different proposition from the first Shield TV. There's now a significantly beefier content catalogue, from native games and streaming services to T...
Abstract: A must-have streamer for PC gamers with an HDR TV. It's for the gamers as it's not the easiest to use, but will reward you once you learn how to master it...

Still the most power Android box on the market, GameStream, GeForce Now, Greatly improved controller, Vastly improved peripheral battery life, 4K@60Hz, 10-bit HDR capable, 40% smaller than previous model, Virtually silent operation, Good Assistant support
None, “The latest version of the Shield TV makes an already great system even better. Not only is it smaller, but it still delivers the best performance of any system in its class, and with the greatly improved new peripherals, it’s even more enjoyable to
PriceThe Nvidia Shield TV console is available now in the UK for £189.95 for the 16GB version. For your money, you get the console, the controller and the TV remote all included, making it truly exceptional value for money. If you want a few upgrades, you...
