The editors didn't like

  • Android TV apps are still lacking
  • Accessories are expensive
  • Most expensive box in this class
  • Larger than other boxes
  • Key media apps are missing
  • No remote control packed in
  • Only a gamepad
  • Pricey
  • Somewhat Pricey
  • Some Games Aren't Well Suited To Game Controllers
  • Cheap external storage options make the cost of the Pro version a little tough to justify
  • Comparatively expensive
  • No dedicated audio-out on the console (just via HDMI)
  • Android TV restrictions (task manager only with keyboard
  • Limited app selection
  • Sideloading)
  • Only available in a 16GB model (but it has expandable storage)
  • 16GB of storage • Bandwidth required for streaming HD online • GameStreaming lag
  • It's more expensive than any other streamer and doesn't include a remote
  • Aside from the game controller. Native app selection is still weaker than that of Roku
  • Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. The menu system seems designed to push users toward Google's med
  • Bottom Line
  • Nvidia's new Shield microconsole is remarkably powerful and supports Netflix 4K
  • But it's held back by several frustrating Android TV limitations
  • And its games library still can't compare with a dedicated game console
  • Software is occasionally buggy and hard to navigate
  • Sends a message that non-gamers aren't welcome
  • Considerably more expensive than other set-tops
  • Headache-inducing remote control
  • No Dolby Vision or HDR10+ support
  • Android TV is still behind on TV guide features and app support
  • Game-streaming's selection needs work
  • Small selection of video apps
  • Expensive
  • 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
  • Lacks Some Ports Of The Original
  • Android TV This is somewhat of a slippery slope
  • Because the box is Android TV. But we're still not completely there on the whole experience or content thing. I'm still confident it'll get there
  • Though. (And it's definitely in a better place than it was
  • Oddities in app selection and interface
  • 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
  • Limited Android game selection
  • Android TV still needs polishing
  • Provides essentially the same functionality as the original
  • Only available in black
  • No LEDs to indicate power or charging
  • I miss the microSD card slot
  • It'd be great if it came in green
  • Freezes/crashes
  • Key apps missing
  • Not powerful enough
  • Game controller feels cheap
  • 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
  • Expensive in comparison to many peers

  • La puissance du Tegra X1, Les jeux PC en streaming (GeForce Now), Fluidité de l'interface, Le support complet des vidéos 4K @ 60 Hz
  • Capacité (16 Go), Pas de télécommande par défaut, Interface en 1080p et non 4K, Catalogue GeForce Now trop limité, Peu d'applications pour la TV
  • Avec la Shield Android TV, Nvidia nous livre une box TV proche de la perfection. Le puissant Tegra X1 permet d'obtenir une interface fluide et des jeux Android parfaitement fluides, même les plus gourmands d'entre eux (mis à part War Thunder). Lorsqu'on v...

  • Design e Costruzione, Accessori, Riproduzioni multimediali, GeForce Now
  • Titoli a pagamento su GeForce Now, Mancanza tasto Accensione/Spegnimento
  • Sembrerebbe quasi riduttivo chiamare Box TV questo Nvidia Shield. La sua versatilità a 360°, lo rendono un apparecchio che non sfigurerebbe neanche di fianco ad una consolle da gaming. Il prezzo ufficiale è di 229€, ma su alcuni e-commerce, si riesce a t...

  • Tagli di memoria discutibili e slot microSD rimosso, Addio alla scocca in metallo, Cavo HDMI non incluso nella confezione, Prezzo elevato (specialmente per la Shield TV Pro)
  • Se siete prevalentemente fruitori di Netflix e Prime Video, avete interesse per il gaming e, magari, nella possibilità di avere un server Plex snello e potente, allora la NVIDIA Shield TV è ciò che fa per voi. Un prodotto compatto e semplice da utilizzare...
