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
  • Larger than previous Shield devices

  • Nvidia packt in sein SHIELD TV einfach alles: Pure Leistung, stylisches Design, kümmert sich selbst um die Portierung von guten, zugegeben älteren, AAA-Titeln für die Konsole und sorgt mit GeForce Now für einen echten Kaufgrund gegenüber anderen Anbietern...

  • Leistung, Akkulaufzeit, Bildschirm, Lautsprecher, Controller-Unterstützung
  • Knapper Speicher, kein HDMI-Kabel mitgeliefert, schwergängige Tasten
  • Für passionierte Gamer ist das Shield Tablet ein interessantes Gerät. Der Tegra K1 ist sauschnell und zusammen mit dem optionalen Controller und Nvidia-Features wie GameStream bietet das Shield Tablet eine ganze Menge Kaufgründe. Wer allerdings mit Gaming...

  • HDRondersteuning, Speelt zowel eigen videobestanden als Netflixstreams in 4K af, Zeer vlotte en gebruiksvriendelijke interface
  • Kunststof behuizing oogt niet robuust, Niet geschikt voor oude receivers
  • Voor de Nvidia Shield TV 4K hebben we nog geen prijs-kwaliteitsverhouding omdat het product nog niet door ons of anderen is getest...

  • Abstract:  Nagenoeg alle 4K-televisies hebben een ‘slim’ besturingssysteem, zodat gebruikers via apps als Netflix, YouTube en Amazon Prime Video video’s in ultra hd kunnen streamen. Een nadeel is dat deze slimme platforms relatief snel verouderen. Vanwege het gebrek...

  • De Shield TV is veruit het beste apparaat dat op Android TV draait, daarover bestaat geen twijfel. De vlotte hardware, consistente updates en fijne extra's als GeForce now onderscheiden hem van andere apparaten met de software. Ook is het één van de beter...

  • Compleet pakket voor streamingdiensten, High end specificaties (voor games), Vlotte gebruikerservaring,
  • Design van controller en mediaspeler, Aanbod GeForce Now tegenvallend, Weinig waarde als mediaspeler alleen
  • Het feit blijft wel dat Nvidia met de Nvidia Shield met Android TV inzet op gemak. Het gemak dat je heel veel dingen kunt doen met één apparaat onder of achter je televisie, waar je series in 4K of kunt kijken, genieten kunt van films in HDR en (relatief...

  • Klein compact ding, Door apps je horizon verbreden, Ondersteuning 4K, Veel betere controller dan bij Steam Machine, Harde schijf op aansluiten
  • Aanbod games vrij beperkt, veel nieuwe titels niet aanwezig, Hoog prijskaartje, Stemherkenning niet je van het, Altijd verbonden zijn met internet om te kunnen gamen

  • Uitstekende mediastreamer, Verbeterde controller, Regelmatige softwareupdates
  • Vrij veel bugs, Beperkte gamecatalogus
  • De vernieuwingen in de Nvidia Shield zijn klein, maar fijn. Voor mensen die al een Shield hebben is er absoluut geen reden om te upgraden; het kan hooguit interessant zijn om nog eens een nieuwe controller te kopen, zodat de Google Home-functionaliteit ka...
