My Nvidia Shield Pro has already stopped working. It was delivered February 16th and already dead. Just my luck. I always heard these were reliable, but not this one.

Good Media Streams

By Gregory

This this a good alternative to Alexa and Roku streaming devices. It is easy to setup out of the box but a little cumbersome for the beginner tech guy to configure as far as controlling your TV and audio sound bars. It has all the apps you will need thru the Google Play store to watch all your favorite streaming services as well as some games. You have the option of setting up an optional gaming controller and other Bluetooth controllers. Still trying to figure out how to connect it to my Google Home so I can automate through voice commands. I did not experience any lag or drops while streaming on any apps which I did get with other devices.

Great box

Shield Pro is a great box, quick, you can watch Youtube, use it for Kodi to watch Movie, TV Photos, etc. Apps for most things, HBOMAX, Pandora, and way more. I don't play games, but lots of those two. B&H had a great price so a got second one for the other room.

Almost Pefect

By Timothy
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2023-06-06

This is a great media box, it work with everything I have thrown at it. Plex, Netflix, YouTube Curiosity Stream, Prime Video, Hulu, IT ProTV, VLC and many games from the NVIDIA store. It also plays games and with the Steam Link app you can even stream your steam games from a computer to the Shield. The 3 issues that I have with the Shield. 1. The lack of IR on the unit so any IR based universal remote is out. 2. The ad banner at the top of the home screen. 3. The volume on the Shield some times gets reset to lower. Then I have to turn the TV up, but when I change inputs then I get blasted.

Pretty impressive streaming device

What is the difference between this and Chromecast?
Asked by: Bradley
As others have said the Shield is a more powerful device designed to playback content in the best quality long with helping you find content whether its TV/movies or games. Chromecast is an easy solution if you want to cast content from your phone. But, exploring content and user experience wouldn't be as fluid as the Shield.

What Cords do I need to buy separately ?

What Cords do I need to buy separately ?
Asked by: SummerLee
I use wired Ethernet, so I had to have one of those. The device is set up for wireless networking, too. It comes with an AC power cord (no brick; plugs in directly), but not an HDMI cable. If you have a 4K monitor/TV get a cable that is rated for 4K. I chose to add a MicroSD card to have more than the default 8GiB, which allows me to store more apps (not needed yet, but ...) and keep content local to the Shield to play through Kodi or VLC

does it work on 220v ?
Asked by: Mohammed
Yes it will. The power supply is a universal type 100-240V AC 50/60 Hz. But the AC outlet plug is for North America only. It will require an adapter to convert the plug to your local configuration,
