Really Really Impressed with this!

I'm well versed with smart tvs, roku's, and Chromecast, but this Shield TV blows them all out of the water. My 1 year old Vizio P series (best model offered by Vizio) is so slow verse this Shield TV. I currently have this connected to my older Vizio tv as it didn't offer any "smart functionality" and I really just wanted to pick up one remote and watch Youtube TV without having to cast it to a previously added Chromecast. You know the deal, make dinner, sit down, turn on the tv, and of course your cell phone is back in the kitchen. That was getting old. That all being said, this Shield TV is very polished. Setup took about 3mins as I connected directly to a Ethernet cable (no wifi). A couple more mins for a few updates to install and I was on my way. Syncing the Shield remote to the this Vizio TV was done in less then 10secs. I remember my Xfinity/Comcast taking 10-15mins of trying code after code to find the right one that worked.Post setup, I had to test my Plex server first. A little background, my Plex server is 10+ year old Dell XPS (1st gen) laptop running Win10... a very low powered Plex Server by most people's standards. I have one 4k movie and this Shield TV Pro plays it with no issues. My other "New" Vizio P-Series TV with its native Plex app, can't play this same 4k movie with out stuttering ever 10secs. While I though for the longest time it was the server, it actually is the TV's Ethernet port which is limited to 100mb, while the Shield has a gigabit connection... Simply the Shield TV has the connected bandwidth to play 4k in a local network with out issue. A lot of people over look these kind of issues with Plex Server and waste money on upgrading the server when the network connection speed is the problem. A little tip for you allAs I moved on to setting up all the apps YoutubeTV, Amazon, etc, I was really blow away with Netflix. I couldn't believe how fast the app launched and the moves started playing. On my new Vizio tv with the Ethernet connection, it would typically take 30secs to fully open Netflix and another 10-20secs for the movie/show to start playing.... Everything with the Shield is near instant. It like running a PC with SSD for the first time, you had no idea how much faster something can be.Lastly I want to talk about the remote. It's a little on the small size which makes it a little awkward like I'm going to drop it. For example I have a Samsung S20 Ultra and if a friend hands me a old and much smaller iPhone, it just feels out of place in my hand. The other thing I don't like and a lot of TV remotes do this, is the over shape can't tell you which direction the remote is pointing without looking at it. For example if you are familiar with Logitech Harmony remotes, they used to have a hour glass like shape, but the top and bottom aren't the same width, with a little muscle memory you can grab the remote and know which way it is pointing. With this Triangular Prism shape it looks cool, but if you pick it up without looking, you can't tell which way the remote is pointing. People with argue that this doesn't matter as this is bluetooth remote, but it isn't about pointing the remote at the tv it about knowing where each button is on the remote without looking. Kind of like learn how to type on a keyboard, the goal is now to look at each button. Now imagain every time you stop typing, you keyboards moves around, and you have to reoriented it before you can start typing again. It really not a huge issues, but it is still annoying.A few positives about the remote... I do like how the buttons are illuminated by lights. Very useful for dark room while watching a movie. As well, I really love the "find my remote" feature. No longer do I have to go from family member to family member interrogating them on where they left the remote. Lastly, the voice search it super impressive and fast. I like the fact that I can tell it to launch an app and the app will be launched before it can finish confirming your request.In summary, I haven't test the gaming functionality of it yet, so once I get some controllers connected I'll update this review. As for my overall impressions of this, I really really like it. If they had a slight bigger and better shaped remote, I would love it. I still give this a 5 stars, when I really want to get it a 4.5 stars. I don't think the remote should stop anyone from getting this. I know I've only seen the tip of the iceberg with all that can be offered with the Shield TV, I'll be getting another for my second tv as I'm really that impressed by it.

Best Streamer!

I got a new LG C4 but unfortunately because I remotely access a Plex server I’m not able to stream 4k content. My only access to 4k content was through my other streaming services (Hulu, Disney+).My brother suggested this to upscale the Plex movies and tv shows. I have to say this thing really does a great job at upscaling 720/1080 to 4k. It’s amazing! I kept the upscaling to medium since the high setting over sharpened the image and it looked awkward on some videos.I love the simplicity of the set up and the ease of use. Most of all I love the simple extras that your typical streamer doesn’t have like find your remote (pages the remote and the remote makes a sound) and the remote is backlit.Overall I’m very happy with the device. Yes it’s expensive, but my three points I made above make it well worth it.

Awesome product. Great for streaming, games, etc.

Nvidia hit it out of the park with this product. I got tired of the inconsistent firestick products and decided to change it up and I'm glad I did. The interface is easy to use and setup. You can easily sign in with your Google account and sync it with other devices. The remote is easy to use. Great for playing games too, just use one of your XBOX controllers and game on. No lag when streaming or playing games. I've owned this product for 18 months and it's still going strong. Will highly recommend to anyone looking to get away from the fire devices.

Almost there!

Almost there! So I bought this device thinking I'd finally have it all (well not all cause I knew it was missing HDR10+, HDMI 2.1). But I mainly bought it for Dolby Vision (DV) to replace my Apple TV 4K for my Living Room TV setup. There I have it paired with a LG OLED55C6 (which I love!) and Yamaha TSR-7810 receiver 5.1 speaker setup.Little did I know that the LG '16 OLED models did not support DV at 60hz (they only support up to 30hz). I first setup the Shield TV and didn't realize for a few days I wasn't seeing DV anywhere. So I go to the settings and find I can't select it w/o setting it to the Dolby Vision (23.976) setting. I get the notice that the Shield TV will be slow if I choose it and yeah it is. You def don't want to be running it at that all the time. I then thought it might be my HDMI cables, but nope even with 8K ones I tried that didn't work either (so those went back for a return). I go onto reddit for help and someone suggested the Refresh Rate app. Never could get that working right (but I do love the numeric customization in it!) no matter what I did and following guides. So now to get DV on the streamer I found the DV quick settings toggle (which seems to go away for some reason every so often and I have to add it back in) and select that if I want to watch something in that on the Shield TV.Besides that main issue with it for me right now, it works great. Plex is awesome in it and boy did I miss seeing the right audio decoding on my receiver coming from my Apple TV. It's also the best Plex interface there is, and you can FF or RW through stuff so easy! The app store is great and has pretty much everything you need. You can turn on other settings to get other stuff you want to install on it.This tube model is a totally different design then everything they've done before. I have and Ethernet cable plugged in too, so this is really meant to go behind the TV. Sorta annoying if you gotta reset it which I've had to do a few times. I really like the remote shape and feel. Haven't tested the voice feature much, but that seems okay. But I don't use it much since I have my Harmony Hub Smart remote setup with it. From watching other YouTube reviews of the 2019 Shield TV, the consensus is that it's just as powerful as the Pro unit but missing some options with them going with the 32bit chip set vs the 64bit one. If you want to emulate on your Shield, you prob should choose the Pro model. Wished they went with the 64bit chip on this one though, I wonder how much of a cost factor it was for them on it. I wonder if I should return this and get the Pro just in case I want to later.So right now I still have my Apple TV setup in my Living Room with the Shield TV for stuff I want to watch in DV. NVIDIA are you listening? There's lots of 2016 OLED owners out there that this is an issue for. I hope you guys fix it cause then it'd be almost the perfect streamer.
