Amazon has the Nvidia Shield Pro on sale for $169.99
May just go ahead and get one more.
i too have my eye on this deal… but off topic…any formuler deals you guys have heard about?
if ya don’t have one now is the time to get one!
Several outlets have the shield pro on sale - $169, including b&h photo, best buy, and microcenter.
After owning 2 FS and replacing one with a Shield, today I ordered another one for my other TV. FS are going to be retired.
I read Troy’s post about Black Friday deals and found the Shield Pro on sale. So with a bit over $40 in Amazon gift cards on hand, I snagged the Pro. I ordered it at 10am this morning and it was on my door step at 1:30 pm!
Solid investment - have plenty of fun!
Plenty of shield pro set up tip guides and videos if you search for them.
I’ve been waiting patiently for A new Nvdia shield model to come out, so far I’ve only heard rumors and no actual factual data showing a new one coming out. I’ll stick with my Chromecast it works great other than it not having enough space and limiting the applications I can have do to space I think I will wait.
I have a chromecast still connected to my lr tv,it’s not a bad streamer at all.But the extra ram,ai upscaling,plug and play storage and ethernet on the nvidia are pretty nice to me.
If you don’t want to invest that much into a new shield pro,try facebook market place.I have seen some pretty nice deals on used ones.
The thing for me is that the hardware hasn’t been updated in several years so I can’t help wondering if they’ll drop it sooner rather than later. Also is the shield really better than the recent additions to Buzztv and Formuler?
I know Nvidia have been great with software updates but winner of the Shield will soon be put out to pasture.
For me I tested the Buzz U5 and for the price, was completely unimpressed. My 2019 Shield Pro provided me a superior configuration option list and an overall superior experience. Now that being said, I know a number of ppl that love the Buzz products and for them it’s amazing. So I think it’s about your expectations and experience.
