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!

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.
