Firesticks and Rokus are garbage, and even the Fire Cube (yes, I have them all) can't compare to the shield. I even hacked mine so that I can press the nextflix button a short press and open plex. Long press, open netflix and double click it, and it opens hulu.
Firestick 4k Max: Best bang for your buck streamer. Can be found on sale for around $35.
Pros:
Affordable
Supports every iteration of HDR (Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, HLG)
AV1 support
Can play Youtube HDR
Can sideload apps (Kodi, etc.)
Wifi 6
Cons:
UI is ad-supported
Needs additional hardware to run ethernet and increase storage
No bitstreaming of HD audio
Occasionally needs to be rebooted
Apple TV 4K: Best pure streamer. 2021 model can be found on sale for $120-$130
Pros:
Very fluid UI. Fastest, smoothest navigation
No ads (mostly) There is autoplay enabled to some of their music video selection
Airplay 2. If you have Airplay 2 devices this makes multi room audio incredibly easy
Gigabit Ethernet
Cons:
Locked down to apple's ecosystem (No Kodi, etc.)
No usb ports for storage or game controllers
No HDR10+
No AV1 support
No Youtube HDR
Nvidia Shield: Swiss-army knife of streamers. Can be found on sale for $170
Pros:
Great for game emulators
64 bit Android (can run Dolphin emulator, Kodi 64 bit, etc)
Has usb ports for storage, game controllers, webcams, etc
Can sideload apps (Kodi, etc)
Can use Google Duo with supported webcam
Can run Plex server
Can run Channels DVR server
Bitstreams HD audio
AI upscaling (I do not have this version)
Gigabit ethernet
Cons:
Ad-supported
Last update introduced many issues (I did not update)
No HDR10+
No Youtube HDR
Occasionally needs to be rebooted
I'm sure I missed a few things but this is a general idea. I have a use case for all three streamers so I have them all connected to my main display. It really comes down to personal use case. I'm personally hoping NVidia upgrades the Shield to support AV1, HDR10+ and Youtube HDR. That would eliminate my need for the Firestick 4K Max. Being able to have the game on and airplay to other rooms makes the Apple TV 4K a keeper to me.
Hope this helps

I have found that other devices are better for me for certain streaming apps, so I use them when it fits my needs. I don't hate on the other devices, I have pretty much owned them all. It's user choice as to what floats their boat.
Over the years the Shield has been fantastic on upgrades but this last one, 9.xx was an absolute disaster. I had to manually roll back to 8.2.3 on 3 devices, this has pretty much left a bad impression on me.
That being said, I still believe that the shield is top of the food chain when it comes to CUSTOMIZABLE, powerful Android based media boxes. If you can afford it and have a need for it, go for it. If not, or you don't want it, then that's OK too. It's a matter of what works for you.
This is a good price and if you have the Chase offer for 20% (Max $20) on any of your cards, then you can get this for around $150. Not too bad if you are in the market.

When a new model does come it, assuming it's with more resources than 3GB/16GB, etc., it'll have to be priced more. Most people buy phones with a minimum of 4GB of main memory these days. Plus, Nvidia will be looking for ways to bring in more service revenues through other service offerrings within the shield. The ultimate achievement would be to announce a new product that is so great that it makes everyone with previous models want to upgrade. The AI 4K upscaling in this one did get some people to upgrade. I wonder what else they could add. It could be for Black Friday, or a year from now, or possibly never. Everyone else is going to get continuously better at media streaming, so Nvidia should focus on where it stands out - as a media server and in gaming.
To this day they haven't stopped me from installing Kodi on it. Maybe that day will come soon, but for now it works.
