Thanks and repped for the info.

The important thing is the new Shield remote or "air mouse" ones will work with the old 2017 Shield? ...

I have two of these and they're great. They play 4k plex content without transcode better than any other device that runs plex.

Another tip - they do use proprietary power adapters. I lost one of mine and contacted Nvidia support. They provided me a new power supply totally free of charge and arrived overnight from FedEx. Def nice

That also reminds me that people should be aware that the 19 adapters seem to be slightly different from the one included with the earlier model. I thought I could just swap from one shield to another and the 19 was very unstable with the old brick. Once I swapped that out for the one included with it all issues went away.

Edit: looks like user digidad said something similar before.

Weird. I use mine interchangeably with no issues.

This is great for IPTV Set up

I agree it's the best from a 'convenience,' retail standpoint regarding it's staying power for all these years, but after delving into the world of SBCs (single-board computers, e.g., Raspberry Pi), I highly disagree it's the most economic and affordable option. I say this b/c I purchased a
NVIDIA Jetson Nano 2GB Dev Kit SBC back on 11/1/2021 from Amazon for $59 before it eventually sold out which was no longer than 2 weeks later, and I also purchased a "GeeekPi DeskPi Nano Case" from Amazon to fit it in which costed $39.99 at the time. The Jetson Nano does require microSD storage to install software on it so I used a Samsung branded 256GB microSD ($24.99). The Jetson Nano is a similarly specced device when compared to a Shield. The Nano was recommended on one of ETA Prime's YT videos which encouraged me to buy one, but my intent was to install Android TV 10 on it (for content consumption, gaming and emulation) which I did by following this guide here [lineageos.org]. The one advantage the Shield has in my case is native remote control support and that it contains its own internal storage (which isn't much to brag a/b), but on the Jetson Nano you're capable of dictating its internal storage capacity according to the microSD card you use and you can use an air mouse or an Android TV remote app in place of a remote, and to take it a step further, the Nano has an additional USB port compared to the Shield. Yeah, you could say everything I've mentioned so far may sound like a bunch of hurdles, but the point I'm trying to make is that NVIDIA could do a lot better in its pricing and improving the specs over time. Case in point, I recently watched another one of ETA Prime's YT videos [youtube.com] again where he was touting a/b another SBC, the Orange Pi 5, and when I say it's a beast on Android 12, it puts my Nano and the Shield to shame.
S/N: I bought myself an Orange Pi 5 that same day for $91 in total when you account for taxes, shipping and the $12 discount using promo code "USNEW12" for being a first-time buyer 😁.

Realistically you're paying for the nVidia price premium so your wife, friends and kids can use it right out of the box. No way a family is going to replace their shield TV with a Raspberry Pi, despite its clearly better performance for games.
