Greetings everyone. Hopefully, you are all doing well. We are Devices (D3vicx) and we specialize in helping people solve their many TV Entertainment problems with a premium streaming device.

Today let’s dive into the world of Nvidia Shields and which one you should buy in 2022, going into 2023 now moving into 2024. This blog is updated to help you when buying the best premium streaming device.

So at this point in time, no one knows if a new Shield is coming out. If it does I think we would see it in 2023 or even 2025 due to the chip shortage.

But here we are in the Fall of 2023 and I haven’t heard a word about a New Nvidia Shield yet. I will say there is one Nvidia Shield still going strong and is still the KING of all streaming devices.

From you now knowing that little information let us pick from what is out there on the market today.

You have between the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019 and the Nvidia Shield TV 2019 aka the “Tube”. I know some people are even thinking about the Nvidia Shield TV 2017.

It's perfectly fine to consider older models of the Nvidia Shield as long as they're brand new, avoid all refurbished units. Refurbish Nvidia Shields will NOT come with a warranty.

Nvidia Shield TV 2019

Let’s start by taking a look at the features of the 2019 Nvidia Shield TV, also known as the Nvidia Shield, “Tube”. This device offers:

• 4K HDR capability

• Dolby Vision HDR & HDR 10 support

• Dolby Audio features, including Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby Atmos

• DTS Surround Sound for an immersive audio experience

• 8GB of storage with an expandable micro SD card slot (consider upgrading to a 1TB)

• It's important to note that details about the RAM for this model are limited.

Overall should you buy the Nvidia Shield TV 2019?

Aka the "the Tube"?

My answer is NO.

With only 8GB of storage and 2GB of RAM, this model falls short of delivering a seamless experience. Many users have reported issues with this device, which can be particularly challenging for non-tech-savvy individuals.

At the premium price of $149.99, I did expect the Nvidia Shield TV 2019 to outperform other small streaming devices in the field. Yet, it seems to have the same issue as the other small tube-like streaming devices, buffering.

I think this is due to none of these tube-like streaming devices having fans to cool the streaming device when needed the most. A big plus is you can expand the storage up to 1TB.

Unfortunately, the buffering problems are going to outweigh the ability to expand storage.

Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019

Let’s talk about the features of the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019.

• 3GB of RAM and a processor with a 256-core GPU aka the NVIDIA® Tegra® X1+ processor

• 4K HDR support with Dolby Vision

• Dolby Audio and Dolby Atmos for exceptional sound quality

• 16GB of storage, expandable up to 4TB via USB SSD Drive

• Multiple ports, provide versatile connectivity options

Here is where these devices start to pull apart from one another. They both will come with Android 11. But the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019 we offer running Android 9 version 8.2.1. We downgraded from Android 11 back to Android 9.

Many users have reported the issues with the Android 11 upgrade have caused a ton of problems with apps like Kodi and Plex for people who love to stream.

Don’t worry we have a free video on how to remove Android 11 from your Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019. It’s free we have it posted on our YouTube Channel. It’s a full series from downgrading to block Android 11 for good.

When it comes to loading the two Nvidia Shields, I was able to put our whole Elite System onto the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019.

The Elite System is 55 APKs working together to give you access to free TV Entertainment. With the Nvidia Shield TV, I had to cut that number down so I could leave at least 1GB of space for updates.

Both devices can run the APKs off an external card but that’s not the point. You can’t really run Remux Movies on the Nvidia Shield TV 2019, there’s not enough RAM to power the files.

Overall should you buy the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019?

Yes, of course you should.

This is the Nvidia Shield that is still KING of all streaming devices in 2023 moving into 2024. Every other company had its time to surpass the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019 and none of them did.

Only the Apple TV 4K came close. You can do so much with the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019 it would make your head spin. When it’s Jailbroken, the Jailbroken Nvidia Shield Pro becomes your Ultimate TV Entertainment Solution to all of your TV problems.

When the Nvidia Shield TV Pro is loaded right you can replace your high cable bill and the many subscription services you have on hand.

Giving you access to free popular paid subscription applications. Watch for free Movies, TV Series, and Anime from:

• Netflix

• Disney Plus

• Prime Video

• HBO MAX

• Paramount Plus

• Apple TV Plus and more!

These devices hold no copyrighted content on them. They are just search engines that can stream it all.

We do highly recommend using a VPN if you get a notice from your Internet Provider. The only devices I see this happens with that we offer are the Jailbroken Apple TV 4K when streaming outside of Kodi.

The only VPN we recommend is IPVanish. It’s the only VPN service that works on all streaming devices and the first VPN service for the Apple TV. If you need a VPN give IPVanish a try. They have a 30-day Money Back Guarantee.

Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2017

5 years ago Nvidia came out with the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro with 500GB. You got everything you needed in the box along with the controller.

I always tell people to go with the best device on the market which is Nvidia Shield TV Pro running Android 9. But should you look at buying an Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2017?

Hell YES! With 500GB of space, yes look to see if you can get a brand new one, DON’T buy anything refurbished.

I’m not sure if I would recommend buying a used one from somebody unless you know how to flash the system. Which is just downgrading the update. My mind is blown 🤯 thinking about 500GB already built into the physical device.

So why should you get one of the Nvidia Shield TV Pros?

Hands down these Android boxes are the best streaming devices on the market for everything you want to do with it them. With the 2019 Nvidia Shield TV Pro, I can easily put 55 APKs on it and it will still run smoothly with only 16GB. From there you can add on a 4TB SSD Drive.

With 500GB I could probably do 1,000 apps, 500 saved movies & tv shows. At this rate, I’m talking myself into getting one of the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2017 models.

I will be looking at eBay first to see what the prices are. I’m not a trusting fan of Amazon so if I look there it will be with extreme caution.

I want to add if you get any of the Pros or even the TV. I know a guy on Etsy who does great 3D printing work for a base.

I paid like $6.99 for my base and we give them out for free to our first 10 customers. This is not a paid ad at all, I get no money from this person. I really just like the base he made it’s a nice neon green that matches the logo.

Learn to load your own Nvidia Shield with Video Classes

While not for everyone who may be interested in this option, it's perfect for those who want to learn to load their Nvidia Shield.

Learn to enhance the device's capabilities, and have the confidence to do so.

Our Video Classes offer four straightforward tutorials on how to load your Nvidia Shield Pro. We've designed these four videos to be user-friendly.

So don't worry, you won't actually be jailbreaking anything. Android devices are inherently open to APKs.

What you'll be doing is learning how to load the right APKs onto your device, allowing you to access TV Entertainment for free. This can provide you with a much-needed break from the high costs of cable subscriptions and the continually rising fees of paid streaming applications.

Please note that the APK you see in this blog won't be the one used in the Video Class: Jailbreak Android. This is because the featured APK can be challenging to maintain, given the frequent programming changes and the absence of the upgrade pop-up.
