  • Design e Costruzione, Accessori, Riproduzioni multimediali, GeForce Now
  • Titoli a pagamento su GeForce Now, Mancanza tasto Accensione/Spegnimento
  • Sembrerebbe quasi riduttivo chiamare Box TV questo Nvidia Shield. La sua versatilità a 360°, lo rendono un apparecchio che non sfigurerebbe neanche di fianco ad una consolle da gaming. Il prezzo ufficiale è di 229€, ma su alcuni e-commerce, si riesce a t...

  • Tagli di memoria discutibili e slot microSD rimosso, Addio alla scocca in metallo, Cavo HDMI non incluso nella confezione, Prezzo elevato (specialmente per la Shield TV Pro)
  • Se siete prevalentemente fruitori di Netflix e Prime Video, avete interesse per il gaming e, magari, nella possibilità di avere un server Plex snello e potente, allora la NVIDIA Shield TV è ciò che fa per voi. Un prodotto compatto e semplice da utilizzare...

  • Prezzo alto, ci aspettavamo un listino migliore. Perché non fare un'edizione senza gamepad?, Al momento, niente SkyGo e Infinity, tra le più diffuse in Italia, 11 GB liberi al primo avvio sono pochi, In Italia, i controlli vocali sono limitati e ancora po
  • Se due anni fa potevano venire tanti dubbi sull'utilizzo pratico di un box potente come Shield TV ("Ok, è fantastica, ma cosa ci faccio?") adesso è tutto diverso. Sono arrivati i contenuti, è maturato il software ed è tutto più a fuoco, tutto più concreto...

  • NVIDIA Shield TV (2017)Il miglior box Android TV in commercio si chiama NVIDIA Shield; 2015 o 2017 è una formalità. Non solo, ma il suo supporto ai formati video, fino in 4K HDR, è tra i più completi, e nello streaming non teme praticamente rivali, sia ch...
