  • In sostanza Nvidia Shield Android TV resta il box consigliato, il modello da prendere. Non c'è di meglio se puntate al 4K locale o su Kodi 15/16 (la vera differenza tra questo box e gli altri è proprio nella gestione dei filmati a risoluzione maggiore...

  • Potenza da vendere, Molto buono il controller incluso, NVIDIA Grid, Titoli Android esclusivi

  • NVIDIA SHIELD Android TV è la prima vera console Android che possa rivaleggiare con i nomi più importanti del settore. Oltre a titoli esclusivi ed al cloud gaming di NVIDIA Grid, che porta con sé titoli di classe desktop, abbiamo qualità elevata...

  • NVIDIA SHIELD TV - всё ещё лучший способ облагородить ТВ-экран «андроидом». Держится на рынке уже 4 года и точно не планирует сдаваться. Даже в виде медиаплеера с 2 ГБ оперативки и без USB-портов эта приставка кладёт на обе лопатки «умные» системы, встраи...

  • Abstract:  Не прельщайтесь значком "Smart TV" в описании нового телевизора — скорее всего, умеет он совсем немного, а тормозить будет во весь рост, убивая всё удовольствие. Отдельная приставка — и мы говорим не об игровых консолях — всегда лучше. Мы выбрали пять мод...
