Nvidia's Shield TV starts Battle against Apple TV 4K
Nvidia announced a new 16GB Shield TV for $179 on Thursday, matching Apple's TV 4K.
The $179 Shield comes with a Nvidia's console and remote but not the dedicated game controller, it is included in $200 16GB Shield TV. The omission lets the Nvidia go head-to-head with Apple in terms of pricing, considering standalone Shield TV Controller, it prices $60, the $200 Shield is also a way to go if you plan for gaming within Shield. Nvidia also offers an onboard storage of 500GB pricing $300 on Amazon,which can double as a Plex Media Serverfor local media geeks. All play 4K HDR video.
And that really drives home the value proposition of the Shield TV. It’s easily the best media streamer for geeks, offering up the aforementioned Plex server capabilities, the Google Play Store, built-in Chromecast support, expandable storage via USB, over-the-air DVR options, a dedicated game store and the GeForce Now game-streaming service, the ability to play PC games from your GeForce graphics card-equipped computer, and in the future, it’ll even double as a SmartThings hub to control your smart home devices. The Nvidia Shield TV caters to the high-end, not the lowest common denominator, and easily justifies its price.
Hands on Nvidia's Shield TV:
Apple’s new $179 box is also vastly more expensive than the Roku Ultra or Chromecast Ultra, both of which offer 4K HDR support. Apple’s pricing seems significantly out of whack against the competition.
This Nvidia-supplied graphic compares the Shield TV against the 4K Apple TV, the Roku Ultra, and Amazon's Fire TV. Take any material from a company with skin in the game with a big pinch of salt—and note the lack of a Chromecast Ultra comparison—but it all seems legit.
