Hello Everyone and welcome to our blog, Which Nvidia Shield is Best. We are Devices (D3vicx), and we specialize in helping people watch Free Tv Entertainment on streaming devices.

Helping you save $7,500 a year in return.

We like to focus on the Top 3 most Premium streaming devices on the market. Today it’s going to be the Nvidia Shield.

Which Nvidia Shield is Best? Well, it’s 2023 so we are going to talk about the two that are close to this year. The Nvidia Shield Tv 2019, the one that looks like a Tube. And the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro 2019.

Which is the best between the two? And Why.

We are going to exclude the 2015 and 2017 Nvidia Shield Tv Pro from this blog. By the release of the 2019 Shields, a lot of physical upgrades were added that were not in the 2015 and 2017 Nvidia Shield Pro models.

The difference between the Nvidia Shield Tv 2019 and the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro 2019

The difference between the 2 Nvidia Shields can get confusing on paper and when looking at their names.

You think NVIDIA could name the Nvidia Shield Tv, the Nvidia Shield Tube.

Why?

It looks like a Tube. The good part of it is you can add a micro SD card to the Tube. This would expand the Nvidia Shield Tv storage giving the streaming device the room to run smoothly. When looking at this option, it’s best to get the 1TB micro SD card.

The only problem I see with the Nvidia Shield Tv, other than the name is the lack of power it has. It has the same NVIDIA® Tegra® X1+ processor with a 256-core NVIDIA GPU and 2 GB RAM.

But why is it so much slower?

Well, they do have Android 11 running on a streaming device only with 8GB. In theory,

it’s really 5GB and the worst part is you can’t downgrade this Tube from Android 11. So is the Nvidia Shield Tv 2019 worth the money? Let us take a look at the other option.

Now let’s talk about the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro 2019. To not confuse anyone we are going to shorten the name to Nvidia Shield Pro.

The Nvidia Shield Pro shares the same NVIDIA® Tegra® X1+ processor with a 256-core GPU but with 3 GB RAM. Could the 3 GB of RAM make such a big difference in speed?

The Nvidia Shield Pro is also packing 16GB of gigabyte space. On top of this, right out of the box, you can downgrade the Nvidia Shield Pro back down to Android 9. Giving the Nvidia Shield Pro back its 20% speed that it lost when you upgraded the streaming device to Android 11.

You can add SSD Drives to the Nvidia Shield Pro. The SSD Drive clearly is going to move faster than a micro SD card. Which Nvidia Shield is Best in 2023? I’ll let you know below.

The winner of the Nvidia Shields

Both streaming devices are great compared to other streaming devices on the market. Clearly, having an Android device is a dream if you ask me.

The winner of the Shields is the Nvidia Shield Pro. Mostly because you can downgrade the Android System.

Both streaming devices can expand their storage but the SSD Drive is going to make the difference in reading files.

The crazy part, the Shield devices are only $50 a part in the price. Due to this little price difference, it’s best to find that extra $50 to get the Nvidia Shield Pro over the Nvidia Shield Tv.

The Nvidia Shield Tv to me, has no place in the market. It’s not going up against any other streaming device on the market. At the price of $150, it sits in the middle of all the streaming devices with a little edge. Again that extra $50 you can just get the Nvidia Shield Pro.

I almost forgot, the Apple Tv 4K 3rd Generation 128GB sits at the price point of $150. Clearly, the Nvidia Shield Tv will be dropped and hopefully not come back when the new Nvidia Shields come out.

In Conclusion

It’s only 1 Shield that’s still worth the money and that is the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro 2019. If you have a chance to buy the Nvidia Shield Pro 2017, pass on it. It may come with 500GB but the NVIDIA® Tegra® X1 processor is an older one.

With the Nvidia Shield Tv Pro 2019 you can Jailbreak it and add on expandable storage. Making it the most powerful streaming device you ever had.

How do we know?

We Jailbreak Nvidia Shield Pros and add 512GB of storage. We are working on a 1TB SSD Drive. If you want to know more about the Jailbroken Nvidia Shield Pro, check out our related post below.
