Best budget streaming device?

Yes it was, I gave it to my son and he seems to be having no issues with it but he uses wifi, I had mine hardwired and kept getting the time/date issue, got fed up having to keep manually resetting it
The tube version of the shield is dire, pointless.. however the pro with a custom launcher such as projectivity launcher combined with tivimate premium, stremio, Plex and hyperspin makes it unbeatable even after 5 years.
 
I think we have gone off thread here as the posted asked :-
I'm looking for a budget iPTV streaming device for for my mum that is 4k compatible, reliable, discreet and simple to use.
I use the Nvidia Shield TV Pro 4k but am unsure of the best budget option with 4k, any help or assistance much appreciated.

As far as budget options are concerned then a 4k Firestick is probably the way to go, with a paid sub

What exactly makes it dire and pointless? i'd be interested in finding out, have you owned or used one?
 
I've had one, it was rubbish, sent it back and purchased the pro and the difference was night and day.
i had one which nvidia relaced three years out of warranty for a fault but also bought four for famaily members, none of them having a problem of any description-i also have one in my bedroom which has never had a problem?

They have the same cpu but the Tube has 2gb RAM 8gb storage and no USB ports.
Pro has 3gb RAM 16gb storage and 2 USB ports.
The extra RAM will give it better performance.

The ram and storage makes every bit of difference between the two, plus the AI upscaling which makes poor sense content looks superb. Works great on IPTV channels.

The tube has upscaling but any decent modern tv has as good or better upscaling than the shield offers nowadays.
 
Looking at getting a shield to upgrade my firestick 4K max.
This will be for IPTV only not gaming as I just to say get time to watch 90 minutes of football with kids!

Are they worth the £200 mark just for IPTV?

Not bothered about spending the money just want to make sure it’s worth spending and the quality is great.

Heard nothing other than great comments on them…

You would be better off buying a device actually for iptv like a Formuler device like the Z11 pro max.

Z11 doesn’t support Dolby vision, uhd on Netflix etc.

Just had a quick compare and it looks to be behind the shield.

Want what’s better for IPTV but the s11 isn’t jumping out the water compared to the shield

You said you just wanted it for iptv and that’s why I suggested the formuler device.
Official streaming app support is a different matter.
I personally wouldn’t buy a shield now but I don’t use official streaming apps, so I don’t need the support for them but most of them can be installed on a smart tv nowadays.

The 4k max is more than enough for IPTV in fact with tivi it is the best bang for buck device you can buy.

The shield is overall better but not worth it for IPTV alone.

The shield also doesn’t support HDR(HLG)
av1 codec and doesn’t have proper AFR handling that works correctly.
