Nvidia shield or Nexus 9

Hello to every one, im asking you to help to decide what tablet should i buy!

I hear a lot of good reviews about both of the Nvidia Shield and the Nexus 9 , and yet , for the last 3 months , cant decide, which one to buy!

 

I wanna use tablet in future for the next :

     Web browsing

     Youtube 

     Videos  (maybe some times connect to bigger display to watch a movie    )

     email

     word ( maybe) for the studying )

     

The size of display is actually something i cant deside what better, i dont even care if it 10.1 inch , its just , some times is more comfortable when you in bus , at work, or some where else, and can just take a tablet , and relax watching  a movie, or just search on web ( by the way , its mice if the tablet support the java on web, like some games, that run on web.

About display also, i saw that they have same Pixel density , and shame that its low, cause i kinda want to feel more clear display view .

And so as folowed, i like both of them, each have some good preferences, but i like that nvidia have stylus pen, and have mini hdm port, that i can connect , and also, i can play on it some serious  games , although im not in that really way and dont know how i feel about the 8 inch display . The nexus i, bigger display , witch mean, better web browsing experience. 

 

With that said, thank you !

16:9 FTW

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

Shield all the way. The lack of Micro SD support on the Nexus is a killer.

Web browsing: Nexus 9, the 4:3 is far better for browsing the internet

Youtube: nvidia shield, because of the 16:9 ratio of the shield there shouldn't be black bars in the sides of the videos

Videos + TV: nvidia shield,it has a mini-HDMI port on it which can easily be converted to HDMI with an adapter

email: Nexus 9, much bigger screen to read emails

word : nexus 9 same as above bigger screen=better experience

Note: Ihave owned both of these tablets and something i can say is that the nexus 9 gets way to hot. so hot to the point where it shut off on me so i returned it.

IMO: Nvidia shield is better because nvidia has an app store of games where they have been made to look better or support a wired xbox controller

Thx man, for this information. About the overheating , did the Nexus overheated you say?! Wow, so i guess you didnt had an issue with theNvidia , and about the web browsing. I used to browse on htc one m7, with 4.7 display , so i think 8 inch will not be a big problem xD .. specially its have a stylus

The only issue i have with the shield is long boot times. However i am running custom roms so your mileage will vary. Also stylus is amazing.
