Hello, I am new to LTT community. I don't know how to express myself more so I will cut to the bussiness. My question as you can see is a very simple one.

I think it is a very cool device however I would personally never use it for anything other than a novelty item. If I had money to burn and alot of it... Id buy it.

In my experience, after the honeymoon phase the shield becomes an emulator machine.

Had the portable Shield and didn't use it much. The screen was too small.

Waiting on the Shield TV to be sold in Canada so I can pick one up.

Gaming is on par with recent consoles and Kodi should work like a charm.
