i got my nvidia pro + remote sometime in October 2015. I got it from amazon and shipped thru LBC shipping cart. At that time, i think i paid a little more than 21k. That was before LBC increased its shipping rate. Also, i tried ordering it sa Benstore kasi nasa probinsya ako, pero mabagal magreply. Dumating na sa LBC warehouse yong shield before i got their reply. Sa Amazon, magaantay kayo pero sulit naman. The Nvidia TV is a very nice media center and the support is very good, nakikipagsabayan sa updates.

lucky, very lucky me...

I've learned this Monday we have a colleague sent to NJ and will stay there for only 2 weeks.  I immediately asked him for a favor. another fortunate thing, he's with the same office branch as my boss in the US.

so in short, I asked my boss to purchase for me in AMAZON and deliver to his home then hand it to our colleague.  both guys agreed yesterday and the items has been booked immediately!

sa mga kapwa ko meron shield tv magtatanong lang ako, kasi after ko mag update sa 7.0 nougat, yung applet ng nvidia games ay dapat iisa na lang. "nvidia games" lang dapat. pero sakin dalawa pa din, isang "shield games" at isang "geforce now". sa inyo ba ano ang applet ninyo?

ganito pa din


na dapat sana ay ganito na

the graphics is very good because it is like playing on a high end pc,  even the graphics is similar to a pc settings,  this is on playing geforce now games

for me the 2015 if better if we are talking about connectivity and features of the unit itself. Controllers can be purchased later on but extra features cannot.

geforce now receipt $7.99, the service is very good, walang ka lag lag ang mga games, wala din matagal na loading time, imagine mo nag nenetflix ka pero gaming ka, ganoon kabilis magload ang games. tapos ang settings ng graphics pang pc, kumpleto lahat ng mga advanced setings like anisotropic filtering, etc. lalo na kung may 3d tv ka mas lalong maganda kasi may stereoscopic settings, nde ko lang ma try kasi walang 3D ang LG B6p oled ko.

talking only of the 16GB variants:

smaller form factor lesser by 40% in size (according to NVidia) thus they removed the 2 ports in the 2017 model.  also, they removed the "On" switch in the unit -- but there is On/Off button on the "included" flat remote.  the body of the 16GB 2017 is more matte plastic-looking --- less of the piano finishes found on the 16GB 2015.

these units comparison is subjective to consumers.  some needs the extra ports that has been removed, thus they say it's "pangit na".. while others, likes a smaller sized unit whom may not need those extra ports, thus they say "mas maganda"..

what's important is performance.. they're still the same.  and also, NVidia's support is VERY okay.  imagine, whatever app features/OS were put into the 2017 model, they also offered as updates to the 2015 model.  kaya pareho parin sila.  sa iba yan, iiwan na nila kung ano meron sa lumang model at ilalagay lang sa bago.. para masabing "bago" talaga.  the case of NVidia is otherwise.

for the 500GB variant, all exactly the same.  only new designed controller and with new "free" remote (new because the 3.5mm audio jack is removed, but it's given as a freebie, anyway).  you can still buy the 2015 flat remote separately, for PhP2,800, I think...

HTH!

Thanks to all your replies.  Without the IR on 2017 version, can I still use my Hamony Hub to control it?

^ I think not,  harmony relies on the IR blaster port of the 2015 model

You need to be subscribed to GeForce now service,  $7.99 a month and you must have a fast Internet,  I have Pldt fibr 50mbps to play excellently without lag

Finally bit the bullet and ordered my Nvidia Shield Pro from Amazon last week.  Hopefully, it'll arrive by mid-March

I was in Greenhills last week and searched high and low for it. Not a single store was selling it, not even Game One Gadget.

Now next on my wish list is to upgrade my existing TV (55" LA7400 to 65" UH7700) and internet connection (from 10 mbps to 50mbps), to maximize my streaming and gaming experience

Is it true that if you use a hard disk via usb in nvidia shield you can no longer use that in another device, unless you re format it again?

Can somebody confirm this?

Yes,  if the shield's OS is either version 6 marshmallow or version 7 nougat,  and you adopt the hardisk to be part of the shields internal storage. But if you just plug it in and not adopt then you can still use it on other devices without the need of reformat

Ah ok so if i just use the internal 16 gb for the os, then i should be fine and use my current hdds to my other media players still right?

How about games can it be saved to a usb plugged hdd? Or do you have to install them on a hdd with the os in it?

Already got mine from BenStore. It's pairing on my Harmony Hub without problem via Bluetooth. I'm now finding ways how to map keyboard functions on my Harmony.

the 16 gb is too small to fit all your apps,  my suggestion is you buy a USB drive with fast read speed say 128 gb and adopt it as internal and you install all your apps here,  then use the other USB slot for removable storage of the size of your choice and use that for copying files that can be later plugged to other devices
