Plenty of speed and power for most tasks, Great for gaming, No bloatware,
Slightly chunky body, Android's Google Play store offers fewer apps than Apple
Quick, full-featured and blessedly bloatware-free, the Nvidia Shield K1 is a refreshing change from the sluggish, outdated tablets that clog the $200-and-under Android class. This subdued black 8-inch tablet packs plenty of power for seamless video strea...

Only device capable of streaming games from a PC, 4K UHD for native streaming, Excellent sideload support, Near-unlimited device compatibility
1-year warranty feels short, GeForce Now subscription is still expanding, GeForce Now hardware seems slightly underpowered, Shield Controller won't shut off

Awesome Gaming Experience, Packed with Features and Ports, Nice Design, Clean, Almost Stock Android, A Great Price Tag
The GamePad is not included, Battery Doesn't Last Too Long While Gaming, Buttons are a bit Mushy, The Charger is not Included
If you ever owned a tablet, know that the NVidia Shield K1 is of a different breed, it is a lot better than its first instalment and more focused on what it wants to accomplish.It's a great Android tablet, it has a good display, a premium design, lots of...
I love the NVIDIA Shield TV and think that it's definitely worth the $250 when the user buys both the Shield TV and the remote. It's more expensive than other streaming set-top boxes from Roku, Apple and Amazon, but it packs more power and better gaming...
Abstract: In my personal opinion, NVIDIA's SHIELD Tablet has been one of the better Android tablets on the market for the last year and a half (give or take). Sure, it's had its ups and downs — a mandatory recall due to battery issues back in August probably hurt i...
In all honestly, it is hard to find a reason not to recommend buying the Tablet K1. Although this is essentially a relaunch of an already existing product, the revised price means that this is not only an affordable SHIELD product, but is an affordable ta...
