juzmafia already preordered bro?
I wonder if I should wait for controller bundle, assuming there’s a refresh for that as well

I can’t believe they’re still sticking with 16gb storage for base model.

Nope, not gonna get it..
Even the current Shield is more than enough for me..
There should be a new controller too..
Better wait for official announcement..

This is the Pro model now, the new base model will be the downgraded version with new design.
Only micro SD usb similar Fire TV Cube 2nd gen..
*
Is it really the base model though?
Looks like a completely different product since it’s in dongle form. If that really is though, might as well go for pro

If it’s supposed to compete with fire tv 4k (price wise) then fail already.

It's easier since amazon ships the nvidia shield internationally.

Anyone with a still working nvidia gamepad?
My first one just stop working, claimed for warranty replacement, received new one and after a while got same issue as well
Don’t think can claim warranty since beyond warranty period already
Does the gamepad just don’t last that long? I didn’t even use it frequently

I bought from a local seller on Shopee. So don't think can claim warranty through Nvidia. Anyway, I submitted the issue to Nvidia and it has asked for my info and proof of purchase. See how it goes. Disappointing that it is already faulty after less than 1 year (never dropped and not heavily used).

Should be ok, for mine right button not that sensitive, had to press harder than normal

I tried pairing another bluetooth remote (xiaomi bt remote) but doesn’t get detected at all. Anyone tried this?

Did you try using the Android TV Remote App from PlayStore? I am currently using this for my Mi Box and MeCool, especially so for the MeCool because the remote is interfering with my UnifiTV box as it uses IR
*
It works, but I intend to use additional physical remote compatible with the shield.
usb htpc remote no issue, just the bt remote I can't pair yet

Am still usinge the shield TV 2015 which I got with both the controller and remote. Used the controller for around 1.5 years before it started failing. Then I started using the remote which also lasted for around  1.5 years before also failing.

Started using Harmony remote 665 since 2018 which is still in use today, and sometimes use the shield or android TV remote on my phone too.
*
Bro, how’s the switch activity response time for your harmony?
I have the remote with harmony hub. Only annoying thing is sometimes switch activity delays like 4-5 sec or had to press button again just to confirm

Pretty darn fast, as in I don't feel like there is any actual delay due to the Harmony itself. just that the Shield can take some time before responding to input (but the home screen is already visible and the AV receiver and display has obviously changed input too), but I don't think that's due to the Harmony as the android tv or Shield android app also takes some time before the shield starts to respond when this happens. Although this doesn't always happen, perhaps around 60% of the time.

Same thing happens when, say I'm on the HyppTV STB input with TV HDMI1, and click an activity to activate the Shield which switches to TV HDMI2, AV receiver to a different input, and the Shield to wake up. No actual delay.

But then again, I'm using the 665 which is a really bare basic harmony, only supports IR which is why I'm hoping the next Shield supports IR again as they removed it sad.gif

Your issue might be due to the remote needing to relay the info to the hub before it starts working? Looking through Amazon reviews there are people who are either really happy or really frustrated with their Harmony Touch/Companion/Elite etc...
*
I still got that 665, just tested it again but the button doesn't respond like it used to
It's definitely great having a display on on the remote so you could see current activity or if need to trigger help feature
That delay is something i need to adjust some more

I've been using the G20 remote from Lazada rm30ish on my 2017 shield and it has been flawless. Runs off a USB dongle. Works just like the ori remote without the annoying volume touch bar. Previously tried the Mx3 and that was crap.
*
Thanks, will grab this one. How's the voice command, does it receive your command properly when trigger google assistant?
I actually had a bunch of these similar remote keyboard but most of the usb dongle gone/missing laugh.gif makes the remote useless which is why I try to get the bt remote ones. Don't have to worry about dongles sweat.gif
xiaomi bt remote didn't work - just won't pair for some reason, i googled seems like other users also have same problem

The version I bought was without voice. So I dunno how that is. It also has air mouse, which I found quite janky so I never use that. But the buttons all ok. I set power to also turn on the tv and volume control is on the shield itself, tv volume at close to max.
*
I’m looking for that voice feature just for searching stuff on kodi rather than typing each letter 😅
That air mouse is useful for astro go app at least since astro just too lazy to release proper android tv app
I’m still browsing thru some of the g20/40 remote option

Get one at amazon, with import fees still cheaper than local pricing
