Update 12 @ 1:45 PM: It’s no longer available at Amazon, but you can still pick it up at Best Buy.
Amazon offers the NVIDIA SHIELD TV Gaming Edition 4K Streaming System for $159.99 shipped. Also available as part of Best Buy’s 20 Days of Deals. That’s good for a 20% discount from the going rate, matches our Black Friday mention, and comes within three cents of the Amazon low. For comparison, we did see it on sale briefly for $136 on Cyber Monday. NVIDIA’s gaming edition SHIELD TV includes a bundled controller and lets you enjoy 4K HDR content with Dolby Atmos sound and more. Rated 4.3/5 stars from over 1,600 customers and if you’re still not sold, we consider the NVIDIA Shield one of the “best tech device you’ve probably never used.”
If you’re looking to enjoy 4K HDR content without picking up something has high-end as the NVIDIA SHIELD, then Roku’s Streaming Stick+ is a great alternative. You’ll still get access to 4K HDR, but at a $50 price point. Of course, you’re giving up the SHIELD TV’s boosted performance and other advantages.
