and Depends on what your streaming from plex and what equipment you have in play. The shield will also get later versions of android and the Cube is stick with Android 9 (Fire OS7) and will just be getting api updates and no new OS updates.Įach device has it's pros and cons.
It also will come down to interface for some as I will admit I think Amazon has the best out the two but with a third party app on the shield I can get it to stream the way it's meant to and not be 60hz all the time. Nvidia Shield Supports internally the same as the fire cube but Passthrough it has DTS-HD and DTS-HD MA/DTS-X MA and Dolby TrueHD-TrueHD Atmos support. If it comes down to Audio then that could be a deal breaker for some.Īmazon Fire cube Supports DTS And Dolby Digital Plus (with DD+ Atmos only on passthrough) It comes down to what you want from the Device. So you can just get the Shield TV or the Amazon Fire Cube.
The only good thing about the Fire Cube I like is the interface and The Nvidia Shield does need something that brings content and where to get it under one roof. Fire Cube at least has Android 9 (Fire OS 7) but it will never see an Android 10 Version. The Fire stick is stuck on Fire OS 6 which is based on Android 7 and it will never move off it. The Shield also will get updates to the latest version of Android so it will get android 10 and this is another thing I don't like about amazon it won't upgrade the Fire OS to a newer version so the one its load with is the one it's stuck that variant. Storage for me is not an issue as I don't play games on the Shield so the 8Gb is fine as I don't load alot of apps on it. Both devices do run the plex client The Shield Pro just has the added bonus of running a plex server.įor me I would say Plex Defiantly on the shield just for full range of Audio support where as Amazon just supports a limited range of audio codecs. I have the Fire Stick, Fire Cube and Nvidia Shield TV (was my latest one due to third party apps not properly supporting Auto 4K resolution and match frame rate).
