I’m also reassured that the very earliest Shield released in 2015 is still getting updated as recently as the last update last month. I also like that the Shield retains integrated Ethernet capability (which I use) even though, really, there realistically isn't going to be any performance difference between that and a FireTV with an Ethernet adapter. Further, the Shield both enables you to set a default framerate for your TV and allows you to dynamically match the framerate of a specific file that is playing at the time. The Shield's AI upscaling has worked flawlessly for me, even at High. Of course, that can always change in the future. Instead you get a clean, quiet and service agnostic choice of apps on the home screen. The new controller is awesome, and the interface is much more enjoyable to use, lacking the ever-present Amazon promotion that assaults you on the FireTV (my perception). Its been a very satisfactory move so far. After almost five years, I moved on from my beloved rooted FireTV 2 box to the 2019 Shield tube, and then on to the Pro.
