Take a look around your house. If you’ve built out a decent smart home setup, I’d bet you’ll notice something. I’m guessing that most, if not all, of your smart home accessories are from the last few years — say 2023 at the earliest. Why? Well, smart home gadgets have improved enough recently that anything older struggles to stay relevant. I know that’s the case in my apartment at the very least.
And yet, there’s one almost unbelievable exception to the rule, one older gadget that I just can’t turn away from. After seven years, I still trust the NVIDIA Shield TV for all my Android TV needs.
