Black Friday is here, and if you're looking to upgrade your streaming device, now is as good a time as any to do it. There's no shortage of streaming options available in 2023, but the device I've trusted for over four years is the NVIDIA Shield TV Pro. This Android TV streaming box launched back in 2019, but it continues to be the best overall choice in 2023 — if anything, it has gotten better with time.
The Shield TV Pro combines powerful hardware with the minimalist Android TV interface, and what makes it stand out against every other option is the fluidity. If you're using the default smart interface your TV came with and are noticing issues (not uncommon) with navigation and responsiveness, you should consider switching — you'll see an immediate difference. The Shield TV Pro usually sells for $199, but for Black Friday, you can get your hands on it at just $169 — this is the most that NVIDIA has discounted the streamer over the years, and even at just $30 off, it is a terrific deal.
