Original NVIDIA Shield TV Gets New Features Today
NVIDIA may have unveiled its new Shield TV set-top box at the Consumer Electronics Show 2017 last week but it’s not forgetting about its original set-top box which was released back in 2015. The company had promised to release a new update for the device to bring some of the features it announced for the new set-top box over to the original model. As promised, the NVIDIA Shield Experience Upgrade 5.0 has been released today.
The biggest change that this update makes is that it bumps up the original NVIDIA Shield TV box to Android 7.0 Nougat. The core OS is now the latest iteration of Google’s mobile platform and features several performance and stability improvements.
NVIDIA Shield Experience Upgrade 5.0 also brings some new apps for the device, including but not limited to Comedy Central, Amazon Video, Twitter, and NFL. It adds a new NVIDIA Games hub which is a one-stop destination to access all games from.
Gamers will appreciate that this update upgrades the GeForce Now game streaming service to provide up to GeForce GTX 1080 graphics and the local GameStream feature can now stream games from PCs at up to 4K HDR.
Those who own the original NVIDIA Shield TV can download this update today. Features announced for the new model like Google Assistant smart home control and further performance improvements will have to wait until the new box is released.
