Thanks for sharing.

All too often the free and open alternatives (or these days even just the non-subscription alternatives!) involve compromising some features or convenience.

But not always.

Same as Australian carriers. Mine is $A10 /day (about $7 USD). If you're travelling for a long time the cost can eventually add up and it's possible to get some cheaper travel sims. But it's just so much easier to not do anything and use your phone as normal.

Big improvement from the old days of roaming.

For me, I think adding Projectivity Launcher over the top of it took it from a good device to a great one.

It's let me customise the thing just how I want it.

As for voice, I find it handy rather than typing text with the remote when searching in YouTube etc.

It's long, but well worth the read.

Sounds like you don't want to do this, but I am loving my Nvidia Shield TV Pro.

I've installed Projectivity Launcher on it and all the apps I want. It's such a smooth, clean experience.

Whether it's Netflix, Tivimate, Kodi or Plex, it all runs super smoothly, no stutters, no ads. Highly recommend.

The backlit, voice capable remote is really nice too.

Yes please, if still available!

Thanks for the review. Added to my 'to watch' list!

Only kids and teens? Pretty much everyone around here has their head down starting at one.

Is this a surprise to anyone?

This was already my understanding when I got the first pre-release one in 2014.

In that time, it has mainly learned how to"dim the living area lights to 50%" and "set the AC to 22 degrees". That is about 99% of it's use.

Wonder if that's helped it's AI much...

Nice, I've been using it for years and didn't even know about this feature!
