Today we will be presented with a tablet called NVIDIA Shield. To be honest, this modern device attracts many buyers. But what exactly? After all, it is extremely difficult to please the current buyer, especially the gamer. Only here, according to numerous reviews, it can be seen that this particular tablet coped with its task. Why is this happening? Why is this model so good? What characteristics does it have and what attracts the public so strongly? All of this is what we need to know now. Let's get started with NVIDIA Shield.
Display
With what parameter do modern gamers begin to evaluate game consoles and various devices? Of course, from the display. He plays an important role. And not only for games, but also for work. In truth, finding a decent tablet with a good screen is quite difficult these days. Especially if you initially want to buy this technique for yourself only for fun.
The NVIDIA Shield Tablet has good andbig screen. It is equal to 8 inches diagonally. In principle, this is quite a normal size in order to comfortably watch movies, as well as play modern games. There are gaming tablets with a smaller diagonal. But they are not very popular. After all, the larger the screen, the more convenient and comfortable to play. So, 8 inches is just enough for this venture.
Resolution is another important factor when choosing an entertainment device. The point is that NVIDIA Shield is of high quality. And this means that the resolution will also be quite large. At the moment it is 1920 by 1200 pixels. Enough to watch movies and use various applications, including games.
True, there are many other benefits of the NVIDIA Shield. In addition to the screen, gamers (and ordinary buyers) pay attention to many other indicators. Let's try to figure them out. What, besides the display, pleases the public in this product?
System
For example, a very important point in tablets is the operating system. She is responsible for the ability to run various programs and games. In addition, the system is also a guarantor of the quality of the device.
The NVIDIA Shield tablet is equipped with the brainchild of Google Corporation. The operating system on this device is Google Android 4.4.2. Yes, and the cover is quite good. It's called Kitkat. In general, this operating system has long been called a gaming one. Thus, the NVIDIA Shield Tablet is truly a device for recreation and play. After all, the tablet is equipped with a goodlarge display as well as a powerful operating system.
True, it needs updating from time to time. Fortunately, there will be no problems with this case - if any additions appear, the system will notify you about it, and then offer to update automatically. After a while, you will see that the process has completed. And now it will be possible to use all the new features without any problems.
Also an important indicator of system performance is the processor. It plays an important role in any device. The better the processor, the more powerful the computer is considered. Or a game console. The NVIDIA Shield tablet has a 4-core processor clocked at 2.2 GHz. To be honest, it will be extremely difficult to find any analogue in the modern technology market today. Sometimes not all computers have such a powerful processor. So if you decide to buy yourself an NVIDIA Shield, you can be sure that you will get a real gaming tablet that will delight you for a very long time.
Memory
All games require space and some device resources. And so many try to choose such tablets that will differ in terms of memory. True, there must be a balance everywhere. Otherwise, you can run into a low-quality model that will not be able to give you bright moments of joy.
NVIDIA Shield Portable is equipped with very good RAM. It is 2 GB. To be honest, this amount is enough for the simultaneous operation of 20 applications and games in combination with a runninginternet browser. And with all this, you will not have any failures, malfunctions and inhibitions when performing certain tasks.
Also an important indicator, as already mentioned, is the free space on the device. The NVIDIA Shield Tablet has 32 GB of free space. Of these, approximately 1.5-2 gigabytes is occupied by the operating system. There are about 30 left. But this place, as a rule, is more than enough for a modern gamer. However, if you are afraid of a shortage of free space, you can always purchase a microSD memory card up to 128 GB. This place is definitely enough for you for a long time. And with all this, you don’t have to constantly get rid of old information or outdated games.
Connectors
Another important indicator that buyers often pay attention to is a variety of connectors for connection. And this applies to both external devices and internal ones. The NVIDIA Shield 32GB LTE has many different sockets.
For example, this tablet has a slot for connecting a memory card. As already mentioned, this is MicroSD. There is also a USB port on the panel. It is needed in order to synchronize the device with the computer. Perhaps, so far there are no advantages over other tablets in this regard. But do not rush to be sad. The thing is that there are special Mini-HDMI sockets, as well as Mini-Sim. These are more interesting points. True, with the choice of a SIM card with a tariff for the Internet, some problems may arise. Especially if you have a number onthe usual "sim card", and not on the mini-version. Nevertheless, cellular operators in the salons will help to cope with this feature - they will easily exchange your card with the preservation of the number for a reduced copy.
If it's important for you to listen to music, NVIDIA Shield Tablet 32GB gives you that opportunity. After all, this tablet has a standard headphone jack of 3.5 millimeters. In principle, if you want to watch a movie on a small screen, but with sound like from a cinema, then you can easily and simply connect the most ordinary speakers to this jack. And they will work well. Just as good as on a computer.
Camera
To be honest, modern tablets can completely replace most modern technology. For example, a camera or camera. And therefore, many people choose their tablets very carefully before buying according to the characteristics of the camera. It is believed that the higher they are, the better.
In this sense, NVIDIA Shield LTE is quite good. The thing is that this tablet has two cameras. Frontal at 5 megapixels and normal - also at 5 megapixels. For modern equipment of this type, these are very good indicators.
In addition, you will have a great opportunity to watch movies and videos in Full-HD format. In truth, this is what many consumers, as well as avid gamers, are chasing after. What could be better than watching videos in excellent quality? Probably the only game with the same result. So if you buy an NVIDIA Shield Tablet, you won't regret it. Autofocus by the way.speaking, the camera also has. It helps to create high-quality and clear pictures. Just what many modern shoppers are looking for.
Communication
Another important selection criterion is nothing more than the connection provided for the tablet. Without it, you will not be able to transfer data, as well as download games and access the World Wide Web. This item has a special place in all gadgets.
Fortunately, the NVIDIA Shield Tablet LTE has quite good connectivity. This model supports GPRS, GPS, and Wi-Fi. But that's not all. There is also a connection 3G and "Bluetooth". Do not forget that modern models are equipped with a special ability to connect to a 4G network. It will provide you with high-quality Internet without any interruptions. In addition, in this case, you can use Android TV on NVIDIA Shield - a special application that, with the help of a good Internet, shows you TV programs based on Android. Helps well when trying to relax and distract.
In addition, in many tablets, when working with the network, various failures and malfunctions are often observed. But in the NVIDIA Shield Tablet, they practically do not occur. Only if the operating system is infected with various spyware and viruses. Fortunately, such cases are extremely rare. Therefore, you can be sure that no one and nothing will prevent you from using NVIDIA Shield Android TV, as well as other applications that use the Internet to function.
Size & Design
An important point when choosing a tablet (for some buyers) is the design of the product. And here you can include its size. Of course, since we have a real gaming tablet in front of us, we should immediately take into account that it will be far from small. Rather, moderately large.
The NVIDIA Shield Tablet has a stylish design. As a rule, there are two generally accepted color schemes that are bought most often. It's black and white. It is in these colors that you can find our today's tablet on store shelves. But not everyone likes such a banal color scheme. You always want to stand out in some way. And then a variety of removable panels for the device come to the rescue. They are not included in the kit, but you can easily find them in any hardware store. Here there are options with a print, and with different drawings, and with photographs. If you wish, you can create your own tablet design yourself. Get creative and see what happens.
With the size of the device, everything is more serious. It is quite large for its performance. The NVIDIA Shield is 221 mm long and 126 mm wide, but the thickness of this technique is not as huge as it might seem at first glance - only 9.2 mm. To be honest, now this is the average thickness of a modern smartphone. True, our tablet is also heavy. Its weight is 390 grams. In order to work normally behind such a "machine", it is best to use a special stand. It will hold the device and also notwill cause trouble with the game and the simultaneous fixation of the tablet in the same place.
Package
What is included in the kit for our today's gaming equipment? Let's start with the fact that the package bundle of the tablet is very good. She cannot but rejoice. Especially those who prefer to play. As a rule, the standard package includes instructions, a charger, and a USB cable for connecting to a computer and third-party equipment. But there is another small feature here.
Since we already have a gaming tablet, a stylus and, of course, a warranty card are attached to it to facilitate control. Many people think that there is nothing special in the package. Only this is not so at all. Indeed, in the box with the device you will find a special protective case, as well as a game joystick. It is suitable for a tablet, and for a computer, and for some consoles. So now you can definitely be sure that you have a real gaming tablet in front of you. So far, no similar model is known that offers a game joystick as standard.
It connects extremely easily. And the quality, as noted by many players, pleases. Especially if you decide to connect it to your computer and play something. Specifically, an arcade game.
Price tag
After the main characteristics, it is important to pay attention to the price tag of the device. No one wants to overpay for a low-quality product that can be found cheaper. True, sometimes people do it because of the big name. NVIDIAShield price is not particularly pleasing. As many buyers note, it could be reduced a little.
On average, you can get our current tablet model for about $400. If you take into account the package, as well as the quality that will be provided to you, then the price tag can still be understood. But if there weren't so many extras, the NVIDIA Shield Tablet wouldn't be worth the money.
Sometimes on sales you can find this tablet for about $200. But at this price, as a rule, the goods are offered outside of Russia. You will have to pay several times more for the delivery and transportation of your purchase. Therefore, it is better to come to terms with the initial cost of the gadget. In principle, according to many buyers, one can only say that they did not regret the money spent.
Overall impression
What do consumers generally think of our tablet today? Reviews about him, in truth, have become extremely common. And in general they are positive. Only here it is worth adding a little specifics. What is it about?
For example, many players claim that the NVIDIA Shield Tablet is a great tablet for gaming, not only because of the packaging and power. The list of main features usually put good image quality, "indestructibility", as well as long battery life without recharging. With active use, such a "machine" can serve you for 3 days without connecting to the network. Not every smartphone is now capable of this. In standby mode, NVIDIA can lie for approximately2 months without recharging.
Another plus for our tablet is its "life" qualities. As already noted, many claim that it is extremely difficult to "kill" this technique. In case of water ingress, simply wipe the device - it is equipped with reliable protection against overheating and humidity. And everything will work without interruption and with excellent quality. Also, the device survives drops well. Of course, it is better to place the tablet in a special protective case - it will protect the case from cracks and scratches. But the sensor is almost impossible to break, as many players say. Of course, if you throw an NVIDIA tablet from a height of 10 floors with the screen down onto bare asph alt, the device will break. But if you dropped it (dropped it out of your hands) on the floor, you can be sure that nothing bad and dangerous will happen.
Should I pay attention to this gaming tablet? Frankly speaking, yes. But no one has the right to force you to buy something. Take a good look at the model - maybe you can find a cheaper analogue. But if you're a true gamer, NVIDIA Shield Portable is made for you.
