    This is probably one of the purchases I regret the most. First they updated it and put shitty banner ads in the launcher so I had to install a custom one to get round that. Then they disabled game stream which I’ll admit I only used a few times, but it was still one of the reasons I went with the shield over another device. And now this…

    I think when I replace it I’ll just get a mini PC instead

      You can still game stream with sunlight + moonlight. And the advantage is that it works with any brand GPU.

        I’ll have to give that a try! Is there noticeable input delay? With game stream it was fine even over WiFi

          Here is a 1440p 120fps HEVC example over wifi. Left screen is my PC. Analyzing it frame by frame it would guess a added delay of 16-32ms on my Galaxy Tab S7, idk how much of that is the response time of the tablet screen. Note this is without the low latency mode which I disabled because I had some frame pacing over wifi with it. image

          Im streaming over wifi and it says average encode latency 4-7ms depending on the day, but thats just what the software reports. I haven’t had any issues with it.
