    What’s missing in the shield? I have a gen 1 and it still plays anything I throw at it. High bitrate HDR 4k video etc.

      Nothing is missing - but mine’s 5 years old and I want to make sure it can be replaced before it finally dies.

        Even first gen ones from 2015 are still being used. I don’t think these die all that often. They will be obsolete at some point, but even this takes far longer than with other tech. As long as you make sure it doesn’t overheat, it should last for a while longer.

          Yeah, I was surprised there were still lots of people using the 2015 version. It’s a good sign so hopefully mine will be good for a long while still.
