This one is more like a very advanced raspberry pi. It is a powerful computer in your pocket with network jacks, wifi, Bluetooth and HDMI. It can be used for network analysis, penetration testing, software development. What it will actually be used for: plugging into your TV to stream movies.

    There needs to be a new shield. I would like not to have to use apple or google and still get decent spec.and no ads

    Yeah I'd love to get away from my fire TV which has become a piece of adware shit over the last years. But I don't want to pay top dollar (150€ more or less, 230€ for the pro) for a shield with 7 years old hardware that doesn't even support AV1.

    I wish there were other decent options. The apple TV is also ancient hardware for today's price and I don't see much else on the market that isn't riddled with ads.
