Buy it on Amazon - http://lon.tv/shield2015 (affiliate link) - The new Shield Tablet K1 has the same guts but a lower price vs. last year's offering. VIDEO INDEX: 0:02 - Hardware overview and comparison to last year's model 1:17 - 3DMark benchmark and comparisons 2:52 - Shield Cover demonstration 3:43 - Shield Hub and PC game selection for streaming 4:26 - Star Wars Battlefront streaming from PC 5:20 - Recording gameplay footage 5:37 - Footage samples of recorded gameplay 6:04 - HDMI and turning off mirroring to get full 1080 picture 6:39 - PSPPP emulator and streaming live to Twitch 8:16 - Conclusion and final thoughts I do recommend checking out my original review which will give a good overview of the SHIELD K1's performance with Android apps here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFKMj3L7Roc The new version performs the same as the previous version but comes without a stylus or charger and is now $100 less than the prior model. It sports the same K1 processor with 2 gigs of ram and the 8 inch 1920x1200 IPS display as the original model. In this video I detail some of the features I didn't cover in my initial review including PC game streaming, Twitch broadcasting, and display recording. What's amazing about the K1 chip is that it has remained top of class for over a year. That's almost unheard of in the mobile processor market so it's no wonder they went with a lower price point vs. a more powerful tablet.

  9. Hi Lon. Great Video but wanna discuss something. You know I'm not too worried about the new GeforeNow service (as its £7.49 each month which is a bit pricey for me and that my router is only single band and I heard if your router is not dual-band the lag/latency ia not as good) but my concern is the "other" Android-compatible games such as Doom 3, FIFA mobile (or FIFA16), Soul Calibur, etc. Any thoughts about this? And with Android-compatible games do I still have to map the controls or will the controller "sense" the game so you can play the game instantly? Do you use mirroring or the full console mode?
