They’re pretty solid honestly. I chose a shield over one bc at the time I wanted some apps that required side loading, but now that I have an emby server that’s moot. The only thing I’m not a fan of is the touch remote, but they still have a remote app so I can just use my phone instead.
Also good to know! The only one I have much exposure to has that remote. I’m glad they came to their senses on the remote! I’ll definitely have to grab one when my shield kicks its bucket

you can still buy and use the classic remotes too! here’s the first one i found on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143752434103
Good to know the current boxes still work with the old remotes, thanks for sharing!
They switched from the touch remotes years ago. I have a 4k ATV and it has a physical directional pad.
