[CES 2017] Back in December 2016, an image leaked out which showed the alleged new Nvidia SHIELD TV. Turns out the image of the device was spot on because at CES 2017, NVIDIA has officially announced their new SHIELD TV which they are boasting will support 4K HDR media streaming.

During the unveiling, it was also revealed that the new NVIDIA SHIELD TV will be the first Android TV device to support Google Assistant, a voice assistant platform that made its debut in the Google Home and subsequently found its way onto Google’s Pixel handsets. What this means is that if you don’t own the Home or Pixel phones, you’ll still be able to do the same things with the addition of being able to control your media playback using your voice.

There will be a companion accessory launched for the new device in the form of the NVIDIA Spot, a microphone accessory which pretty much offers similar functionality as the Amazon Echo Dot. Users can place the device around their home and have access to Google Assistant wherever they go.

Pricing of the new SHIELD TV is set at $200 and is already available for pre-order and will be shipping to customers this month. The NVIDIA Spot microphone accessory is sold separately for a price of $50.
