Buying a Nvidia Shield

Hi guys, looking to buy nvidia shield here in Australia. What's the best website to buy it from and the cheapest? Only looking as media streamer so no gaming controller necessary. Thanks

    Buy it from Amazon.com.. Could come up to approximately AUD 240 and they deliver fast (I got mine in under 10 days during the Christmas period!)

      Cheers, thanks mate. I might just buy from there then. Just wondering though, are you happy with it btw?

      • Oh yes.. I got mine for $240 when it included the controller. I use it as a Plex Media server, playing PS1 & PS2 games on emulator, downloading torrents, stream PC games to TV, etc. Quality and powerful android box but maybe a little overkill for just media streaming. Have you considered the Xiaomi TV Box?

        • Thanks mate. Yes only looking for media streamer at the moment because I've tried other boxes and just sick of lag and slowness of them. I haven't tried mibox but I've heard its pretty glitchy so just want to spend a bit more and get something better.

        • @Groovyuvi: Ah yes.. I noticed the same on other android TV Boxes and the Sony Smart TVs. My 1 Month old Shield has not had any lags or slowdowns till date; super duper smooth. There were a few glitches but that was due to third party apps that I installed; closing and restarting them fixed the issue right away.

        • @Groovyuvi: FYI I had posted a Shield related forum topic of my own a while ago.. Would probably benefit you to read through it : https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/349552
