+35 pts“Shield Pro is getting kinda slow IMO... I frequently get UI slowdowns and other bullshit from the android bloat... I just recently switched to an apple tv 4k - Everything on that is lightning fast. I would like to put in a full atmos setup though, and the apple doesn't pass through trueHD. Maybe by the time I get it done there will be something new that has the atmos truehd support... Come on apple, it shouldn't be that hard.”
