The fact that Shield is already a consumer-ready device means that novice users should have almost no trouble getting Plex up and running. When done, it'll appear as a tile on the Android TV home screen, a single button press away from launching you into one of the smartest media products available. If your library expands well beyond the Pro's 500GB of built-in storage, then you can expand it either on the network or via USB. Not to mention, of course, that the box can support 4K video at 60fps, making it ideal for users who want to future-proof their video libraries. Plex, on its website, adds that it'll try to bring Server to other standalone boxes, but points out that Shield's powerful internals sets it apart from other gear in this class.
