Are these tablets still being sold? I have literally found one online for £300 (on nvidia website they are £150) so I'm not paying double the price for it

Anyone from UK/EU (irony) know where I can get one of these from? I've tried many actual shops which are all out of stock. Everyone online out of stock also

Thanks in advance

Usually this means that they are coming out with a newer model.

Does the nVidia website have the tablet? If not then they are likely releasing a revised version sometime.

Also why do you want the nVidia shield tablet. I own two and although great tablets they have their problems. For example the mirror/console mode for the mini hdmi output is buggy with screen resolutions (screen gets cut off sometimes), the battery life for gaming is pretty bad for anything 3D and not an emulator, etc.

If you're using it as a business tablet, for notes/drawings, reading, and emulation then it's a great tablet I get like 10-14 hours on a charge for reading manga and 2-3 days standby when I set the CPU scheduler to low power mode. Gaming on it via the nVidia store games (PC titles) chews through the battery like nothing only lasting 3-5 hours. Emulators depending on which ones are not bad though.

Also if you want to be shisty like me, buy a tablet that was recalled. When you go online you input the serial number and they ship you a new tablet for free. Only problem is that they disable your old tablet via the serial number when you boot your new one, but luckly there are ways to bypass this. This is how I came into procession of 2 shield tablets.

Literally did the same thing haha.

Bought a kind of messed up one for $80 usd. and did a claim for a brand new one.

Kept both and put a custom OS on the first one to prevent NVIDIA from sending the killswitch update to it.
