With a decent launch lineup, bundle, and advertising (especially the unique hybrid aspect), I really think this could do very well at $250. I really don't get how they're selling it at $250... Are they selling it at a loss after all those years of refusing to do that? |
Well, the Nvidia Shield Android TV basic model launched at $199.00 (with a controller included) and this is coming out almost two years later. So it looks to me like Nvidia found a way to make powerful enough chips at affordable price.
It is also worth noting that the Shield TV is already around half the power of the X1.
