Nvidia rolling out Android Pie to Shield TV with Upgrade 8.0

Nvidia this morning announced Android 9 Pie for the Nvidia Shield TV. Rumored for the past week, the Android TV box is getting the latest version with Shield Experience Upgrade 8.0. Notable highlights include a redesigned Settings menu and many improvements for third-party apps.



Android Pie adds a redesigned Settings menu to Android TV with updated colors and tweaked organization. Nvidia notes streamlined set up for new users, which might be useful following rumors that a revised device is in development.

Other improvements noted in releases notes include high-quality surround sound for the Netflix client and Amazon Prime Video in 4K resolution.
