Shield v Shield Pro as client only

Evening plexers,

My old fireTV seems to have finally given up the ghost here so I’m in the market for a new client and have basically whittled it down to the 2 shield models.

I can see the tube has some issues early in life, but seems to work totally fine now which begs the questions, is there any advantage (for me) if i am never going to use it as a server?

If you intend to play full, high bit rate, 4K Blu-ray remuxes, then the pro is still your safest option.

The tube has less ram and will always be constrained with, if nothing else, less ram for buffer.

Figured as much, got the pro yesterday and wish i’d done it sooner.
