The nvidia tablet is still king of the tablet hill, despite its age. When the new one is released, I'm buying two.

  I had the first 1, and managed to turn that into 4 through two recalls (all basically cosmetic flaws) that have all at this point died. one was killswitched, recovered and killswitched again and bricked. one is stuck in a bootloop after a cm10->cm11 auto upgrade. the other two's batteries failed and i soldered usb cables in their place and they have a second life in the back of my electric junk drawer. I thought about buying a k1 tablet, but i really couldn't justify it as i have a one plus 3 that does almost everything a tablet did. and i can make calls on it and not feel like a goober. i don't think there's another tablet in the pipe: http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/08/11/rumored-follow-nvidia-shield-tablet-k1-cancelled/ http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/08/11/rumored-follow-nvidi... I have the first shield tv and its awesome. I use the g-force now service to stream witcher 3. I love streaming games. I used on-live back in the day, and was bummed when it failed. I lost like 10 games. I did here that nvidia had a lot to do with the nintendo switch, but i don't care enough to vet that rumor, so i will jsut spread it anyway.

  The reason it is king is because Nvidia has basically pulled an Apple. Same internals have been supported from 5.0 all the way to 7.0. This while most tablets barely have been supported within a single own major version.
