turned out to be really interesting in terms of idea and concept,
never took off as the company had imagined. The GPU manufacturer is
back with a sequel, but with a different approach this time. The
Shield 2, or rather, the Nvidia Shield Tablet, is the company's latest
unbundled approach to portable gaming. Acknowledging the reality of
limited controller support in Android games and the need to cater to a
wider audience, the company has gone for a powerful tablet + gamepad
combo. The gamepad ships separately, but even standalone, the tablet
is plenty powerful and can interface with your current controller
setup if needed. Touting a 192 core desktop class Kepler GPU inside,
the Shield tablet surely has the potential to change mobile gaming,
but before we find out if that's true, here's an unboxing of the
retail package, with a quick rundown of the hardware and the software
-

The Shield tablet is a 8″ device with a full HD 1920×1200 resolution.
Consider it like a Nexus 7 2013 with a 8″ screen, because hardware
aside, the software is completely stock, without many modifications.
Following the precedence set by the Tegra Note, Nvidia has, yet again,
gone for stylus support on this tablet, which might be interesting for
people looking at it as an option.
The back and the sides are made of a soft touch rubbery material,
which again reminds us of the Nexus 7 2013, with the Shield branding
being the most obvious reason. Yet, the feel seems much better and the
overall build quality no lesser. We are interested to see what the
Tegra K1 chipset can do, with a 2.
