Nvidia Shields Up: Price Hike Sparks Concern Over Component Costs
Nvidia's Shield TV Pro has seen a significant price increase of $100. The device, which was originally launched at $199.99 in 2015, is now listed on Nvidia's website for $299.99. This sudden change comes without any major hardware refresh to the device.
The company attributes this price hike to rising component costs driven by AI demands. With no alternative models available, consumers are left with a $100 increase on an unchanged product.
Nvidia has also announced that it will be discontinuing its entry-level Shield TV due to escalating component prices.
