Yes, but one benefit of the Shield over other android based devices is that it’s pretty hackable. You can replace the launcher and get rid of the ads and while it’s more than a single click to do that it’s easy enough by following a guide.

On my older shield that had the older launcher without ads I disabled updates for the launcher and reset it to its original version all through the normal settings interface.

I tried doing the same with a FireTV without success, Amazon forces you to use their launcher unless you’re willing to put in substantial effort.

He paid 44B plus the cost of this sink all for a sinked (sic) cost fallacy.

Thank you, I’ll be here all week.
