What has actually changed in Android TV, aside from more Google spying and an ad filled homescreen?
Auto low latency mode seems interesting, primarily if you use the ShieldTV as a Geforce Now or XCloud streaming game client. Of course your TV needs to support it, which basically means it has HDMI 2.1.
Other than that it's a completely boring update.
Bummer, I was much more looking forward to Android 12 with its refresh rate switching functionality being built into the OS
Hopefully we get that on Shield by next summer or something
Good to hear as I recently ordered the Shield TV Pro and waiting for it to reach me. But as others mentioned, except for a couple of improvements A11 doesn't seem to bring much to the device. A12 would have been great, but still happy that Nvidia is not ditching the updates because it's 2 years old.
I kinda hope they just skip straight to Android 12 and call it a day.
