New Nexus Player FCC Filing Spotted.

Maybe the Nexus Player isn't dead after all (refreshed model hits the FCC)

Personally speaking, I won't be getting one if that is released, for these big reasons:
  • No Card slot, I don't care to continue needing USB-OTG for everything.
  • No Ethernet, while it's understandable most is done wireless, it's better to have the wired option. To have a choice.
  • After my last Asus Support experience with a Nexus Player Game controller, I don't care to buy their brand again.
  • This is not anything beyond the previous Nexus Player, this is not like a new Nexus Phone/Tablet, with some leading edge spec and design updates. Nvidia Shield still seems the better play.
  • It does not seem Google is really trying to use this to challenge Fire TV. Google is really leaving Android TV up to others to make it great. And to be perfectly honest, the "others" are winning, Roku and Fire TV. Nvidia Shield does lead in the games department.
