The
Shield Tablet, later renamed to
Shield Tablet K1, is a
gaming tablet, developed by
Nvidia and released on July 29, 2014. This is Nvidia's second portable gaming device that uses
Android. Compared to the
Shield Portable, the controller is not permanently connected to the screen, rather it can be purchased separately. Up to four controllers can be wirelessly connected at the same time. While the Shield tablet features an 8-inch 1920x1200 pixel display, it can output
4K resolution signal to a television via HDMI.
