New pricing takes effect today

The company confirmed the new cost is $299.99 for the Pro model. This change applies to units manufactured after the supply chain shifts caused by memory shortages.

Component costs drive the hike

A spokesperson stated that component prices, specifically for memory, have risen substantially across the industry. Nvidia sells every unit it currently produces without relying on old stockpiles.

Older non-Pro version is gone

The standard Shield model launched at a lower price but has since been discontinued. The Pro variant continues to run the Tegra X1+ processor despite its age.
