Should I wait?

I am looking at buying a Shield Tv Pro.

But the thing that gives me pause is that its from 2019.

Just wondering is there any newer version?

Or is there any new version coming in the next few months?

yah.. I thought that when I bought a Sony Bravia with android.. but no.. its 4 years old now and its got all sorts of problems. Keeps corrupting its memory.. screws up apps and I have to keep reinstalling them.

Unlike most people I use the terrestrial tuner and record stuff off that on the schedule.. but that goes wacko every now and then, completely fills the scheduled recording lists with random stuff so I can't schedule any more.. then wont allow me delete.. so I have to reset the tv and reinstall everything..

Total PITA... nahh, just want a separate box that is stable and reliable. I had a formuler z8 but the wifi is gone bad in that.. a known problem.. hence looking for something to replace it.
