Nvidia has issued a voluntary recall for its range of Shield tablets, after the firm discovered that the batteries used inside are a potential fire hazard.

To try to get a ballpark sense of what kind of revenue NVIDIA was able to generate from these sales, I’m going to assume that two-thirds of the devices sold were the $299 16 gigabyte model and the remaining third were the $399 model, implying an average selling price of $333. The SHIELD logo is on the back of the tablets.

“Launched in 2014 as the successor to the controller-console hybrid Nvidia Shield, the Shield Tablet packed the company’s Tegra K1 system-on-chip processor behind an 8” IPS Full HD display, and promised both the ability to run native Android software as well as Shield-optimised games while also streaming PC games from a desktop or laptop equipped with compatible GeForce graphics card. This would suggest that these devices contribute even less to gross profit dollars than they do to revenue dollars. No information is available on when affected users can expect their replacement slates to arrive. Customers will then receive a replacement tablet after registering to participate in the recall process.
