NVIDIA SHIELD 8-Inch Tablets Being Recalled Due to Battery Fire Hazard

NVIDIA SHIELD 8-Inch Tablets Being Recalled Due to Battery Fire Hazard - News

by Jared Katz , posted on 31 July 2015 / 2,300 Views

NVIDA’s gaming tablet, the NVIDA SHIELD 8-inch tablet, is being recalled due to its battery being a potential fire hazard.

This recall affects all NVIDA Shield 8-inch tablets that were sold between June 2014 and July 2015.

The defect only impacts those tablets with a Y01 battery; if you have a B01 battery in your NVIDA SHIELD 8-inch tablet then your tablet should be fine. While the recall is voluntary, it is highly recommended that you send your tablet in for replacement if it does have the Y01 battery.
