Sorry, don't mean to beat a dead horse but what's the best currently available Plex client all things considered?

I’ve had a Nvidia Shield, currently on Apple TV. Both are about equal, but the native app on the Shield is slightly better. On Apple TV I have some problems playing 4k content in the native app. However there’s a Plex client called Infuse that will play anything you throw at it.

I switched from Shield to ATV when one of the system upgrades half-broke Plex for months.

ATV is beautiful and foolproof, also much better at connecting to various Bluetooth accessories, but so limited software-wise (compared to sideloading non-TV optimized apps on Android TV).
