A while back I heard some updates had messed up either the refresh rate switching or something and it wasn’t working well.
There were some issues around Rec 709 vs Rec 2020 a while back, but they were resolved. Frame rate switching within Kodi appears to still work well - though you don't get fully automatic frame rate switching on Streaming Apps like Netflix, Prime etc. outside of Kodi.
There are also some question marks about the Dolby Vision output being a bit 'off' on DV content. However - it does tick a lot of boxes for people, and has support for 4K DRM Streaming content that the otherwise excellent S922X and S905X3 AMLogic boxes running CoreElec don't.
At the moment I usually watch DRM streaming content on my Apple TV 4K, and use my S905X3/S922X boxes for Kodi (running CoreElec) - but I do fire up the Shield TV now and again.
