Shields aren't in bedrock, yet. Java only. Currently the offhand slot is just used for maps. I kinda like this as it's like having a minimap. Personally, I don't see the point in shields. What do you need them for when you can take out a mob in one or two hits?
I'm surprised this has not been added yet considering the off-hand has a shield icon. I think it would be a waste of an inventory slot for the most part though. Really seems like it's only good for Skeleton arrows. I dont know how the shields hold up against guardians or blaze shots...or even Ghasts and Witches.

Shields are in the game. If they're not in your version, but the off-hand icon is available that is weird to say the least.

Really the only thing I've used them for is dealing with Skeletons while caving.
