Isticmaalka Microsoft Display Dock

Naqshadeynta Goobta Bandhigga Microsoft^{(Microsoft Display Dock)} waa mid aad u fudud. Waa sanduuq madow oo ay ku yaalliin dekeddo badan iyo astaanta Microsoft . Waxay u egtahay mid wanaagsan, waxay dareemeysaa adag oo ay fududahay in la wareego. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, waxa ay leedahay xaddi aad u yar sidaas darteed waxaad u baahan tahay boorsada dhabarka. Haddii aad tixgeliso inaad sidoo kale u baahan tahay kumbuyuutar iyo jiir si aad u isticmaasho, waxaa jira waxyaabo aad u yar oo aad ku qaadan karto, oo ay weheliyaan taleefankaaga casriga ah iyo Microsoft Display Dock .

Maaddaama kani yahay nooca ugu horreeya ee Bandhigga Bandhigga^{(Display Dock)} , maaha mid qumman. Waxaa loo nashqadeeyay inta badan isticmaalayaasha ganacsiga ee raba in ay u dhex maraan gurigooda iyo xafiisyadooda ganacsiga. Si aad u isticmaasho Continuum on Windows 10 Mobile , waxaad isticmaali kartaa Bluetooth ama kiiboodhka USB iyo mouse laakiin waa inaad isticmaashaa isku xirka HDMI ama DisplayPort iyada oo loo marayo Display Dock si aad u hesho khibradda ugu fiican.

Taageerada Miracast -ka ee bandhigyada bilaa-waayirka ah ayaa jira laakiin hadda waa mid qaabaysan Windows 10 Mobile . Tusaale ahaan, kuma shaqaynayso Adapter-ka Bandhigga Wireless-^{(Wireless Display Adapter)} ka ee Microsoft . Sidaa darteed, haddii aad rabto inaad u isticmaasho Microsoft Lumia 950 iyo Lumia 950 XL sida PC, Microsoft Display Dock waa qasab inaad iibsato.

Intii aan tijaabinayay, waxaan ku xidhay kiiboodhka Razer BlackWidow , Razer DeathAdder 2013 mouse iyo bandhig Acer K272HUL 27 ".

Si aad u isticmaasho Microsoft Display Dock , marka hore waxaad u baahan tahay inaad ku xidho bandhiga, kiiboodhka iyo mouse-ka ka dibna aad bilawdo app Continuum on your Windows 10 Mobile smartphone.

Dejinta abkan waa mid degdeg ah oo fudud waana in aad bilawdo wakhti yar gudaheed. Dhawr ilbiriqsi gudahood waxaad heli doontaa sktop-ka Windows D oo aad ka garanayso PC-gaaga. Interface-ka adeegsaduhu wuxuu u shaqeeyaa si la mid ah PC-ga inkastoo Start Menu uu yahay muraayadda Shaashada Bilowga^{(Start Screen)} ee casrigaaga.

Dhammaan barnaamijyada mobilada ee ^(Mobile)Windows 10 waxay u egyihiin oo u shaqeeyaan si la mid ah kuwaaga Windows 10 PC. Waa inaadan wax dhib ah kala kulmin la qabsiga is dhexgalka isticmaalaha ee ka muuqda shaashadda.

Hawl-qabadyo badan ayaa jira laakiin ma aha hawl-qabad buuxa sida kombuyutarka desktop-ka. Taasi waa sababta oo ah Windows 10 Mobile wuxuu isticmaalaa apps casri ah oo loo sameeyay qaab dhismeedka ARM , ee ma aha barnaamijyada desktop-ka. Iyadoo aad si fudud u kala beddeli karto apps-ka, ma yeelan kartid inay u kala qaybiyaan shaashadda oo dhinacba dhinac ah waxaadna yeelan kartaa hal app oo keliya oo shaashadda lagu soo bandhigay, markiiba. Sidoo kale, ma heli kartid apps gadaal ka socda oo samaynaya wax qabadkooda, ilaa loo qorsheeyay inay u shaqeeyaan sidii abka asalka ah iyo adeegyada. Tusaale ahaan, ma dhagaysan kartid muusig YouTube , gudaha Microsoft Edge , marka aad qorayso dukumeenti Word ah. Taasi waa sababta oo ah Microsoft Edge waxay u baahan tahay inay noqoto daaqad firfircoon si loo ciyaaro YouTubemuuqaalo.

Khibrada isticmaaluhu waa mid wanaagsan, ugu yaraan marka la isticmaalayo Microsoft Display Dock oo leh Microsoft Lumia 950 . Furitaanka iyo xidhidhiyaha abka waxay u shaqeeyaan sida kombayutarkaaga oo kale nidaamka qalliinka guud ahaan aad buu u fudud yahay: waxaad ka baadhi kartaa bogag badan oo Microsoft Edge ah sidoo kale waxaad isticmaali kartaa astaamaha taleefanka Windows 10 Mobilka^(Mobile) , intaad sidoo kale u isticmaalayso PC ahaan. Si kastaba ha noqotee, marka aad furto dhowr apps isku mar, arrimuhu waxay bilaabaan inay xoogaa gaabis noqdaan mana kugula talineyno inaad isticmaasho wax ka badan 4 ama 5 apps markiiba. Waxaan abuurnay dukumeenti yar oo Word ah, soo bandhigid Microsoft PowerPoint ah, iimaylo jawaabeed iyo fariimo qoraal ah ( SMS ), ku ciyaarnay fiidiyowyo YouTube-ka^(YouTube), ku daawaday filimaan gaagaaban oo leh Filimada &^{(Movies & TV)} app-ka TV-ga oo sidoo kale ku qoray qayb weyn oo dib u eegista ah iyada oo la adeegsanayo Microsoft Display Dock . Waayo-aragnimadu way fiicnayd laakiin uma degdegin sida PC-ga dhabta ah ee wata darawalka SSD . Markaad u baahato inaad sameyso hawlo badan oo culus, Microsoft Display Dock wuu ku guuldareystaa inuu gaaban yahay oo waxaad dareemi doontaa baahida loo qabo isticmaalka PC dhab ah.

Waxaan qadarinay xaqiiqda ah in Microsoft Display Dock uu weli yahay mid qabow, xitaa ka dib muddada dheer ee isticmaalka. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, isku mid lama sheegi karo oo ku saabsan Microsoft Lumia 950 . Taleefanka casriga ah aad buu u kululaadaa, gaar ahaan marka aad hawlo badan qabato.

Mid ka mid ah dhinacyada aan ku riyaaqay ayaa ah xaqiiqda ah in cusbooneysiinta firmware-ka oo degdeg ah oo sahlan, xitaa isticmaalayaasha aan farsamo ahaan aad u wanaagsaneyn.

Qalabka Bandhigga Microsoft^{(Microsoft Display Dock)} iyo Windows 10 Continuum waa fikrado waaweyn. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, tani waa kaliya jidhkooda ugu horreeya oo waxay ka fog yihiin kuwa qumman. Waa kuwan waxa aan rumaysanahay in ay maqan tahay si ay run ahaantii waxtar u yeelato:

Maxaa maqan?

Si loo helo Windows 10 Continuum iyo Microsoft Display Dock si loogu isticmaalo cabbir ballaaran, Microsoft waxay u baahan tahay inay bixiso dhowr horumarin:

• Qiimaha ka yar^{(A smaller price)} - marka hore, qiimaha isticmaalka Windows 10 Continuum waa mid aad u sarreeya. Waa inaad maal gashataa talefannada casriga ah ee aadka qaaliga u ah sida Microsoft Lumia 950 iyo 950 XL oo aad si gaar ah u iibsatid Microsoft Display Dock, kaas oo qiimihiisu yahay 100 USD kale. Qiimaha lahaanshaha waa inuu ahaadaa mid hoose si loo wado korsashada.

• Taageerada taleefannada casriga ah ee la awoodi karo^{(Support for affordable smartphones)} - Waxaan garwaaqsanahay taas Windows 10 Continuum waxay u baahan tahay xoogaa awood farsameed ah si ay si habsami leh ugu shaqeyso. Laakiin, si loogu isticmaalo cabbir ballaadhan, taleefoonnada casriga ah ee ka jaban waxay u baahan yihiin inay taageero u fidiyaan Microsoft Display Dock iyo Continuum. Sifadan waa in aan loo sii hayn oo keliya kuwa qaaliga ah, qalabyada aadka u sarreeya ee leh Windows 10 Mobile.

• Barnaamijyo badan oo caalami ah^{(More universal apps)} - Waxaad ku isticmaali kartaa Continuum kaliya abka caalamiga ah ee Windows. Hadda, lambarkoodu waa yar yahay, badi abkaan waxaa sameeyay Microsoft. Haa, waxaad helaysaa dhammaan apps Office-ka, Skype iyo barnaamijyada kale ee Microsoft laakiin waxaad u baahan doontaa wax badan. Ilaa hadda, taleefankayga casriga ah, kaliya Facebook, Fitbit, Uber iyo TeamViewer ayaa lahaa apps caalami ah kuwaaso la shaqaynayay Continuum.

• Agabka^{(Accessories)} - qalabyo badan ayaa loo baahan yahay in la diyaariyo: kiiboodhka Bluetooth oo badan iyo jiirar iyo sidoo kale bandhigyo wireless ah. Ka waran in aad haysato shaashad bilaa-waayirka ah, cabirka kiniiniga 10-inji ah, oo leh taageerada Miracast, si aad ugu qaadato boorsadaada dhabarka, oo ay weheliso taleefankaaga casriga ah iyo Microsoft Display Dock? Taasi waxay kaa caawin doontaa inaad hesho xafiis mobilada dhabta ah. Hadda, Microsoft Display Dock waxay kugu qasbeysaa inaad hor fariisato miiska hortiisa, oo leh muuqaal casri ah oo ku xiran. Tani waxay xaddidaysaa dhaqdhaqaaqa isticmaalaha.

• Taageerada DVI^{(DVI support)} - isticmaaleyaal badan ayaa leh bandhigyo duug ah oo leh isku xirka DVI halkii ay ka ahaan lahaayeen HDMI ama DisplayPort. Waxay noqon kartaa fikrad wanaagsan in la bixiyo beddele DVI ah ee Microsoft Display Dock.

Haddii aad sidoo kale isticmaashay Dock-ga Bandhigga Microsoft^{(Microsoft Display Dock)} waxaan aad u xiisaynaa inaan barano waxyaalaha u baahan in la horumariyo, aragtidaada.

Xukun

The Microsoft Display Dock iyo Windows 10 Continuum waa fikrado aad u fiican laakiin sidoo kale aad bay qaali u yihiin. Waxaan aaminsanahay in Microsoft ay ku socoto shay iyo inay tahay inay sii maalgeliso horumarintooda. Dhawaan, waxa laga yaabaa in aan mustaqbal yeelano kaas oo aynaan u baahnayn PC-yada dareenka caadiga ah ee ereyga, kaliya taleefannada casriga ah ee ku xiran dhowr qalab oo caqli-gal ah. Bal qiyaas^(Imagine) in aad laptop-kaaga ku beddesho casrigaaga casriga ah! Waxay u egtahay mid soo jiidasho leh, in la yiraahdo ugu yaraan. Si kastaba ha noqotee, hadda, Microsoft waxay bixinaysaa kaliya nooca ugu horreeya ee fikraddan. Waa halkan, way shaqeysaa laakiin sidoo kale waxay leedahay cillado iyo daciifnimo kuwaas oo aan u oggolaan inay ku siiso beddelka saxda ah ee PC-gaaga. Haddii lagugu maalgeliyoNidaamka deegaanka ee Microsoft^(Microsoft) oo aad isticmaalayso qaar badan oo ka mid ah apps-kooda, ka dib Microsoft Display Dock ayaa si fiican u buuxinaya taleefankaaga cusub ee Microsoft Lumia 950 ama Lumia 950 XL. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, haddii aad isticmaasho apps kale oo badan kuwaas oo aan weli caalamiga ah apps Windows , laga yaabaa in aad rabto in aad sugto in muddo ah.

Microsoft Display Dock Review - The device that transforms your smartphone into a PC

You might not have heard about the Microsoft Display Dock bυt you surely heard about Windows 10 Mobile and the Microsoft Lumia 950 or 950 XL smartphоnes that were launched at the end of 2015. They аre the first hіgh-end smartphones with Windows 10 Mobile and the first smartphones that try to replace уoυr PC. What most people don't know is that, in order for these smartphones to offer you a PC-like experience, they need to be connected to the Mіcrosoft Display Dock. We managed to get our hаnds on this device and we used it fоr ѕeveral days. If you want to find out whether уour smartphone can trυly replace your PC, you should read this review:

Hardware specifications & packaging

The packaging used by Microsoft for its Display Dock is 100% recyclable and it looks similar to the packaging used for Lumia smartphones. On the front of the box you can see a picture of the device, connected to a smartphone, a keyboard and a monitor.

On the back of the box you can find details about its specifications and features.

When you open the box, you first see the Display Dock itself.

When you open it further, you'll also find a USB-C cable with a length of 100 cm (39.37 inches), the power supply and the user guide.

The Display Dock gets charged through a USB-C port and it offers connectivity to other devices, through the following ports: 1 HDMI port, 1 DisplayPort and 3 USB 2.0 ports.

In terms of size, the Microsoft Display Dock is not very big: it has a width and a length of 64.1 mm (2.52 inches), and a thickness of 25.6 mm (1 inch). The Display Dock is not that light, weighing 230 grams or 8.11 ounces.

The full set of specifications can be found here: Microsoft Display Dock Specifications.

Using the Microsoft Display Dock

The design of the Microsoft Display Dock is quite simple. It's a black box with lots of ports and the Microsoft logo on it. It looks good, it feels solid and it is easy to carry around. However, it has quite a few cables so you do need a backpack for it. If you take into consideration that you also need a keyboard and a mouse in order to use it, there's quite a bit of stuff to carry around with you, alongside your smartphone and the Microsoft Display Dock.

Since this is the first version of the Display Dock, it's not perfect. It was designed mostly for business users who want to carry it between their home and business offices. In order to use Continuum on Windows 10 Mobile, you can use a Bluetooth or a USB keyboard and mouse but you must use a n HDMI or DisplayPort connection through the Display Dock in order to get the best experience.

The Miracast support for wireless displays is there but it's sketchy for now in Windows 10 Mobile. For example, it doesn't work with Microsoft's own Wireless Display Adapter. Therefore, if you want to use your Microsoft Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL like a PC, the Microsoft Display Dock is a must buy.

During my testing, I hooked it up to a Razer BlackWidow keyboard, a Razer DeathAdder 2013 mouse and an Acer K272HUL 27" display.

In order to use the Microsoft Display Dock, you first need to connect the display, the keyboard and the mouse and then start the Continuum app on your Windows 10 Mobile smartphone.

Configuring this app is quick and easy and you should get started in no time. In just a couple of seconds you will have access to the Windows D esktop that you know from your PC. The user interface works just like on the PC even though the Start Menu is a clone of the Start Screen on your smartphone.

All the Windows 10 Mobile apps look and work the same as on your Windows 10 PC. You should have no troubles adapting to the user interface shown on the screen.

Multi-tasking is there but it's not full-multitasking like on a desktop PC. That's because Windows 10 Mobile uses modern apps that are made for the ARM architecture, not desktop apps. While you can easily switch between apps, you can't have them split the screen side by side and you can have only one app displayed on the screen, at a time. Also, you can't have apps running in background doing their thing, unless they were designed to work as background apps and services. For example, you can't listen to music on YouTube, in Microsoft Edge, while you write a Word document. That's because Microsoft Edge needs to be an active window in order to play YouTube videos.

The user experience is decent, at least when using the Microsoft Display Dock with a Microsoft Lumia 950. Opening and closing apps works just like on your PC and the operating system is generally snappy: you can browse multiple websites i n Microsoft Edge and also get to use the phone features in Windows 10 Mobile, while using it also as a PC. However, when you open several apps simultaneously, things start to get a bit slow and we don't recommend that you use more than 4 or 5 apps at a time. We created small Word documents, a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, answered e-mails and text messages (SMS), played videos on YouTube, watched short movies with the Movies & TV app and also wrote a large portion of this review using the Microsoft Display Dock. The experience was good but not as fast as on a real PC with an SSD drive. When you need to do serious multi-tasking, the Microsoft Display Dock fails short and you will feel the need for using a real PC.

We appreciated the fact that the Microsoft Display Dock remains cool, even after extended periods of use. However, the same can't be said about the Microsoft Lumia 950. The smartphone gets hot quite fast, especially when you multi-task.

One of the aspects that I have enjoyed is the fact that firmware updates and quick and easy, even for users that are not very technical.

The Microsoft Display Dock and Windows 10 Continuum are big ideas. However, this is only their first incarnation and they are far from perfect. Here's what we believe it's missing in order to be truly useful:

What's missing?

In order for Windows 10 Continuum and the Microsoft Display Dock to be used on a wide scale, Microsoft needs to provide several improvements:

• A smaller price - first of all, the cost of using Windows 10 Continuum is very high. You have to invest in very expensive smartphones like Microsoft Lumia 950 and 950 XL and also purchase the Microsoft Display Dock separately, which costs another 100 USD. The price of ownership should be lower in order to drive adoption.

• Support for affordable smartphones - I realize that Windows 10 Continuum needs quite a bit of processing power in order to work smoothly. But, in order to be used on a wide scale, cheaper smartphones need to provide support for the Microsoft Display Dock and Continuum. This feature shouldn't be reserved only for expensive, high-end devices with Windows 10 Mobile.

• More universal apps - You can use Continuum only with universal Windows apps. Right now, their number is small and most of these apps are made by Microsoft. Yes, you get all the Office apps, Skype and other Microsoft apps but you will need more. So far, on my smartphone, only Facebook, Fitbit, Uber and TeamViewer had universal apps which worked with Continuum.

• Accessories - more accessories need to be made available: more Bluetooth keyboards and mice as well as wireless displays. What about having a wireless screen, the size of a 10 inch tablet, with Miracast support, so that you can carry it in your backpack, alongside your smartphone and the Microsoft Display Dock? That would help you have a truly mobile office. Right now, the Microsoft Display Dock forces you to sit in front of a desk, with a modern display connected to it. This limits the user's mobility.

• DVI support - many users have older displays with DVI connections instead of HDMI or DisplayPort. It might be a good idea to provide a DVI converter for the Microsoft Display Dock.

If you have also used the Microsoft Display Dock we are curious to learn which are the things that need to be improved, in your view.

Verdict

The Microsoft Display Dock and Windows 10 Continuum are great ideas but they are also very expensive. We believe that Microsoft is on to something and that it should further invest into their development. Soon, we might have a future in which we no longer need PCs in the classic sense of the word, only smartphones that get connected to a couple of smart accessories. Imagine replacing your laptop with your smartphone! It sound s intriguing, to say the least. However, for now, Microsoft is offering only a pricey first version of this concept. It's here, it works but it also has bugs and weaknesses which don't allow it to provide you with a true replacement for your PC. If you are invested in Microsoft's ecosystem and you are using many of their apps, then the Microsoft Display Dock is a good complement to your new Microsoft Lumia 950 or Lumia 950 XL smartphone. However, if you use many other apps which are not yet universal Windows apps, you might want to wait a while.
