Windows 10, and has been our experience after a month of use.
Let's know about windows 10 in details after a month use of it. |
A month ago I came to light a new and awaited Microsoft operating system. In our analysis of Windows 10 and we conducted a detailed examination of all the news, but on other occasions we wanted to consolidate our opinion on this development. The result is this:
How is the experience with Windows 10 after a month of use?
Given that we had been months with issues Technical Preview, the evolution of the system has been much less evident in recent weeks, but we are clearly talking of a final edition in which as we could endorse everything that we valued (and critiqued) the new operating system.
Hello again, mouse and keyboard
If anything highlights Windows 10 is the renewed commitment by the mouse and keyboard that is so appreciated on desktops and laptops. And watched as the Metro menu disappears almost completely -Appears, though in tablet mode as Start-menu and the classic desktop comeback and new visual elements.
Windows 10 after using a month |
The start menu is clear highlight of this new experience, but in my case use "with mouse" is minimal. The use of such animated tiles is very rare, but I think if you were using a laptop with touch screen size and easy access to these icons would make it more úsase. Lanzo programs beginning to write his name after pressing the Windows key, which was precisely also in Windows 8 / 8.1 and therefore made to me the presence of a pure start menu did not have much relevance.
In that experience of use I have taken increasingly several new options Windows 10. The possibility of linking up to four perfectly aligned windows even changing the vertical division is great for work on monitors large diagonal, let alone monitors UHD / 4K, but I could not verify it personally. I have not used only virtual desktops but pose a great solution to distribute tasks and better organize the work space.
The design inconsistencies yes, continue "chirriándome". Find more typical mobile phone or tablet visuals still missing me after a month of use. It occurs for example in the Activity Center, but also in the application of Configuration in which all cells activation and deactivation are formatted very own "switch" mobile devices, instead of simple radio buttons that seem more typical of desktop environments. One downside particularly noteworthy, perhaps not so much for me but for many users: hardly any desktop customization options.
Here Microsoft should enable users to change things like window colors and fonts to use. It would be particularly interesting to have some kind of system templates and themes that would make that experience could within certain parameters and requirements of visual language, of course- go more.
Getting used to Cortana, native applications
Cortana is after a month of using one of the most promising sections of this operating system. To perform various actions via voice commands you can reach greatly simplify access to these processes. One gets used to say things like "Hello Cortana, play my music," "Hello Cortana, launch Spotify" or "Hello Cortana, alarm set at 12 and a half" and obtain an efficient response.
That answer is not particularly fast-the immediacy should be an essential feature of this wizard, you left waiting a while to become curiously largos-, and would also be good to go expanding the range of orders available. For those who work or use the computer with the option of using the voice-and without seeming a little madman, this kind of interaction seems increasingly important. And more than it will be when it is integrated more and more in our mobile devices.
Native applications present in Windows 10 demonstrate the visual and functional capabilities of universal applications. In my case I just have not used any of them profusely. Microsoft Edge is a good example of what the company wants to achieve this renewed effort, and although the rendering of pages is quick and efficient, the lack of extensions and better management of markers make it uncomfortable for my use on the desktop . It seems like other native applications, especially oriented to tactile use. You win options in the coming months, sure, but today is as spartan browser that is difficult to surpass the popularity of Chrome or Firefox.
The other native applications also have that "tácil finish" that makes them potentially more attractive to users convertible notebooks with touch screens. Yes, I've used over the media player or Groove, while visualization tool and photo management is again an example of that interest in mobile devices that perhaps "sings" I saw him too on the desktop. Fortunately we have the traditional options of Windows in all sections, and it is difficult VLC or Picasa (in my case) are clear substitute those tools.
The problem affects the Control Panel and Configuration tool has become more mild. It is very strange to see how to get to certain preference you never know if it will end up in one or the other, but at least two coordinated work and what you can not make a solution so does the other. It is obviously recommended that all be centralized in a single tool, but one is just getting used to that annoying duality.
Closely related to these configuration tools system is the privacy issue that has given so much to talk about. Options to control what we share with Microsoft are there, so that we have access to all of them relatively easily. But there are perhaps too many options, and Microsoft certainly has not been entirely clear in its privacy policy. Also, it does not warned either that data collection was really necessary to use certain options. It is a sensitive issue and that since then the company might have had more success.
The hardware support is good but needs to be better
Windows users probably remember that every new operating system has been plagued by problems of compatibility with all types of devices and components. This is normal in a new edition that has to try to work well (or reasonably good) from the first moment with millions of possible hardware configurations. In my personal blog called this "the Microsoft miracle," and with good reason: to support one billion users, each of his father and his mother and with radically different configurations, it is no small feat.
The arrival of Windows 10 anticipates all kinds of problems, and it is true that in the user forums are critical support by the absence of certain components or the presence of conflicts with operating system features. Things are not easy in this direction, but in my case the experience was almost perfect with the Dell XPS 13 and my desktop PC (with a more or less "Average" setting) in which I installed Windows 10. Topics such as Stand backlit keyboard, the special keys on the portable or wireless keyboard and mouse desktop connection to a second monitor or sleep modes are correct.
The only downside is in my case in support of the Dell XPS touchpad 13. Windows 10 recognizes it as a touch panel accurately qualify, but its operation is still only discreet. It is a recognized problem among users of this laptop, but the fault is not so much of Dell, which has offered its renewed several times since it appeared this team- but Microsoft drivers, which is that through Windows 10 now controls more integration of the touch panel.
It is not acceptable for vertical scrolling with two fingers is a slight delay or that the movement does not have adequate travel and acceleration despite modify its configuration several times. Here again it is where the experience of the MacBook trackpads returns to win the game, and that the promise of Microsoft in this regard was very interesting. If the Dell touchpad meet specifications dictated by Microsoft for your system, ** why
What's coming in Windows 10
A month later the situation remains the same as for other important sections. The most important, the convergence: we are still awaiting that new smartphones Microsoft and the final version of Windows 10 for mobile appear, and that is when we can see if that promise which among other things is based on Continuum is met .
It will then also when the concept of this unique application store, which for now is not very striking, the truth with universal solutions that can install and use either a PC, a laptop, a phone, a tablet is consolidated, the Xbox One ..., and know more solutions. But that, of course, have to wait.
Other issues such as video games are also consolidated. If you have an Xbox One -that my case use the application of integrated Xbox Windows 10 is a joy. Able to play Xbox games via streaming One is a very interesting option, and it seems that Microsoft engineers working in reverse option. But there will be many more improvements in -game mixed multiplayer online games between PCs and consoles, for example also appreciate the arrival of a promising-at least in efficiency-DX12.
These are some of the things that we think are worth the wait, but the decision is yours, of course. Attention, because if you wear testing Windows 10 from the first day it was available and want to go back, you have a month to do so. If you have not convinced and want to return to Windows 8.1 There's a specific option in Settings- tool it is when you return to that issue.
In my case it is not necessary: I stay with Windows 10. The experience after a month of use is fantastic and especially promises for that room for improvement that exist in different sections. The base, what we have now, is as truly remarkable. Now we just hope for the best of Microsoft and see if he can prove whether the concept of convergence becomes reality as many expect.
