In the words of Microsoft CEO Ballmer, Windows 8 brings together the best personal computers and tablets in the world to work or play. Compared with the previous version, the most attractive aspect of Windows 8 is its further support for the touch function. For some high-end laptops with their own touch screens, using Windows 8 is naturally an upgrade. There are also technology experts who have modified laptops into touch screens suitable for Windows 8 themselves, but it doesn't matter if you don't know the technology. There is a special one called Touch 8 The touch pen (model: MVPen XN800) allows you to easily realize touch function on ordinary notebook.

Touch 8 is a touch pen launched by Yifang Digital at the just concluded High tech Fair, which is available on Taobao and Paipai. Love to play computer games We also got this product, let's have a look:

Touch 8 and laptop for testing:

The box contains a touch pen, a receiver, a data cable, a spare pen head, two small button batteries, double-sided adhesive tape, metal magnets and other accessories:

Pen and receiver. Two button batteries should be installed with the big end facing up as shown in the figure.

The best place to install the receiver is in the middle of the left side of the screen. First, stick the metal magnetic tape attached to the accessory bag on the computer frame with double-sided tape, and the receiver can be firmly attracted.

In order to ensure the accuracy, a contact calibration needs to be done first, and the position is in "Control Panel - Tablet PC Settings - Display - Calibration":

In the calibration interface, 16 points need to be calibrated as prompted for the first calibration, and only 4 points need to be calibrated for the second calibration. Pay attention to calibrate with your own customary angle during calibration, otherwise you may fail to reach the point due to angle problems during use.

Touch 8 can also be used as a mouse under the traditional Windows interface, including clicking, selecting, dragging, right clicking, double clicking, etc. However, to experience a touch like experience, it is better to use Metro's tile interface.

Using Touch 8 under the Metro UI can better simulate the touch operation function of fingers, but it feels that there will be a slight delay in the identification of contacts (about a few tenths of a second, sometimes it will be felt when the action is fast). Some faster operations, such as "closing the application from top to bottom", may sometimes lead to misjudgment, such as slowing down the pace and easily turning into clicking, It also took some time for the rhythm machine to find the rule. Another thing to note is that in order to ensure the accuracy of the contacts, the angle of the pen should be basically the same as the angle for correction.

Use Touch 8 to say hello to netizens who love computer games on Weibo!

There are also many touch games on the Windows 8 platform. Touch 8 can also be used smoothly. As for the impact of the above mentioned delay on the operation, we have specially chosen "fruit cutting" to test the game effect. The whole process is basically smooth, but the pomegranate cutting, which tests the hand speed, is stuck to a certain extent, Small computers can basically achieve 35+on the tablet, but only about 20 on the laptop.

In general, for those users who have upgraded Windows 8 but do not have the corresponding touch screen hardware, this Touch 8 can basically meet the needs of touch operation on ordinary computers. It is also suitable for users who want to taste new products or use ordinary products. However, if they are heavy touch users, they need a better touch experience, Maybe a special touch device is more suitable. In addition, Touch 8 can only support screens of 17 inches and below at present, while the mainstream display size of desktop computers has reached more than 19 inches. This model is basically only suitable for use on laptops. If you want to play watermelon cutting on desktop computers, you may want to hope for an upgraded version with higher power and larger screen.
