What kind of device will shine with Windows 8?

With the exit of the traditional mouse-and-keyboard model, Windows 8 opens the door to many new devices, retooling for old devices. But which one will work best?

The user interface of Windows 8 operating system was started on the Zune player, complete on Windows Phone 7 products and will now be included in the PC. The capabilities of Windows 8 show that the best products for this operating system will have a different configuration than those designed for previous Windows versions.

Initially, new Windows 8 products will likely compete with Apple products (especially the iPad) or look like many existing Windows products. Maybe in the next 24 months there will appear another layer of Windows 8 products.

All-in-one computer (AIO)

You will think that AIO is perfect for Windows 8. True, except for one important thing: the popular AIO screen size is now 27-inches. With this size, the use of the touchpad is more convenient than the touch screen because you won't have to lean forward, reaching the farthest point on the screen.

And the fingerprint problem left on the screen is equally annoying. Therefore, for monitors from 20-inch or less, touch is good, but from 25-inch or more, using the touchpad is better (the touchpad also saves you money because it's cheaper). However, neither the touch screen nor the touchpad are ideal.

Look forward to a Kinect AIO product to balance the touch experience and the ability to sit comfortably in a chair, interact with the machine without touching the screen. In theory, the Kinect interface can work on a multi-monitor desktop regardless of whether you use the desktop or AIO.

Laptop

Maybe the touchscreen laptop will run with Windows 8. However, you'll want it to be lighter, and over time, you'll still want a good touchpad. In fact you may find that the touchpad is more important than the touch screen for things like cut / paste because the operation is much easier.

Another problem is balance. Some laptops have an unbalanced weight between the touch screen and the body / keyboard. Because the touch screen is usually heavier, the laptop is more likely to fall over when you press the screen.

Bigger is usually better. If you really want to use the touch screen, you'll probably prefer a 15-17-inch screen in full-touch mode than a 13.3-inch and smaller screen. Some people are talking about Kinect on laptops, but it doesn't seem possible at the moment because there are many technical limitations.

Tablet

Applications that are familiar to PC users such as Office, for example, when running on a Windows 8 10-inch 11-inch screen seem a bit inconvenient because of the small screen size. That's why some original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are talking about creating 15-inch to 20-inch tablets.

The tablet will be even more interesting with the size of the table (these tablets will not be released yet, not to mention the high price). That means you should choose a tablet with an 11.6-inch or larger screen, and stay away from the tablet with a 10-inch or smaller screen.

Hybrid device and convertible

Hybrid devices are tablets, but when installed into a dock, the keyboard becomes a laptop. The convertible device is a type of laptop that allows the folding screen to be rotated on the keyboard to be used as a tablet. Users often dislike laptops under 13.3-inch in size, or tablets over 10-inches. Your choice will depend on how you want to use the product.

Hybrid devices are best suited for those who want to use a tablet a lot and occasionally use a keyboard (because you can remove it). Switching equipment is suitable for people who regularly use laptops but sometimes want a tablet.
Windows To Go

Windows to Go is a unique feature of Windows 8 Enterprise version, allowing users to create a copy of Windows on a removable storage device such as USB, external hard disk to run directly on Windows-powered computers. 8. Windows To Go brings you perfect mobility, because important files are always with you regardless of network connection.

Conclude

Windows 8 forewarned a new PC class using new unique interfaces such as Kinect, or ultrabook hybrid tablets, and they will be more flexible than ever. In the short term, if you don't trust the changes in Windows 8 yet, wait until you see what kind of hardware is right for you.
