On the occasion of Microsoft BUILD Conference underway at this time in Anaheim, California, the Redmond Company has distributed 5,000 tablets Samsung developers equipped with its own new operating system Windows 8. First impressions derived from a multitude of videos appeared online show a touch-friendly interface design completely new, at least for Microsoft.
One of the most important factors in the new UI, called Metro, is derived from the younger brother of Windows 8, Windows 7 Phone, and Live and consists of tiles. Live The tiles are rectangular or square boxes that serve as icons and viewer notifications relating to the application to which you refer.
The desktop and the classic interface in Windows 7 rimmarrà still available to users even if the form of application. The most nostalgic can still meet their needs and then finding the experience of using traditional operating system for PC world's most popular.
The two fundamental components of the new philosophy bound Metro-style interface can be identified in the two key words "touch" and "personalizazzione". As anticipated, in fact, the new UI has been designed and optimized to be used in complete mobility by accessing all that interested in you as quickly and easily as possible.
These two key changes seen since the login screen. To access the system the user can choose between three different options: the traditional password, a PIN, or a "picture password". This method involves the use of a photo in one of the galleries that will display all ' ignition and which will allow access as a result of the pressure points of the image of three previously established.
As anticipated, once you are logged in front of the home screen populated by a series of live brows able sliding tiles horizontally. Touching the display from the left edge towards the center can be accessed quickly open applications, while maintaining the same operation on the opposite side we access a kind of 'toolbar' within which were placed buttons that respond to commands Search, share, back to home, back and settings.
Similar to the use for the browser, the box for entering commands by touching the tablet is activated it from the bottom edge toward the center. Similarly they are also displayed at the open windows high above.
First impressions are good, the approach and the interface is completely renovated offering positive feedback. Judging by the video circulated on the net at this time also the fluidity and stability seem good but could be the result of specific, not low-level prototype distributed to developers. Microsoft's statements about it and let us hope, however, speak of specifications for the use of completely new OS for everyone.
