1
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:15,040
now this is something that might not be exciting to many general consumers but

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,039
for me personally since I often work on the go and I definitely appreciate the

3
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:23,640
value of multiple monitors I don't know if you guys have ever seen any of the

4
00:00:21,439 --> 00:00:28,400
videos where I'm in my office but in my office I have four monitors so one of

5
00:00:26,199 --> 00:00:35,280
the major disadvantages to me of working on a laptop is not having dual screens

6
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:38,559
because I can have a mouse I can have an

7
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:41,079
add-on keyboard but

8
00:00:38,559 --> 00:00:45,280
well excuse me sorry I can have a mouse and add-on keyboard isn't that easy but

9
00:00:43,239 --> 00:00:49,719
I can make myself fairly mobile and fairly comfortable except carding around

10
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:53,120
a monitor usually isn't really an option so here we have a monitor CD users guid

11
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:58,199
and installation files although I definitely recommend downloading the latest from Lenovo uh so yeah this is a

12
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,600
Lenovo product I should have mentioned that there's also a bit of

13
00:01:00,519 --> 00:01:06,560
quick start guide type thing going on here so we'll go through that when we

14
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:14,040
get a little bit more information about the product itself this looks like some

15
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:16,040
kind of a stand okay so there's a stand

16
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:21,240
it's got some instructions for how it might work don't forget the USB cable it

17
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:25,200
says okay we've also got the

18
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:29,520
aforementioned USB cable so this is a

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:31,079
dual USB a to single USB B and there's a

20
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:36,840
good reason for that which I'll cover in a moment or uh rather mini mini mini

21
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:42,240
yeah mini okay and finally we have the monitor itself

22
00:01:39,439 --> 00:01:47,880
so aha there we go so what is this for what

23
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:53,360
is a what is a monitor in this particular form factor good for you

24
00:01:50,680 --> 00:02:01,680
might ask and I would say that is a very good question let me go ahead and answer

25
00:01:56,719 --> 00:02:05,560
it for you so this is a secondary

26
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,719
display for your notebook that

27
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:12,160
connects hold on a second now I'm having trouble because I've got so many

28
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:19,400
accessories going on here that connects via USB it is not only USB powered but

29
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:23,360
it is also here you can adjust the uh the angle to be even with that stand on

30
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:30,519
the back to be even with the angle of your notebook but it is also USB a USB

31
00:02:27,239 --> 00:02:32,680
display so you don't need any kind of

32
00:02:30,519 --> 00:02:37,239
external output on your notebook whatsoever in fact if you do want output

33
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:42,120
to a projector or something like that at a meeting then you can still do that so

34
00:02:39,959 --> 00:02:45,680
that's why it has two USB ports one of them is for power although they aren't

35
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:53,400
labeled one of them is for power and one of them is for data so I'm going to go ahead and plug this in and plug this in

36
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:56,560
to the monitor itself so that goes in

37
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,640
right about there okay actually I should

38
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:02,680
give you guys a closer a closer look at actually give me a sec for convenience

39
00:03:00,519 --> 00:03:07,799
sake I actually did use the disc sorry guys uh basically the quick setup guide

40
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:12,319
is probably not even quite as simple as the actual process so you power on your

41
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:17,080
laptop they actually include that as a step you uh put the dis in the thing and

42
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:22,680
then you plug the USB things into the other USB things and then you adjust the

43
00:03:19,799 --> 00:03:25,760
brightness and that's pretty oh then you can put it away when you're done so I

44
00:03:24,519 --> 00:03:30,080
discovered a couple of other things while I was setting it up and one is

45
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:33,040
that the case for it so that's the case that you use to store the unit when

46
00:03:31,799 --> 00:03:37,040
you're transporting it to make sure the screen doesn't get damaged also has

47
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:41,480
little ridges right here which allow you to easily adjust the angle and have it

48
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,760
not accidentally slip out so it's rubber tipped plus there's a Groove there so it

49
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:51,239
is not going anywhere and I would suggest that it's probably usable even

50
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:55,560
without the actual uh the actual stand one of the other things that I did was I

51
00:03:52,959 --> 00:04:02,720
found out the resolution of the display so this is a 1366 by whatever that is so

52
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:04,920
13 66 X 768 widescreen display the

53
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:09,519
brightness is highly adjustable I apologize Windows is not genuine this is

54
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:14,239
not true it's genuine Windows well it's sort of true because it's genuine

55
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:16,560
Windows but it's um I change my Hardware

56
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:19,560
all the time which is technically not allowed but I'm not going to I mean I

57
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:24,199
just changed the SSD in here and that's why it deactivated so uh keep changes so

58
00:04:22,639 --> 00:04:27,400
here we go so we're set up it's pretty much that simple I can show you guys the

59
00:04:25,919 --> 00:04:31,360
brightness adjustments obviously something to bear

60
00:04:29,479 --> 00:04:34,600
in mind mind about this display so right about here uh obviously something to

61
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:39,600
bear in mind about this display is if you're running it off battery power it's going to significantly impact your

62
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:43,680
battery life because it runs not only the power for the display off USB but

63
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:48,880
also the data check that out you got a wide range of brightness options uh but

64
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:52,440
the increase in productivity is probably going to more than make up for it so in

65
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:58,120
case you guys don't know you can adjust it like this to make sure that your uh

66
00:04:55,759 --> 00:05:01,199
here we go just about like that to make sure that your mouse when you move it

67
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:05,759
over between the two displays doesn't take that huge leap of faith so how's

68
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:10,479
the responsiveness of it you can see that frame rate is not as good as it is

69
00:05:08,479 --> 00:05:17,960
over here because instead of using the GPU to accelerate the uh Windows effects

70
00:05:14,039 --> 00:05:20,759
we're using well just the slow data rate

71
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:25,240
here and uh and a USB Graphics controller so be bear that in mind as

72
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:29,840
well although for productivity it is awesome because I can throw this here I

73
00:05:27,639 --> 00:05:35,280
can you know go look at something here I can make notes over here I can adjust

74
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,479
this as I see fit in a very convenient

75
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:41,039
fashion this is a very cool product I'm just going to show you guys how simple

76
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:45,800
it is to disconnect so you do that your laptop

77
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:49,240
goes oh that's not connected anymore you fold up this back piece I mean the

78
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:53,160
tooling is exceptional as we've come to expect from anything made by Lenovo it's

79
00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:58,400
just outstanding like even though it's so thin it's about the thickness well

80
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,919
okay my iPhone comparison is no longer working now that I have this clunky

81
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:06,919
battery case on it but is about the thickness of an iPhone in the thin Parts

82
00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:12,240
just like that you can see that and uh but this this it has a very solid

83
00:06:09,599 --> 00:06:17,080
overall feel to it in spite of that so I'm going to go ahead and see if I can

84
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:22,520
figure out how this goes in here there we go just clamps in there like that

85
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:24,759
protects the front of it simply a cool

86
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:30,680
