00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:15.040
now this is something that might not be exciting to many general consumers but

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:20.039
for me personally since I often work on the go and I definitely appreciate the

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

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

00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:35.280
the major disadvantages to me of working on a laptop is not having dual screens

00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:38.559
because I can have a mouse I can have an

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:41.079
add-on keyboard but

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

00:00:43.239 --> 00:00:49.719
I can make myself fairly mobile and fairly comfortable except carding around

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

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

00:00:56.800 --> 00:01:02.600
Lenovo product I should have mentioned that there's also a bit of

00:01:00.519 --> 00:01:06.560
quick start guide type thing going on here so we'll go through that when we

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:14.040
get a little bit more information about the product itself this looks like some

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:16.040
kind of a stand okay so there's a stand

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

00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:25.200
says okay we've also got the

00:01:21.240 --> 00:01:29.520
aforementioned USB cable so this is a

00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:31.079
dual USB a to single USB B and there's a

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

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:42.240
yeah mini okay and finally we have the monitor itself

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:47.880
so aha there we go so what is this for what

00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:53.360
is a what is a monitor in this particular form factor good for you

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

00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:05.560
it for you so this is a secondary

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:07.719
display for your notebook that

00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:12.160
connects hold on a second now I'm having trouble because I've got so many

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:19.400
accessories going on here that connects via USB it is not only USB powered but

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

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

00:02:27.239 --> 00:02:32.680
display so you don't need any kind of

00:02:30.519 --> 00:02:37.239
external output on your notebook whatsoever in fact if you do want output

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

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

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

00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:56.560
to the monitor itself so that goes in

00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:58.640
right about there okay actually I should

00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:02.680
give you guys a closer a closer look at actually give me a sec for convenience

00:03:00.519 --> 00:03:07.799
sake I actually did use the disc sorry guys uh basically the quick setup guide

00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:12.319
is probably not even quite as simple as the actual process so you power on your

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

00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:22.680
then you plug the USB things into the other USB things and then you adjust the

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

00:03:24.519 --> 00:03:30.080
discovered a couple of other things while I was setting it up and one is

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

00:03:31.799 --> 00:03:37.040
you're transporting it to make sure the screen doesn't get damaged also has

00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:41.480
little ridges right here which allow you to easily adjust the angle and have it

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

00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:51.239
is not going anywhere and I would suggest that it's probably usable even

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

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

00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:04.920
13 66 X 768 widescreen display the

00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:09.519
brightness is highly adjustable I apologize Windows is not genuine this is

00:04:07.040 --> 00:04:14.239
not true it's genuine Windows well it's sort of true because it's genuine

00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:16.560
Windows but it's um I change my Hardware

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

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

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

00:04:25.919 --> 00:04:31.360
brightness adjustments obviously something to bear

00:04:29.479 --> 00:04:34.600
in mind mind about this display so right about here uh obviously something to

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

00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:43.680
battery life because it runs not only the power for the display off USB but

00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:48.880
also the data check that out you got a wide range of brightness options uh but

00:04:46.400 --> 00:04:52.440
the increase in productivity is probably going to more than make up for it so in

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

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

00:04:59.320 --> 00:05:05.759
over between the two displays doesn't take that huge leap of faith so how's

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

00:05:08.479 --> 00:05:17.960
over here because instead of using the GPU to accelerate the uh Windows effects

00:05:14.039 --> 00:05:20.759
we're using well just the slow data rate

00:05:17.960 --> 00:05:25.240
here and uh and a USB Graphics controller so be bear that in mind as

00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:29.840
well although for productivity it is awesome because I can throw this here I

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

00:05:32.080 --> 00:05:37.479
this as I see fit in a very convenient

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

00:05:39.280 --> 00:05:45.800
it is to disconnect so you do that your laptop

00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:49.240
goes oh that's not connected anymore you fold up this back piece I mean the

00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:53.160
tooling is exceptional as we've come to expect from anything made by Lenovo it's

00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:58.400
just outstanding like even though it's so thin it's about the thickness well

00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:01.919
okay my iPhone comparison is no longer working now that I have this clunky

00:05:59.960 --> 00:06:06.919
battery case on it but is about the thickness of an iPhone in the thin Parts

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

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

00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:22.520
figure out how this goes in here there we go just clamps in there like that

00:06:18.960 --> 00:06:24.759
protects the front of it simply a cool

00:06:22.520 --> 00:06:30.680
