Yesterday, Nokia has officially released its first Android tablet, this is after Microsoft acquired Nokia launched the first devices with the Nokia LOGO, Nokia is also the initiator used in the Tablet directly published on the Internet for people to download, let us take a look at Android or Nokia interpretations.
This launcher is called z-Launcher, and even has its own website: zlauncher.com, the Launcher is now available for download in the Google Play, for user who does not have a built-in Google Play phone, you can access the zlauncher.com directly from the phone, use your own Google+ account login, login then you can download the APK file.
We install on Nexus and Dell Venue 8 5 z Launcher, for Venue without a Google service for 8, z Launcher can not play all of the functions and optimized models Nokia there is also very limited, Samsung S3/S4/S5, MOTO X/G, HTC only ONE and the Sony Z1, at Venue 8, z Launcher is not perfect, Often cannot search application as well as the collapse of the case, so this experience is mainly in the Nexus 5 above.
In the Nokia page, the initiator of the main operation method is to let the user write the first letters, then automatically search phone/Tablet all content, match, and then open, and the initiators will learn the dominant user behavior, constantly improve their search results.
For Nexus 5, which has a large 5-inch screen phone, this starter is very suitable for one-handed operation, because under normal grip, thumb can easily reach the top of the search results.
But for the tablet computer, z Launcher experiences are not so friendly, and I cannot use flat screen area, and most people are not one-handed operation of a 8~9-inch tablet.
Main interface very simple, below four a fixed application is cannot edit of (if flat no phone SMS function, so that ICON of location on will was blank), default for phone, and SMS, and browser and camera, middle for application drawer button, top Department can sliding view time, and calendar project and weather, click clock will opened clock APP, calendar is is opened calendar APP, click weather is refresh, but this weather option is not can free edit need displayed of area of, only through GPS positioning , And temperature units Fahrenheit degrees displayed no degree Celsius display, Nokia you dare wayward points.
This Application Launcher also has drawers, only find application is displayed for the list, and also encourages users to search directly use handwriting to find application approaches.
A search directly on the screen with his hands sliding hand-written, but sliding area at the top is not as handwritten trajectory starting point.
Only 6 search results can be displayed on each page, and if the results of these six there’s no APP that you need, so long continue a handwriting input until you see (Oh … … ), If input error, left to delete the last letter entered.
For handwriting recognition aspects, z Launcher do have also good, but for most people of writing digital 1 of habits, somewhat need adapted, 1 of entered method must is first Shang again Xia, directly down sliding is will was recognition for entered lowercase of English letters l, also, in entered capital of n, and r or Q this than a pen of English letters of when, hand speed must enough fast, if two a strokes Zhijian of interval too long, z Launcher will will put two a strokes separate recognition, This is a headache for new start people.
For search results, or you can choose to hide. solar chargers
Specific operation is visible below the GIF, if not please click the large image.
Overall, Nokia z Launcher maximum of advantage is to now increasingly big of phone provides a single hand operation of method, but consider to Nokia of this started device this is for himself of flat computer prepared of, so is is somewhat wants to not pass, can shortcut to search application natural is good things, but too simple of function, cannot added small parts, is will makes was can as productivity tool of flat computer of available sex greatly to reduced, after all, flat not phone, If the current Tablet desktop more and more feature-rich environment the reverse line, greater streamlining in functionality, such an approach is open to question. solar powered charger
Thankfully, Android is free to replace starter … …
