What "iPad" can't do, it can do the first experience of telecom magic screen.
What is the magic of telecom magic screen?
This magic screen can do many things, such as watching the news or listening to the radio at breakfast, playing cartoon audio books for children at home, making video calls to distant relatives, sitting under the covers watching movies or reading a few pages of e-books at night? These tasks, which once required several terminal devices, can now be completed with only one screen.
Telecom magic screen
Magic screen mTouch? For example, China Telecom is 20 10? Expo year? The first product is based on the high-bandwidth technology of China Telecom, which combines the advantages of mobile phone, TV and computer. Next, the author will experience the magic of this product by personally trying it out.
The appearance is fashionable and a little thick.
The magic screen uses an 8-inch touch screen, which is about the size of an ordinary netbook and about 4~5 cm thick. Interface control can be done through the touch screen. There are also operation buttons on the left side of the screen, which is convenient for users who are not used to using the touch screen.
Attach a stylus.

Compared with similar tablet computers, the size of the magic screen is not large, but the thickness is a bit large. If you keep it in your hand, it will be unbearable, so the most appropriate way is to put it on the table or on your lap.

There is a foldable bracket behind the magic screen itself, but there will also be a base through which we can put the magic screen more stably.

In terms of interface expansion, the magic screen supports external USB storage devices, in addition to microphone and earphone interfaces. In terms of power supply, you can use batteries or plug in alternating current.

After testing, the external USB interface can only be used to play pictures and music files.
Purpose: three applications meet the demand
According to the official telecom information, Magic Screen can provide five services to meet your various needs, but in fact, I think it can be divided into three categories: information, audio-visual entertainment and communication. Almost all of these can be found in the folding above, which is very convenient.
Magic screen home page display
It is easier to get information than surfing the internet.
First of all, talk about the information. We can get all kinds of information through the built-in function of the magic screen, such as the date, weather and other information closely related to life. Don't worry, these are all updated in real time. Then the main window in the middle is used to push hot information, for example, the hot spot now is of course the World Cup. You can view all the videos and messages related to the World Cup.
Customizable weather forecast
Information browsing interface
Information browsing interface
In the open information ocean of the Internet, although there is everything, not everyone can find what they want, so the customized information of the magic screen can give you the most popular information at present every time, eliminating the trouble of searching by yourself. Of course, it also integrates the information of big stations such as Sina News.
I also want to watch Sina news.
Maybe you're not satisfied and want to search for it yourself, that's no problem. The magic screen also provides a simple browser function, through which you can surf the Internet.
Have you noticed? Magic screen also has a soft keyboard.
Built-in browser opens web page
Although the magic screen supports browsing the web, the efficiency of this browser is really flattering, and the function is very simple, so it is still possible to use it to check text information. It is unrealistic to feel like a computer browser.
Uses: entertainment products for three major applications (1)
No one will refuse entertainment. Indeed, when the economic crisis caused the Great Depression of manufacturing in the world, only the entertainment industry stood out. Of course, the most important thing about the magic screen is entertainment. It allows you to do anything in bed, such as watching TV, movies, radio, music and e-books? Wait, the most terrible thing is that its resources are almost inexhaustible, because it has a network.
Application program interface of magic screen
On the functional interface, Magic Screen has a Widget interface similar to iPad, which means that these programs can be customized and expanded. Of course, telecommunications does not open this right to users, but how many families will really need it?
TV plays should be the favorite of every housewife. Through the magical screen, we can download the latest hit drama. You can see that there are hit dramas such as "Three Kingdoms" and "Elephant", which can be played as long as the touch screen is used. And the programs here will be updated in time.
Tv drama selection interface
Select the number of episodes to play, and there will be a preview on the right for easy selection.
Watch it in full screen!
With playback control
According to the author's observation, the video quality effect is good. Through the big speakers on the left and right sides of the magic screen, the sound effect is unexpectedly good, which is quite a bit like watching old TV. You can also adjust the width of the picture as needed. For example, you can scale down a picture without distorting it, as follows:
Television programs are also very rich.
Contains many TV channels.
Children's favorite cartoons are indispensable.
See, with the magic screen, you don't even have to grab the remote control with your family anymore. The magic screen is simply a hero who promotes family harmony.
Uses: Three major entertainment products (2)
Of course, your wife (mother) wants to watch TV, and you may want to read e-books and listen to the radio yourself. Don't worry, the magic screen also has it. The books in Magic Screen Library are still good, with 12 categories to meet the needs of different tastes.
The magic screen stack is quite big
Historical biographical books
Electronic book interface
Full screen browsing
It is quite convenient to use, and it is even easier to listen to the radio. The author tried it and found that the number of radio stations is amazing, almost all of which are FM stations all over the country, thanks to the network.
Good FM effect, clear and smooth.
Do you like listening to music? It is also very convenient to listen to songs with the magic screen, which is also the blessing of the Internet. There are a large number of music libraries for you to choose from, and a hot list will be given to you, so you don't have to bother to find them. And when listening to songs, I will still follow the lyrics.
Music playback with lyrics
What's left? Do you know any audio books? The magic screen and the popular children's educational and entertaining things are quite comprehensive, right? This is the advantage of customization, which is not enough. With this, you don't have to worry about reading stories to put your children to bed every day.
audiobook
There are not only audio books, but also pictures, so don't worry about putting the children to sleep.
In addition, such a large magic screen is also a good material for making digital photo frames, but the pictures can only be read through USB port.
You can read pictures and music through USB interface.
Usage: Call function
This is going to be said. What is there to talk about? Just making an IP call. Right, so we're not talking about pure voice calls, but the unique videophone of Magic Screen, right? Facetime
Can you see it on the front page? Talk? Button, click to enter the calling interface.
Call interface
It's more like the communication management interface of a mobile phone, see? Video phone? There are no buttons. Dial the number first, and then click it. Then you can see your little face from the side (the camera is in the middle above the magic screen).
Video call is in progress.
However, there are several points worth noting. First, it seems that this function can only be performed between magic screens. Secondly, it seems that this function of telecommunications has not been opened yet, so I can only look at my face to relieve boredom here.
In addition, the magic screen is preset with many practical telephone services, all of which are passed by one button without pressing one by one. However, it should be noted that some of these calls are charged, so it is best to investigate clearly before clicking.
Built-in multi-service telephone
Summary: User experience is the most important.
The trial time is not long, but I believe that most of the functions have been played and I have accumulated some trial experience. Let me briefly talk about it here.
First of all, because it is based on the network, the content of the magic screen can be said to be inexhaustible, similar to TV, but smaller and more convenient than TV. You can actively choose the programs you want to watch, just like a scaled-down TV+digital set-top box, or wireless. As far as the service and price it provides are concerned (tens of yuan more per month on the basis of IPTV), it is quite cost-effective and cost-effective.
Although the magic screen has many functions, it can not be separated from the three applications I mentioned. The interfaces involved in multimedia playback and information browsing are basically the same, and the UI of the program needs to be improved. In operation, the touch screen has a very general sense of operation, which requires a lot of effort to click, and fingers are easy to touch by mistake, so it will be much better to use a stylus. It also supports sliding gestures to turn pages, but it is far from the touch experience of Apple products.
Telecom magic screen
Generally speaking, the magic screen is not enough for a person who is addicted to computers and networks all day. I would prefer to choose a netbook. For ordinary home users, magic screen is undoubtedly the best platform between computer and TV. It draws lessons from the intersection of computer network and home applications, so that ordinary users can freely obtain entertainment content even if they don't know computers. Therefore, the author thinks this is a good thing for the family. I just hope that its system functions will be further enhanced and the program UI will be further improved. After all, for such products aimed at ordinary users, the user experience is the most important.
