We created small Word documents, a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, answered e-mails and text messages (SMS), played videos on YouTube, watched short movies with the Movies & TV app and also wrote a large portion of this review using the Microsoft Display Dock. However, when you open several apps simultaneously, things start to get a bit slow and we don't recommend that you use more than 4 or 5 apps at a time. Opening and closing apps works just like on your PC and the operating system is generally snappy: you can browse multiple websites i n Microsoft Edge and also get to use the phone features in Windows 10 Mobile, while using it also as a PC. The user experience is decent, at least when using the Microsoft Display Dock with a Microsoft Lumia 950. That's because Microsoft Edge needs to be an active window in order to play YouTube videos. For example, you can't listen to music on YouTube, in Microsoft Edge, while you write a Word document. Also, you can't have apps running in background doing their thing, unless they were designed to work as background apps and services. While you can easily switch between apps, you can't have them split the screen side by side and you can have only one app displayed on the screen, at a time. That's because Windows 10 Mobile uses modern apps that are made for the ARM architecture, not desktop apps.

Multi-tasking is there but it's not full-multitasking like on a desktop PC. You should have no troubles adapting to the user interface shown on the screen. Microsoft Display Dock, Windows 10 Mobile, Continuum, Lumia, smartphone, reviewĪll the Windows 10 Mobile apps look and work the same as on your Windows 10 PC.
