Windows 10: Windows 10 Tablet Mode

Hello All. I would like to talk about Microsoft’s direction for Tablet Mode for tablets and 2in1’s. I am still using an Alcatel Idol 4s with Windows 10 mobile as a pocket computer. Windows 10 mobile, IMHO, is probably the finest mobile OS that has ever been develped for those of us who are computer centric and also appreciate a tablet. The file system is light years ahead of the files app with iOS devices.

The Metro UI with live tiles, which was a poor fit for desktops and laptops, works wonderfully on a tablet and would be a perfect fit for Tablet Mode in Windows 10. Which brings me to the point of this discussion. The tablet mode in Win10 is not nearly as mobile friendly as iOS Ui and seems like merely an afterthought. MS seems to be moving toward a more “desktop like” Tablet Mode which makes absolutely no sense. Why have a tablet mode at all? feel that MS is missing the point of how a tablet is used. The Surface devices and 2in1’s would really shine with a Tablet Mode UI similar to Windows 10 Mobile UI. Does anyone else share these views?

:)
