在Surface Pro 3上将Surface Pro 4 Type Cover与指纹读取器配合使用

Using the Surface Pro 4 Type Cover with Fingerprint Reader on a Surface Pro 3
Last year in August I went and bought a Surface Pro 3 with my own money (it's not machine that work paid for) and I've been very happy with it. Now the Surface Pro 4 came out, and well, it's silly to upgrade for me when it's been just a year.
去年八月,我去了, 用我自己的钱购买了Surface Pro 3 (这不是 花钱买的机器),对此我感到非常满意。 现在,Surface Pro 4出现了,而且,仅仅一年的时间,对我来说升级是愚蠢的。

But. That Keyboard. The Surface Pro 4 has an all new Keyboard and Touch Pad.

但。 那个键盘。 Surface Pro 4具有全新的键盘和触摸板。

The Surface Pro 3 keyboard is good, to be clear, but the touchpad sucks. After I used it for a few months I called it out as sucking. It's usable, but it's not fun to use.

显而易见,Surface Pro 3键盘不错,但触摸板很烂。 用了几个月后,我称它为吮吸。 它是可用的,但使用起来并不有趣。

Turns out that you can get a Surface Pro 4 Type Cover keyboard and it works and fits perfectly on a Surface Pro 3. You can upgrade your Surface Pro 3 (and pretend it's a 4, which is what I'm doing) by just adding the new Keyboard.

事实证明,您可以获得Surface Pro 4 Type Cover键盘,它可以完美地与Surface Pro 3配合使用。您可以通过添加来升级Surface Pro 3(并假设它是4,这就是我正在做的事情)新的键盘。

指纹识别器 (Fingerprint Reader)

There's lots of new color Type Covers but the really interesting one is the Type Cover with Fingerprint Reader. Sadly, only available in Black, but it has an integrated Fingerprint Reader that lets you use the new "Windows Hello" login feature of Windows 10. Windows Hello means "using biometrics like fingerprints and faces and eye scanning to login to your computer."

很多新的彩色Type Covers,但真正有趣的是带指纹读取器Type Cover 。 令人遗憾的是,仅提供黑色版本,但它具有集成的指纹读取器,可让您使用Windows 10的新“ Windows Hello”登录功能。WindowsHello意味着“使用生物特征识别技术(例如指纹和面部以及眼睛扫描)登录到计算机”。

It works and it works great. There was an Oct 26th "Firmware Update" in Windows Update that gives you the drivers you'll need. A Firmware Update for a Surface is essentially a "driver pack." Run Windows Update and attach the keyboard and you're set.

它有效,而且效果很好。 Windows Update中有10月26日的“固件更新”,为您提供所需的驱动程序。 Surface的固件更新本质上是一个“驱动程序包”。 运行Windows Update并连接键盘,即可设置好。

Windows Hello for Fingerprints

You enroll as many fingers as you want in Sign-In Options and that's it. Now you log in with your fingerprint. Lovely.

您可以在“登录选项”中注册任意多个手指,仅此而已。 现在,您就可以使用指纹登录了。 可爱。

全新的键盘和触摸板 (All new keyboard and touchpad)

The picture before shows my original Surface Pro 3 Type Cover next to my new Surface Pro 4 Type Cover with Fingerprint Reader. First, the keyboard was already good on the Surface Pro 3, but it's just better on the 4. There are actual spaces between the keys, and you can see from the pic how the keys go even closer to the edge/bezel of the cover's surface. The keys are also slightly rearranged for the better. FN has been moved to the left, which makes sense, and a "context key" (which is effectively Shift-F10).

上图显示了我原来的Surface Pro 3类型保护套,紧靠带指纹读取器的新Surface Pro 4类型保护套。 首先,Surface Pro 3的键盘本来就不错,但4键盘上的键盘就更好了。按键之间有实际的间隔,您可以从图片中看到按键如何更靠近机盖的边缘/边框。表面。 按键也进行了稍微重新排列,以达到更好的效果。 FN已移至左侧(这很有意义)和一个“上下文键”(实际上是Shift-F10)。

Another nice touch is that the FN key now has a light. On SP3 you had no way to see if it was locked, and you had to FN-CapsLock to force it on, and would have no visual indicator.

另一个不错的感觉是FN键现在有一个指示灯。 在SP3上,您无法查看它是否已锁定,而您必须使用FN-CapsLock强制将其打开,并且没有视觉指示器。

Finally, the silly Share and Settings secondary functions for Function F7 and F8 are gone and there's now an actual PrtScn button. It's the little things.

最后,功能F7和F8愚蠢的共享和设置辅助功能消失了,现在有了一个实际的PrtScn按钮。 这是小事。

Now, to the touchpad. IT IS SO MUCH BETTER. It's actually usable. It's way larger (they say 40%) and it feels nicer. Before I always took another mouse with me because the SP3 touchpad was crippling. No longer. It's large enough for multi-finger gestures, including 3 and 4-finger taps. I'm still holding out for a "4 finger swipe" for Virtual Desktop switching, though.

现在,到触摸板。 真是太好了。 它实际上是可用的。 它更大(他们说40%),感觉更好。 因为SP3触摸板严重瘫痪,所以我之前总是随手拿另一只鼠标。 不再。 它足够大,可以进行多指手势,包括3指和4指轻击。 不过,我仍然坚持要进行虚拟桌面切换的“四指轻扫”。

One other subtlety that is worth pointing out...the fold. With the Surface Pro 3 Type Cover keyboard, when you fold it up to keep the Type Cover off the table, the fold makes it hard to press the "Start Button" on the screen because the keyboard butted right up against the screen. The Pro 4 Type Cover folds tighter and lower against the bottom bezel such that pressing icons in the taskbar and the Start button isn't a problem anymore. Subtle, but again, it's the little things.

值得一提的另一种微妙之处是……折叠。 使用Surface Pro 3 Type Cover键盘,将其向上折叠以使Type Cover远离桌面时,由于键盘紧贴屏幕,因此折痕使其难以按下屏幕上的“开始按钮”。 Pro 4 Type Cover可以折叠得更紧,更低,靠着底部挡板折叠,这样,按下任务栏中的图标和“开始”按钮就不再是问题了。 细微但又是小事。

I totally recommend this keyboard. It's given my Surface Pro 3 new life. It's the keyboard it should have always had.

我完全推荐这款键盘。 它给了我的Surface Pro 3新生活。 这是它应该一直拥有的键盘。
