It's a shame none of them are USB3, but at least you get one which doubles up as a charging port, so you could power another device such as a tablet or battery pack while you work. Bluetooth is also available if you want to cut down on wires. In addition to its two display outputs, the Display Dock also has three USB2 ports for a wired mouse and keyboard. Even better, you can still use your phone while it's connected to the Display Dock, meaning you don't have to stop what you're doing to answer a call or reply to a text.
Once you've connected the 950 or 950 XL to the Display Dock, you can then plug it in to an external monitor via its HDMI or DisplayPort output and run a full PC-like desktop experience using the hardware inside your smartphone, allowing you to use fullscreen apps like Outlook, Office, Edge and Maps without the need for a PC or laptop. It's highly likely that future Lumia handsets will also come with Continuum support. Sadly, the Display Dock isn't compatible with any existing, older Lumia phones. Now, we've finally had a chance to test Microsoft's official Display Dock, the optional £80 adaptor you'll need to use Windows 10 Mobile's biggest and most exciting feature, Continuum, which effectively turns your smartphone into a portable PC.Īt the moment, Continuum only works on the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL, as it requires USB Type-C to connect your phone to the Display Dock (a cable is supplied for this). Last month, we got to grips with Windows 10 Mobile and all of its brand-new features, from its universal apps to Microsoft's new eye-scanning security software, Microsoft Hello.
