This thread is for the 10 Mumsnetters who have been testing the Microsoft Lumia 735, Xbox One Console with Kinect and a Linx tablet.
Here’s what Microsoft’s marketing manager says, “As a marketing manager for Microsoft and mum of 2 boys, I know that things at home and at work can get pretty busy – especially this time of year with present buying, decorating the house, nativity play outfits, pantomimes……you know the rest :-). That is why we wanted to show you the collective power of some of these Microsoft products and how they can be used for the whole family. We would like to find families that can try out a Nokia Lumia phone, XBox One console and one of the new very affordable Linx tablets. All of these work together in a way that your family’s life can be fun and organised, productive and producing lots of laughs.”
Testers:
Once you’ve had the chance to try out all three products, please answer the questions below.
- What were your initial impressions and how did you find setting up the devices?
- Overall, what do you think of the following products? Do you like them? If so, why? If not, why not?
a. Microsoft Lumia 735
b. Xbox One console with Kinect
c. Linx tablet
- Who uses each of the products the most and what do they use them for?
- If it came up in conversation, do you think you would recommend the Microsoft Lumia, Xbox One with Kinect and LInx tablet? If so, why? If not, why not?
- Do you have a favourite aspect about any of the products? If so, what is it?
Microsoft would love to have some video clips of your thoughts about the products or seeing them in action. You can use your Microsoft Lumia to film this very easily. If you choose to do this you can upload your clips onto YouTube and please post the link to the film on the thread.
Microsoft has made these products to sync up together allowing a more inclusive experience.
To ensure the Mumsnetters got the most out of the products, Mumsnetters attended an event at Microsoft’s offices in London.
From this event Microsoft would like to know:
- Did you find this event useful for outlining the various opportunities offered by the products both as individual devices and collectively? If so, why? If not, why not?
- Do you think the products work well together? If so, why? If not, why not?
If you complete your feedback as above you will be able to keep the products you were sent.
Thanks,
