sent Pei Ying away, and Wu Tao also knew that Deng Fang was in a mood.

But he didn't take it to heart.

As long as Deng Fang didn't focus his energy and attention on those senseless rejections and struggles, then it didn't matter whether he came to him or not.

What's more, go directly to Qihua Electronics to find Yang Ge, and at the same time find the problem, you can also directly study the best solution.

Wouldn't it be better?

Anyway, it's okay to let Wu Tao give a solution, but it's hard to say whether it's the best or not.

Putting this matter down, Wu Tao looked at the recent imaginations and speculations on the Internet about the new generation of mobile phones, among which the multi-touch capacitive screen has been included.

And the new model previously revealed by Nokia is still not a full screen, but a half screen.

Because Nokia believes that the design experience and many patents of the full keyboard and the nine-square grid physical keyboard are one of the advantages of Nokia itself, it is a pity to lose it like this.

Well, that's what it means to be swaying from side to side.

If you are reluctant to lose the keyboard, then why sign a cooperation agreement with Yuanqi Technology?

This old Yoma is getting more and more confused.

But then again, Nokia's technical confidence in its own physical keyboard reminded Wu Tao.

For the first time, a multi-touch capacitive screen was used to eliminate most of the physical buttons, and in fact, the requirements for virtual buttons and menu design were extremely high.

At this point, Wu Tao felt that he was faintly neglected.

I touched the glory S1 prototype and looked at it,The left and right side buttons,It's no different from the impression,Volume plus or minus key and power button。

As for the keyboard on the front, it turned out to be a home button, plus the design of the four arrow keys on the left and right.

The four arrow keys, while working with the home button, also have other operating functions.

This is a bit different from the impression of a design with a maximum of three keys.

Obviously, this design is redundant.

However, Wu Tao combined with the operation of the PALM system, and found that the design of the five-button mode is inextricably linked with the mobile phone system.

At the same time, in terms of operating habits, it basically continues the style of non-touch screen mobile phones.

This is a bit of a lack of innovation.

Wu Tao was about to call Leng Ning to discuss and discuss, but the phone on the table rang, and when he picked it up, it was Leng Ning's phone.

"Boss, Deng Fang ......"

"Don't talk about it yet, come to my office right now. ”

This fiery tone almost made Leng Ning think that he was burned.

But after all, she grew up under the spur of her own boss, and her psychological endurance is no longer at the same level as that of a fledgling person like Deng Fang.

Pushing open the door of the president's office, Leng Ning looked at it, and his boss was burying his head in drawing something, not like he was angry.

At that time, I put down half of my heart, walked a few steps, and rushed to the desk, "Boss, Deng Fang didn't come to you, but went directly to Qihua Electronics, also to find a better solution." Don't ...... you"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Tao, who raised his head: "In your heart, boss, is my belly as small as Deng Fang?"

"No, it's not ......" Leng Ning waved his hand again and again, and he had to explain something.

was directly changed by Wu Tao and said: "Look at this." ”

Leng Ning looked at the paper in front of him, there were two sketches.

One is a schematic diagram of three physical buttons, and the other is a schematic diagram of a single circular button.

"Boss, is this the new mobile phone button layout you designed?" Leng Ning asked while pondering: "But three buttons are not enough, and as for this single round button, it is even more useless, right?"

Wu Tao did not deny it: "With the cooperation of the current PALM system, it is indeed unusable. However, if our PALM system can be updated and upgraded, it will evolve from the original text menu type operation method to the graph element menu type method. ”

“...... Reversing the user's habit from text operation to element operation can not only simplify the keyboard layout, but also reduce the threshold of mobile phone users, which is equivalent to expanding the target market of mobile phones in disguise. ”

Leng Ning's eyes lit up when he said this, "If that's the case, it's definitely a subversive design." Boss, you're too far ahead of your time, aren't you?"

Wu Tao touched his head, if he hadn't been too nervous by the anti-African action for more than half a year, these design concepts would have been thrown out a long time ago, why wait until now?

Of course, I can't say that.

However, Wu Tao didn't speak, and Leng Ning didn't think it was too strange, but carefully figured out the difference between the three-button operation and the five-button operation.

"Boss, this up and down button is replaced by swiping the screen, I've already thought of it. But how to replace the left and right buttons, your return and menu keys, can you use the left and right buttons?"

Wu Tao pointed to the manuscript paper and explained: "First, the left and right buttons in the same screen can be directly touched, which is not needed; second, the left and right buttons across the screen need to be jumped across the screen, and the PALM system needs to provide a multi-screen operation interface, and the left and right buttons are replaced by left and right swipes, so that the efficiency of swiping is even higher than operating the home button and the left and right buttons." ”

Leng Ning frowned and pulled a few strokes on his palm, almost one point.

"That's right, although it's not very customary to operate like this, it's really faster and more convenient. However, the boss, the centralized display of a large number of pixels has a big impact on the current screen power consumption and the load of the mobile phone CPU. So at this point, we need to think carefully. ”

It is right to be cautious.

Wu Tao nodded, after all, he proposed this concept a few days earlier, so he put his hands together and said: "In this way, you first register the relevant patents, and then you have to start two sets of layout patents." ”

"Okay. Leng Ning nodded.

Wu Tao continued with a deep groan: "In addition, if the comprehensive graphical development of the PALM system cannot keep up with this year's product release, then make some improvements in this direction first. There is also PALM's multitasking, which must be reflected in our new generation of smartphones that focus on smartphones this year. ”

"At this point, today's Honor S1 prototype is not doing well. For example, when I was browsing the intranet, I was interrupted by a phone call, and when I returned to the intranet, the page was not the same as before. Not only does this aspect affect the experience, but it also doesn't feel like it's multitasking. ”

Leng Ning immediately understood: "That is to say, before and after the switch of different functional modules, the context must be saved, and when the switch back, the recovery speed must be fast." ”

Wu Tao nodded, "It's good that you know." In short, the PALM mobile phone operating system, with the new element of multi-touch capacitive screen, still has a lot to improve. I didn't mention it at these meetings, because this is your business, not Deng Fang's scope. ”

Leng Ning stood up, "I know, boss, let's go back and implement it!"
