Lenovo Smart Display Applications for Windows 10 — приложение, позволяющее управлять запущенными программами между двумя экранами.
Простыми словами: точной информации о приложении нет, но ясно одно — оно может помочь пользоваться ноутом, если вы подключаете второй ноут. Приложение оптимизирует работу программ на два монитора, или переключение их на второй монитор, что-то в этом духе, в любом случае стоит попробовать.
Разбираемся
- Дело в том, что ноутбуки Леново часто используются в корпоративной среде. При этом иногда подключают второй монитор к ноуту. Компания Леново понимает все и выпустила специальное приложение Lenovo Smart Display Applications for Windows 10, позволяющее пользователям легко управлять расположением программ между двумя мониторами.
- Кстати данная программа размещена в магазине Microsoft Store и это хорошо — некоторые компании не разрешают установку ПО из интернета, но разрешают из магазина Майкрософт.
- Это не драйвера и не критически важное ПО. Если вы не подключаете второй монитор к ноутбуку — данное приложение можно спокойно удалить. Тем более что при необходимости его всегда можно загрузить из магазина Майкрософт.
Вообще-то под названием Lenovo Smart Display существует некий девайс для умного дома, это умная колонка с большим дисплеем, которая содержит голосовой помощник Google Assistant. Колонка-помощник понимает голосовые команды, может не только отвечать, но и визуализировать ответ, а также смотреть Ютуб. Однако рассматриваемая программа не имеет отношения к этому девайсу, это не драйвера и не фирменное ПО, просто часть названия совпала))
Удачи и добра, до новых встреч друзья!

Lenovo Smart Display
The Lenovo Smart Display is much more than just a Google Home with a screen. While it can turn on the lights, tell you the weather, and set reminders, the Smart Display adds visual and interactive responses, is capable of placing Google Duo video calls, and plays TV shows and movies.
$200 to $250 is a bit more expensive than a standard Google Home, but when used to its full potential, the benefits of the Lenovo Smart Display outweigh the cost.
This is definitely the best Smart Display out there, but that’s also because it’s the only Smart Display currently available. Even so, it sets a high bar for similar products that follow.
When it comes to smart assistants, Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa are the most competitive options out there. Both platforms can do just about the same thing, but Amazon has had a leg up by offering two smart speakers with displays. With Smart Displays, Google now has a product category that fully utilizes the Assistant and competes with things like the Echo Show.
Read our full Lenovo Smart Display review to see if this is something that you’d like in your home.
A note on this Lenovo Smart Display review: I’ve been using the 10-inch Lenovo Smart Display for roughly two weeks. Our Lenovo Smart Display is running Android Things system firmware version NIT1.180611.004, cast firmware version 1.32.127892, and Google Assistant Smart Display application version 1.2.24+prod.0.4.5.4850785.
The Lenovo Smart Display used in the video review was provided to Android Authority by Lenovo while the unit used in the written review was purchased directly.
Editor’s note: This review was originally published in October of 2018. Since then a few more smart displays have come to the market, powered by Google Assistant.
Update (January 
: The Lenovo Smart Display has received a big software update since this review was published. With these updates, the speaker can now be added to multi-room audio groups, and the Lenovo Smart Display can also create Live Albums from Google Photos. It also adds Google Home View, and a way to video the video from a Nest Video Doorbell. Finally, the speaker can now be used, via Google Assistant, to help control smart TVs, speakers, set-top boxes and other entertainment devices with voice commands.
Update (October 1st): this review originally was published in August of 2018. Since then the JBL Link View has also debuted, giving you another smart display option if this particular model doesn’t hit your fancy.
Design
The Lenovo Smart Display is probably one of the most modern-looking pieces of smart tech you can buy right now. The device’s 8- or 10-inch screen is the main attention grabber, but the speaker grill on the left creates a unique asymmetrical shape. I’m a fan of this design, but others might not be.
While I’m a fan of the Lenovo Smart Display design, it’s easy to see why others might not be.
Around back, the Smart Display features an angular design to house its internal components (Snapdragon 624, 2GB of RAM, 4GB of storage) and prop the device up. The unit sits best in a landscape orientation. The product’s design allows it to sit upright, but Google hasn’t actually implemented a portrait orientation for Smart Displays — at least not yet. Currently, the only time the screen can reorient itself is during Google Duo video calls (more on that below).
Other than the size of the screen and body of the Smart Displays, the only real difference between the 8-inch and 10-inch models is the material on the back of the device. The rear of the 10-inch variant we reviewed is made out of bamboo and the 8-inch unit sports a grey soft-touch material.
While I’m personally enamored with the bamboo look, it might not fit the style of whichever room you plan to keep the Smart Display in. My unit primarily sits up against a wall, so I rarely see its back anyway.
The Smart Display is almost entirely controlled by voice, though there are still physical buttons on the edge of the device. The volume and mic mute buttons all feel premium and provide a nice tactile response when pressed.
Camera
One small detail on the front of the Smart Display is the 5MP camera. At the time of publishing this review, the only use for this is to place video calls through Google Duo. Overall, the video quality is pretty decent and gets the job done.
Of course, we would like to see Google and third parties use the camera more. The search giant could at least include a camera app to let people snap selfies or shoot short video clips, or even just allow companies like Microsoft to add Skype integration.
For privacy reasons, Lenovo included a switch that moves a physical cover over the lens and turns off the camera.
For obvious privacy reasons, some users won’t love that the device’s camera is seemingly always watching you. Thankfully, Lenovo was wise and included a switch that not only turns off the camera but also moves a physical cover over the lens. We want this to be a standard feature on all future Smart Displays.
Software and performance
The Lenovo Smart Display runs on a new operating system Google calls Android Things, which is like a pared-back Internet of Things version of Android proper. By starting fresh, Google’s built an experience from the ground up for Google Assistant.
Speaking of that, Google Assistant primarily drives everything on the Lenovo Smart Display. It’s the same Google Assistant you may already know from your phone, so there’s no additional learning curve. Most interactions with the Smart Display will be through the use of the “Hey Google” or “Okay Google” hotwords.
Touchscreen control is also a vital component of the experience once you dig into the visual response provided by the Assistant. You’ll be able manually adjusting a smart light bulb’s brightness and scrolling through a recipe, among other things.
The touchscreen can also navigate the Smart Display’s home screen. After tapping on the device to exit the screensaver, the gadget will present you with the weather, any upcoming calendar appointments or reminders, suggestions from services like YouTube and Spotify, and much more. I almost never visited this page, though it was handy for finding new Spotify radio selections.
This distinction between the two products is one Google can either minimize or continue expanding. Considering Smart Displays are seen by many as a Google Home with a screen, I think it’s wise to bring the two under one roof and avoid further confusion.
One other disappointing aspect of the Smart Display is its limited Chromecast support. I found it pretty annoying that I could cast YouTube and Play Movies to the unit, but not Netflix. While this is admittedly a pretty minor downside to the Smart Display, for those like me that watch content while in the kitchen, Netflix’s absence is noteworthy. This is more a Google issue than a Smart Display one, so maybe it will be fixed at some point.
I occasionally found my Smart Display took longer than normal to process a command. I don’t know if this has to do with the 2GB of RAM. Sometimes I could tell the Smart Display heard what I said, but it took a good five to 10 seconds to respond. Thankfully, this didn’t occur too often, but it’s something I hope Google addresses in the future.
All software updates to the Lenovo Smart Display will be handled by Google.
All software updates to the Lenovo Smart Display will be handled by Google. The company is clearly invested in Android Things’ future, so expect additional features and support for years.
Display quality
The 8-inch Smart Display model sports a 1,280 x 800 HD IPS panel while the 10-inch variant features a 1,920 x 1,200 FHD IPS screen. I can’t say how good the 8-inch display looks, but I have been rather impressed with the picture and video quality on the 10-inch model.
Because I mostly use the Lenovo Smart Display to listen to music throughout the day or watch videos while cooking dinner, I am continually looking at the screen. In the two weeks I’ve used the Smart Display, I was never disappointed by the visuals and quite enjoyed what I watched.
If you get up close to the display and look, pixels are visible. However, this device isn’t meant for prolonged use, so most will never notice these details.
Audio quality
Throughout the Lenovo Smart Display review period, I used it for a variety of audio including music, movies, YouTube videos, Duo calls, podcasts, news, and voice searches.
Both variants of the Smart Display include a 10-watt speaker with two passive tweeters. From our testing, this is great for listening to the casual dialog of podcasts and TV shows, but the unit struggles when playing back audio with a lot of low-end and bass. Android Authority‘s own Lanh Nguyen handled our Lenovo Smart Display review on YouTube and found the speaker distorted at max volume when playing music with a lot of treble. I didn’t experience this on my unit.

Think of the Lenovo Smart Display’s speaker as something that will get the job done but won’t blow you away.
The Lenovo Smart Display’s speaker will get the job done, but it won’t blow you away. If sound quality is the make or break feature for you, it’s probably wise to hold off until JBL releases the Link View.
Lenovo Smart Display review: Should you buy it?
Smart Displays are an entirely new product category for Google. Companies like JBL and LG have shown off upcoming devices, but Lenovo is first to actually release one. As such, we don’t really have much to compare this to.
Despite this, the Smart Display itself was everything I wanted it to be and more. While it’s not a Google Home, it did 90 percent of the tasks I expected it to and provides rich visual information on top of the queries and commands that I give it. I find this incredibly valuable, and a valid reason to consider replacing my collection of Google Homes and Assistant speakers — or at least some of them.
PSA: Smart Displays aren’t a replacement for your Google Home — at least not yet
Features
If the screen will benefit your needs, you understand its limitations, and acknowledge this is the first product in an entirely new category, I would absolutely recommend the Lenovo Smart Display. In time, Google will roll out new features and bring more functionality to the platform — the device should only get better over time. The Lenovo Smart Display sets a high bar for any upcoming competition.
The 8-inch Lenovo Smart Display costs $199, while the larger 10-inch model will set you back $250. I enjoyed having the larger variant in my kitchen because I watch a lot of TV and movies there, but the 8-inch model makes more sense for other, less-trafficked areas of your home.
The Lenovo Smart Display has quickly become one of our favorite smart home gadgets in a long time, mostly due to the fact that it takes everything great about the Google Home, slaps on a screen, and costs under $200.
The addition of that screen allows for a lot of neat tricks we’ve never seen before with display-less Google Assistant speakers, and after having a Lenovo Smart Display in my apartment for a few weeks, I’ve come across a lot of things I wasn’t expecting when I ordered it.
Here are 10 things you probably don’t know about the Lenovo Smart Display!
1. It can act as a Chromecast target
Just like if you had a Chromecast plugged into your TV, you can send movies and TV shows from your favorite apps to the Lenovo Smart Display to watch them on it.
Not all apps that support Chromecast work with the Smart Display quite yet (Netflix is currently the biggest omission), but it is compatible with YouTube, Hulu, PlayStation Vue, YouTube TV, and more.
2. The speaker sounds surprisingly great
Whether you’re watching videos or listening to music, the speaker on the Lenovo Smart Display sounds much better than I was initially anticipating.
Sound comes through nice and clear, there’s a respectable bass-y punch, and I’ve not once dared to turn this thing up to max volume — it gets loud.

You’ll still find an overall better audio experience with something like a Sonos One or Google Home Max, but considering the $199 starting price and the fact that there’s a screen in addition to the speaker, Lenovo did a great job here.
3. You can make regular phone calls
It’s no surprise that you can make video calls via Google Duo with the Lenovo Smart Display, but did you know that you can also make regular, audio-only phone calls?
You can ask the Smart Display to make a call to one of your contacts just like you would with Google Home, and thanks to the display, there’s an on-screen keypad you can use during a call, too.
In other words, this just might be the most convenient way to call the customer care team for your cable or phone service provider.
4. Support for audio groups is currently missing
There’s plenty to love about the Lenovo Smart Display, but one thing I wasn’t aware of before using the gadget was a less than pleasant surprise.
While audio groups in the Google Home app can be used to simultaneously play music on multiple Google Assistant speakers at once, the Smart Display cannot be added to these groups for whatever reason.
It’s unclear if this is something that’ll be changed down the road, but for the time being, it, unfortunately, makes the Smart Display feel like a separate beast compared to other Assistant speakers when it should feel like an extension of them.
5. There’s a lot to customize with Ambient Mode
When you’re not using the Smart Display, it’ll go into something called «Ambient Mode.» There are a few different ways you can configure Ambient Mode, including:
- Photo frame — Your favorite albums from Google Photos
- Art gallery — Beautiful images and artwork
- Clock — Any Ambient Mode can show the time, but this one has a choice of clock faces
- Experimental — Try out new sources and content (currently Facebook and Flickr)
The addition of the camera on the Lenovo Smart Display allows it to be an excellent Google Duo device for video calls, but if you’re someone that’s concerned about your privacy and don’t like the idea of another camera in your home, Lenovo’s made it easy to completely cover it up.
On the right side of the Smart Display is a physical switch that you can move up to completely hide the camera with a physical cover. When you want to make a video call, just move the cover back down and it’ll work like normal.
Well done, Lenovo.
7. Google Express lets you shop with your voice
Amazon might be the leading site for online shopping, but Google’s been steadily building up its own alternative with Google Express.
On the Lenovo Smart Display, you can say something like «buy juice» or «I need to buy paper towel» and you’ll be shown results of items you can buy on Google Express. You can tap «add to cart» on an item if you find something you like, and at any time, just say «show me my cart» to see what you’ve added.
When you tap the «checkout» button, you’ll receive a notification on your phone to complete the purchase.
The interface could use a bit of work, but even in its current form, is still a great way to quickly add things to your cart as you think about them without having to go to your phone and open an app.
Although you won’t find a full settings page for the Smart Display like you will on an Android phone, there’s still a handy little bar at the bottom that can be used for controlling some simple items.
No matter what you’re looking at on the Smart Display, do a swipe up from the bottom of the screen and you’ll get a small black bar for adjusting the Smart Display’s brightness and volume. There’s also a settings cog that shows your Wi-Fi network, device info, a tab for sending feedback to Google, and a toggle for Do Not Disturb.
9. You can send recipes to it from your phone
Like we’ve already talked about before, the Lenovo Smart Display works great for finding and following recipes in the kitchen. This is never not useful, but you can also find recipes on your phone and then send them to the Smart Display.
While looking at recipes on Google Search, supported sites will show a «Send to Smart Display» button at the bottom of their cards. Tap this, say «start recipe», and you’re ready to start cooking.
10. Weather info comes with adorable sound effects
This last one’s pretty small, but it’s something that always puts a smile on my face.
When you ask about the weather on the Smart Display, certain weather conditions come with adorable sound effects. For example, sunny days are accompanied by chirping birds and stormy days play thunder in the background while the Google Assistant reads off the forecast.

Lenovo Smart Display App is available on Windows 10 Store
Lenovo Smart Display
According to the MSPoweruser report, Lenovo laptops are often used in corporate environments. Users often have a second monitor on the desktop, connect to this monitor when they are on the desk, and then they will use it every day when they are roaming. Unplug it many times.
Lenovo understands the distress of such users having to rearrange the apps on the second screen every time they reinsert, so they released a new app in the Windows 10 store that aims to preserve the gap between the second monitor.

Lenovo Smart display is a brand-new PC application that allows users to easily manage the layout of various Windows applications residing on various displays.
It consists of three parts:
The smart display application will continuously monitor the location of the application on the display and will track all the different display configurations. When a new configuration is detected, the application will search for the stored configuration. If a previous configuration is detected, the application will rearrange the windows according to the detected configuration.
It is very helpful for this application to be published in the Windows 10 Store, because many companies do not allow the installation of applications from the Internet, but allow installation from the Store.
