You'll see several of the quotes I will put up in the coming days/weeks will reference multi-monitor setups. Hence, I wanted to repost a pic I uploaded in my post on August 24th, 2018. I do not suggest that this is the typical set-up, but I can imagine some of you might run a variation of this. Keep in mind that the pic shows 3 screens, none of which are low resolution, running on the bottom end configuration back in 2018. The graphics HP on the newer models is the same now as it was then, only very slightly tweaked via OS enhancements, etc. The newer models, especially the Core m3 models, will seem to have slightly better graphics performance dur primarily to the extra CPU horsepower allowing for less stuttering when pushed beyond what should be considered reasonable. Our own tests back then revealed that for what we were doing, there was not a big delay, despite how hard we were pushing it. Any delay was from the application(s) not the graphics per se.
I am not at my regular office right now, so I don’t know when I can hook my SG2 up to similar conditions. Perhaps Brian can replicate a similar setup (?) As a matter of fact, though, Brian is supposed to have already gotten my SG2 so he can test some mobile/4G items but I’ve been hoarding it. Hence reviving that little setup may not happen for a while. About the only thing different with respect to software might be for us to include our web product and add some sort of "heavy lifting" product.
[Edit] For now, though, I'll just post another user review in my next post. It'll be a couple of video links to someone using Adobe Premier Pro in his desktop environment and in the field. Yes, it's not your URAR, but some Adobe products are known to be tough on graphics and regular application throughput. I will reach out to a company we work with to see if they will allow me to show their field products...
In any case, here is a link to that earlier post, and all I have to say is: Behold! (LOL)
BTW, that post also had some shots taken of the Fire Department across the street from our old office, so scroll down if you want to revisit those. FWIW, I am told that the cameras in the SG2 are better than the SG1’s – the base specs appear identical and I am told that the improvements are a result of internal “generational” improvements and the results are noticeable…
Hope this helps!
