Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 19002 Releases: improving your Bluetooth Experience

by ddos ·

Today, Microsoft has pushed Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 19002 to users of Fast Ring channel to continue to improve the connectivity experience of Bluetooth peripherals. Bluetooth Fast Connect is a feature that Microsoft is currently improving to simplify the operation, notification, and provisioning process of connecting Bluetooth devices to Windows 10 systems. For example, a supported Bluetooth device will now automatically connect to Windows 10, and a notification will pop up in the lower right corner of the system after the connection is successful. Users no longer need to manually enter the set Bluetooth option to search for devices and pair them, which can simplify the user’s connection process and improve operational efficiency. However, it is a pity that this feature only supports Microsoft’s own Bluetooth accessories, such as Microsoft’s Bluetooth mouse, Bluetooth keyboard or headphones.
