I played with a build of Windows 10 for Phones using only a keyboard and mouse interface. I had no touch screen available to me at my disposal. During the process, I noticed some interesting things. Here’s a video demonstration of Windows 10 Mobile with just a mouse and keyboard.

Here are some interesting takeaways:

• Windows Phone renders a mouse pointer when using a mouse.
• Windows Phone treats mouse differently than touch.
• When using a mouse, you get a scroll bar inside universal apps, similar to that on the PC.
• Hovering over items shows tooltips, same as it does on a PC.
• You can navigate the Start screen using the arrow keys on your keyboard
• You can press the Windows Key on your keyboard to get to the Start screen.
• You can press the Escape (ESC) key on your keyboard to go back a page.
• You can use the arrow keys, Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End keys on your keyboard to scroll web pages.
• You can use Keyboard shortcuts to cut, copy, select, and delete text
• There is a Mouse and Touchpad setting to select the Primary mouse button.

Here are some juicy screenshots!
