Windows 11 review: Cool new features, still a work in progress

The latest Microsoft OS has some cool new features, but is still a work in progress

[jonahhammond]

Last time I was this early, Microsoft said windows 10 would be the last windows version

It's also worth mentioning that the taskbar can easily be set to be aligned on the left side, like we are used to

"Your iPhone has widgets, your iPad has widgets" hmm don't think those are the most well known platforms for widgets lol.

I'm still on Windows 3.11. Never felt the need to upgrade.

[TheSlowpC]

Been happy with my update on my machines in the home.

As this upgrade is free, I just see it as a OS UI update.

"Windwos has had multiple desktops before... they were kinda hard to get to" DUDE it was literally 2 clicks

I feel that windows 11 is starting to look a little bit like mac os!

[Kougeru]

Big difference: no more start menu shortcut groups. WHY?!

[ShanLin]

The actual reason for Microsoft skipping windows 9 is to avoid confusion for some legacy software dealing with windows 9 and windows 98 or 95

If you work at an Enterprise company outside of the California tech bubble, you will likely use Teams everyday. (for better or worse)

[JonEpicLepic]

About teams, I’d get used to it because I work with a bunch of Fortune 500 companies and everyone is switching over to this for chat and document repos. Sorry man. But teams is pretty great actually.

[AllenTullett]

Multiple windows are really easy in Windows 10, and I know loads of people who use Teams everyday. This guy must be a macOS fan.

I downloaded it. My 50 cents is that it feels a bit snappier (likely due to higher ram requirements), and it takes up a bit less storage. Aside from that, imo, it’s all visual fluff. The real reason I downloaded it is for the eventual implementation of direct storage for video games. Direct storage is also coming to windows 10, but MS said it’d be a bit faster on windows 11. That was the only real reason I upgraded.

[alternity]

Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows.

Until Windows 11.

If it dosent currently support android apps then they need to stop advertising it as a feature. It's like me saying Microsoft should give me a free surface tablet because I plan on paying for it.

[jameslabs]

Most OS improvements PC/Mac over the past 20 years have been superficial. Moving an icon on the side to the middle is a joke.
OS update’s are hardly worth the hype given Thanks

[TheBeagle]

I've had it over 30 days now on my gamer with not one single issue or glitch.

[stepupformentalhealth]

Think I'm going to wait until later this year.

[sontodosnarcos]

6:10 This guy lives in a different galaxy. Everybody is using Teams nowadays.

The number of Android app downloads will increase. Seeing how Steve Jobs wanted to kill off Android, this will be good addition.
