Merely hours after Google announced Android 12, Microsoft unveiled Windows 11 last night. That’s technically a day early outside India, considering how the company planned to reveal the new operating system on October 5. Nevertheless, Windows 11 has started rolling out as a free upgrade on eligible Windows 10 PCs.
Windows 11 brings major visual changes to Windows, including a new Start menu, Action Center, updated Microsoft Store, Settings app, and more. Unfortunately, the current Windows 11 build is shipping without the much-hyped Android apps support. We have a dedicated article if you are interested to catch up on all new Windows 11 features.
Apart from Microsoft’s Surface hardware, Microsoft’s Chief Product Officer Panos Panay points out how major brands, including Asus, HP, and Lenovo, have been announcing Windows 11 laptops over the past month. To add to this lineup, you could expect Windows 11 devices from Acer, Dell, Samsung, and other brands soon.
