On June 25, it was reported that six years after the release of Windows 10, Microsoft officially launched its new generation PC operating system Windows 11 last night.
On the UI interface, Windows 11 as a whole seems to continue the design style of Win10. Of course, it has also made some changes. For example, the more square "Tian" logo has been replaced. The taskbar and start menu are in the center by default, as is the MacOS next door. The dynamic tile design adopted since Win8 has been canceled in the start menu. All windows and cards are processed with rounded rectangles.
Windows 11 has optimized the split screen operation. Now the window maximization button integrates the multi window arrangement function of preset multiple layouts, which is very convenient for split screen with one key; You can also create multiple virtual desktops and set different themes and wallpapers for work, entertainment and other purposes.
The newly added Snap Groups function can package the applications in use into a group, and then minimize hiding or one click restore.
The Widgets widget component function is also added (it must be said that all major systems have the same goal in different ways). The tool components are placed in the same page that occupies the left half of the screen, and users can freely arrange and combine them.
Microsoft Teams is now integrated into the taskbar launch application.
Windows 11 has also improved and optimized the touch operation and stylus writing experience, and the new virtual keyboard style is more friendly for one hand operation.
For game experience, Windows 11 has added three technologies:
DirectX 12 Ultimate, Provide immersive game screen experience at high frame rate
DirectStorage, The game is loaded directly by GPU, reducing the loading time
Auto HDR, Provide images with higher brightness and richer colors
In addition, the Xbox Games Pass game subscription service integrated in the system can now be accessed directly on Windows 11.
A major upgrade of Windows 11 this time is to download, install and run Android applications locally in the store (currently relying on Amazon app store), although it is not clear whether it can only run the adapted Android applications or freely install them for users, However, this will undoubtedly be a great enrichment and supplement to the future Windows applications, especially the tablet application ecology, and the real entertainment productivity will be the same.
It is said that the response of the Blue Stacks team of the Android simulator to this news is as follows (the computer modes of various Android tablets can also be said to be killed directly):
The last is the adaptation and update of Windows 11. The minimum hardware requirements of Windows 11 are: 1GHz or faster 64 bit CPU; Minimum 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM; Support TPM 2.0; Support DirectX 12 or higher and WDDM 2.0 driver; 720P screen larger than 9 inches.
If you are not sure whether the equipment meets the requirements, you can download the computer health check application on the official website to view it.
The preview version of Windows 11 will be available for download next week (however, it has been leaked before). The official version update will be available at the end of this year. The free update for genuine Win10 users will last until 2022.
