Windows 11: **It kinda runs android apps**
Windows phone: Ah, shit! Here we go again.
I would never upgrade to windows 11. Terrible , useless features , im sure its using hundreds of MBs in your ram when you do nothing.
@@sbypasser819 That's what I still say about W10. I am using W8.1 and still will for 2 more years.
@@AndyRoidEU I use windows 7 , but the reason i dont upgrade to windows 10 is that im afraid some of my programs wont run. And yes you are right , for android its the same , every new version is just worse...
I'm still holding Windows Phone from 2016, it's flawless (almost), but since Windows 11 is came out, I think it's time to change the phone, really don't want the iPhone, but android is also really sucks... Wondering if Microsoft plans something about Windows 11 phone... Could be fantastic
@@George_Shonia I've got to agree that the only downsides of using Windows phone was the missing support for the most Android apps and that it didn't really get much attention either from Microsoft or from the customers. It came out late when Android and IPhone were kind of contesting each others customers.
I think Microsoft will once again do the mistake of not giving support for *all* the Android apps. If they would give apk install support they would actually attract Android customers.
I love how marques' background looks like the Windows logo
Window moment
Definitely intentional. Love it.
Because he's on windows today 😁
Dammmm
Hahhaah
How long did it take the team to get that Windows logo light/shadow so perfect behind you? 🔥

Don't think Amazon Play Store was the right decision. Personally think it should have been Google Play
I agree with this! But maybe they partnered with Amazon.
Just a guess but that might mess with the chrome book hype Google has.
I've heard that it has to do with the fact that Amazon regulates it's app store more tightly, a la Apple. Meanwhile, Google's app store is like the wild west when it comes to security issues, etc.
You can't see Ronaldo and Messi in the same team. Do you?
I don’t think google allowed it
I feel like they took the skype tech and backend and used it to make teams into something that could actually exist
Yeah that’s what they did with Windows too. :D
I think the most hilarious part is I’ll be running Google Android apps… through Amazon App Store… in Microsoft Windows… on my Apple MacBook
Lmao
My thought exactly.
same here lol
ah yes MacBook... the glorified Chromebook.
Amazon's app store won't have Google apps 🤦🏿♂️
The windows logo on the wall in the background is just beautiful
didn't even notice :O
Anyone can have a youtube channel...not anyone can have a youtube channel like MKBHD
Noticed that too, insane details in every video 🤩🤩
Our man Marques is a master at hiding incredible details
Came here looking for 'who beat me to the windows logo background' comment 😆
3:00 they bought skype to destroy skype 😂😂
It sounds funny, but it can be a viable business strategy. 😂
sounds like what apple did with beats...
Marques, I really enjoyed your video! I don't say that very often so the complement is well earned. I'm liking what I see on W11 as well, and the first (and not least) of these is the rounded corners! I have disliked the basic boxy look of W10 since it was introduced as a beta. It looked like a step (maybe even 2 steps) backward in design to me. I'm also looking forward to experiencing many of the other improvements. Run Android apps? I don't have a need or desire at this time but we'll see, down the road. Keep putting out great videos my man!
They bought Skype to integrate it into Teams and it’s going to replace Skype over time.
Yeah came here to say this. The technology behind skype is what they bought. Teams (and Xbox Live Chat, if I'm not mistaken) have been running the skype codec for a while now
my thoughts exactly. Like what apple did with beats to make airpods
They didnt bought it for that reason but yeah... they decided to replace it now
They heavily overpaid for Skype though
LIAR
the discrete Windows logo behind Marques is why i follow him.
Wish I never saw your comment now 😂
Ha thanks for pointing that out!
It was subtle, but I noticed it right away.
i was wondering if someone else saw that attention to detail.
😮
love the ‘Windows’ lighting background!
The death of everyone's fetish "Refresh" button.
It was under the more options menu, now with the latest update it's back in the main right click menu.

It was ahead of taste
Only design wise.
Yeh, design wise, it as solid.

I like the Windows logo that MKBHD created on the background with his Aputure lights.

@@MandolinSashaank 99%? For real?
I have watched a couple of reviews now in October both pro and con and appreciate your review. It is tempting, but learning the new features will reduce productivity for a time. Watching from the Philippines.

Fantastic Windows 11 review. Marques, you did an excellent job. Continue your great work!
I love the new asthetic and start up sound, even if I still have nostalgia for Windows 7 and Windows 10
They finally made official Bluestack.
Except it doesn't have gaming focused capabilities like keyboard mapping and Real-time in-game translation.
Finally all my gacha games on one platform (hopefully)
indeed
Could we sideload instead of using the built in amazon app store

*The shadow behind Marques in the form of the Windows logo is so cool!*
💯
I like that kind of detail
@@nyxstrix0 Same! Those subtle things make the video awesome!
True
Also the blue accent light in the left
Excellent synopsis, Marques
Im actually excited about it. Loving how the new UI looks!
I agree that Teams is more on the corporate brand. But I appreciate Microsoft's effort to not fragment their messenger apps like Google did.
Really?
Remember MSN Messenger? Microsoft Lync? Skype? *_Skype for Business???_* and now Teams?
There are actually a bunch of other messenger-type apps from/by/in Microsoft...
Summary: easy with the credit. Google messaging sucks, but that doesn't mean that Microsoft messaging is awesome.
But isn’t teams horrible? It’s clunky and annoying. Google meet over it anyday
@@head4shot My company uses Teams. I love it. You can edit messages, edit attachments schedule calls and everything I like. You can send messages with formatting like color, hyperlinked text, and fonts (useful for long texts). I wish WhatsApp was as feature packed.
@@head4shot teams is useful for work because you can edit and upload documents on it. Think of meet like having google meet and drive intergrated into one
I would not be surprised if by the holiday they announced Skype is being integrated in Teams... You read it here first.
Anybody noticed how clever the background is with that blue colour left and that windows reflection basically in the upper right part of the screen? Genius
Bill gates knows his job !!
Dammmm
OMG, captain obvious is here
Interesting. In his Skillshare class, MKBHD mentions how they like to adapt their background for each video to match the topics. We should pay more attention to his setup now.
@@kevinclinton5813 Bill Gates has no job. Get real.
I swear you are my go to for everything Tech! I just got the alert that I can upgrade to Windows 11. But I needed to research before making the switch. Thank you for this video!
beauty of windows is that there is always workarounds for incompatible devices online especially for the older or earlier than TPM 2.0 devices
Microsoft brings more transition and effects
While me
Turning off each and every effect and adjust for best performance
that's me too, i won't be interested in most of it lol

first thing i do on any pc.
Im curious, how you turn it off?
In windows 10
"Hey mum can we get the google play store"
"No, we have the google play store at home"
The google play store at home: * *Amazon app store* *
Well I don't ask my mom before installing stuff on my phone/laptop
what
@@SampsfaN Lmao
Its still nice to see. Except for few native google proprietary apps like Gmail most of the apps will run natively on Windows. More developers will come to Amazon to reach larger audience. There are really very good android apps that are crying for bigger screen. Needless to say, it's a leap for Surface series because the current offering for art in Windows isn't that exciting. Also, we might see more android apps for Windows crowd
Yeah, it's bs that it doesn't have the Play Store. F'n Bezos
Im glad you also mentioned that you can change the centre justification of the toolbar. Even the BBC mentions that the new toolbar is centralised but never mention that you can change it.
I tweeted them but still no correction on their articles (I dont know why it bugs me so much; maybe because thats the first thing Im going to do once I can get a copy that will run without TPM 2 needed.
*(Im not gonna go and torrent a repackaged version)*
Excellent video, thanks for all the heads up!
Don't sleep on his window background
That's genius
And teams looks like Gchat. Just me?
His team is amazing. I didn't even noticed that.
"Windows XP was superflat"
This man never used the olive theme and it shows.
@randomprecision a fellow man of culture
FACTS
Olive theme was AWESOME
Repping Zune theme here
@@prodbydanai nvm zune theme, let's talk about the zune music player (both the software that existed on windows and the physical thing). They were both great, I still miss them. If not for MusicBee, I'd definitely still use the Zune software as the default music player
I def feel a certain way about the fact that you need to sign into Amazon. As if Amazon, Facebook, and windows don't already sell your activity enough already
Like the aesthetic/environment from what I saw. Look forward to taking it for a spin. well..several spins.
I love the small details that Marques puts into all his sets ... that windows light in the background is an awesome touch!

My school has Windows 10, but it's the oldest and one of the most known schools of Hamburg, so it kinda has to.
I guess the rest of the world is just 84 generations behind, haha!
That windows starting sound is dope and so much satisfying 😌
Teams in Windows makes sense as in remote work and school times Bill is trying to asses his communication tool as a standard
We should try Windows 11 on a transparent oled display.
I need to see this.
Imagine a laptop with windows 11 and have transparent lg oled
that would make me stay on windows fr, otherwise I would go to mac.
Underrated comment
Yeah, it'd look more cool on that.
First thing I'll do will be to turn the Dark theme on. That thing is shiny.
Yeah it just looks really soft
Like if Windows 11 would be a human it would say
"ohhhh no i dont want to offend anyone"
😂
I have the leaked version of 11 installed, and when I switched to Dark Mode I had a conniption from how fucking good it looks.
Dark theme

as an app?
When I heard "it's 64 bit only" I was like "finally".
I no longer have to choose between dozens of useless installers!
Will there finally be just one "Program Files" folder now?
Its 64 bit installation. Nothing about the software you install.
At least until 128-bit processors hit the market. 😉
@@liambohlSadly no. We will still need backwards compatibility in Windows for years to come. Not to mention the
"C:\Program Files (Arm)" folder that apparently is a thing too. Maybe we'll get a "Program Files (Arm64)" folder too in a once/if Windows on ARM catches on.
I'm actually surprised they didn't go for another gen of 32-bit OS. A lot of businesses require 32-bit OS support even in 2021. Now, they'll just have to run an unsupported version of Windows, rather than the latest and greatest. Which will result in more ransomware attacks, etc.
Thanks MKBHD for the info
Love your show keep up the great work!
This Glassy style is called glassmorphism in design lingo. Hope that helps

Windows 11: can run Android apps
Bluestacks and other Android emulators: Guess I will just die.
They're gonna run out of business pretty soon
Bluestacks sucks to begin with
Not gonna happen. Bluestacks is a heavily gamer centric platform, and does some serious optimization for smooth gameplay, and has killer features like key mapping and multi-instances.
@@DesiCycle But the people who used to use Bluestacks just to run android apps(not from the gaming view) on windows will now use Windows native feature.
@@tusharc2n True, like me😁
nice to see you again.
I liked the glassiness of Vista. All problems aside. Very excited to try the android feature. That is a lot of improvements for free! Impressive, especially for Windows.
Getting teams notification will always give me anxiety attacks, not sure if i'll ever use it for chatting with my friends.
*attacks. Not (to fix your comma splice run-on)
I hate being available 24/7
@@alvallac2171 😊
I feel you bro 😂 ahem... Boss caling 👹
Exactly It just feels too formal and anyways I don't have nay friends
That multi-window management and external monitor window memorization feels like a game changer for me! Such a QoL feature to use with an ultra wide monitor!
Exactly! The new features look great for productivity, great for my workflow style, and the new HDR and Android app features seem like a good, albeit small, step forward to the future. If I hadn't lived through so many releases of well, everything, I'd be surprised at the amount of complainers and whiners already creating issues out of nothing and completely ignoring the good parts.
a feature that has existed in linux for years now. also a ton of other things windows 11 gives already exist in linux for years. without the bload of course ;)
@@Kylian381 of course they have but adding them to Windows is useful for a ton of people. Just because milk tastes great with chocolate doesn't mean I don't want to pour it on my cereal.
This feature existed for a long time in Windows Powertoys. So if you can't wait, you can try it out. The feature itself is called FancyZones
@@dennis4029 good tip, might check this out for fun before the 11 upgrade comes along!
Awesome review. Thanks for explaining how to run Android apps on Windows 11.
I am really excited for this cause my last phone got broken on 30th March 2020 and I have been using Android apps and games on PC through Emulator.
There's a LOT missing in the Amazon App store.
But hey you get tiktok 😒
So much that I installed the Google app store on my kids amazon tablets. They are old enough now that I can trust them with an actually good tablet though.
I'm actually pretty stoked for Comixology, but I probably won't care about any other android apps.
Yehh

Don we all
Me too

I see what u did there 👍
Great unbiased review, keep up the good work and yesI like the idea of running android apps on Windows as long as they don’t make me jump through hoops to do it….
I always enjoy your videos...honest and well presented. I have been waiting a long time for Windows to run Android apps. My phone for a long time has been a Samsung Note. My laptop is a Surface Pro 3 and time for an upgrade. I was also considering buying the Samsung 8 tablet since I am using my phone for most of my google searching and using it like a table....I do not use my Surface pro 3 as a go to tablet. Perhaps with Android apps on the surface pro 3, my phone, and most likely the Samsung tablet I will have almost everything...might not need the Samsung tablet with LTE. Thank you
I wish if they replace that god damn image viewer
Windows 7's was Great
It takes a decade to load a pic I hate it 😭
@@jDelicious___ I switched to IrfanView almost immediately after they removed the old one
Download the abandoned project by Google: Picasa
It's the fastest and best app still. Just use it for image viewer as default.
Using it from 4-5 years.
lol, i still use windows photo viewer on windows 10
It's actually in Windows 11, the leaked iso allows you to enable it from the registry
Windows Vista was literally like Glass, elegant appearance but Fragile as hell.
Facts.
Maybe windows 11 will use gorilla glass
@@sybilleaesthesia964 gorilla glue is pretty solid too lol
No wonder they upgraded themselves to Acrylic. 😆
I ran Vista from release day until Win7 launched. I had fewer issues with Vista than I have with Win7 or 10....
I think if the intro soundtrack stared a quarter of a second earlier at the very beginning, thus making this intro a 11/10!
I use windows 11 as my main operating system and it's been great so far.
@Elijah Smith For gaming its meh, Would highly recommend it for productivity.
Bluestacks be like* "So long people!"
Sad
RIP Bluestacks
No it ain’t going anywhere cuz what if for games it won’t support controllers yet or something.
Plus it won’t have everything that google has
@Elias Productions ya
The Amazon app store doesn't have nearly all android apps. Plus BlueStacks has amazing keyboard/mouse mapping.
"Android apps coming to Windows"
oh cool
"...using the Amazon app store"

Why? Like with Autodesk's Sketchbook app I can just register and use it. Signing up for a new company is not tedious at all.
@@OneDirection2V it is if you literally HATE said company lol.
@@okeynwachie why hate Amazon specifically? I mean, what did Bezos do, that other big bois don't? It's a genuine question: they don't seem to be very big in my region. Well, **Title card** seems pretty good, at least. :)
Albeit I can understand, why one might be reluctant to give more and more of his data to bigcorp hive mind, at the same time being too lazy to fully switch to Linux (that's me, lol). I'm just curious, how is Amazon worse than their competition in this case.
Also on the side note: which Android apps do you miss on Windows? For me it's completely the opposite.
Super informative.... MY FRIEND THIS VID IS SUPER
It's cool to have Android apps on Windows, it sounds like a no-brainer now! (Even though I hadn't thought of it before).
I would almost guarantee when they bought Skype the point wasn’t to make it the best thing ever, it was likely to swallow the back end and build MS Teams
You could tell they didn't mean to make it the best thing ever by... every day of them owning skype.
Yeah, that's the impression I got too. Skype is now teams, essentially
Yeah kinda like what Apple did to beats by Dre
Yeah kind of like when Apple bought Dark Sky. They’re now shutting down Dark Sky and rolling everything into iOS’s native weather app. Imagine the same thing is going to eventually happen with Google Maps and Waze.
Too bad they took their sweet-ass time, they’re likely never going to be the Personal default nor the Enterprise default.
Windows Vista Service Pack 2 is great though..
I don't miss bsod bro
Windows 8.1 is in the same boat
Exactly, it was just ahead of time, I never had any performance issues with Vista, then again I started to use it right around the time Windows 7 came out and by then most of it's issues were ironed out. Never really had a problem with it and thought it looked nice at the time.
And Windows 8.1 was MUCH better than Windows 8
@@mkbhd I really enjoyed 8.1

like omfg, making sure that an apk will support both android and windows is a pain in the ass
It would be cool to see Windows Explorer getting a visual overhaul as well.
I read something about this. Apparently there is gonna be a new version of windows explorer that was spotted during Microsoft's presentation.
For real
@@marosteeha yes, it looked clean, more functional and modern
Half of the time, I have Win Explorer open. There are definitely some improvements which could be made to the interface!
Give. Me. Tabs.
Natively.
Running Android in Windows is trivial, many companies including Laptop makers like MSI, have created apps to run Android apps, and they , MSI have an Android app store!
It sounds to me like they could be trying to resurrect Windows phones. I might be open to going back to Microsoft if they end up doing that, and they actually work well. I loved my Lumia back in the day, but I hated that most of the apps I wanted to use didn't have a version that worked with my phone.

Why not?

I mean if you use, the demand will be there for developers to implement their apps on the Amazon store.
Its a win, win for amazon and Microsoft.
Marques: They spent 8.5 billion on Skype.
Microsoft: How cute. Someone is talking about how we spend our pocket change.
That’s like 2% of their total assets or 20% of their net income, not pocket change at all.

tku - I was apprehensive about windows 11, due to some difficulties I had with old vs new. Furthermore, I do like the idea of moving into windows 11, now that you have told me about the good, the down-side and the side deals with Amazon and Microsoft etc. Subsequently, I do like the idea that it's going to house some android apps (like tik tok) which could be good. Re: Microsoft teams, I am a student at university, we use ZOOM in Australia, New Zealand etc 100% for uni, school, high-school, meetings, chit-chats with families etc, etc - therefore, Microsoft teams in my opinion may have difficulty converting us students at all levels and our families and friends into 'teams'. Tks for your great videos, you really help a beginner like me understand more about computers and their software. tku! :) :)
Cross compatibility has been much needed
finally they listened
QUESTION: will installing windows 11 make my laptop slower or use up more battery?
@@lemonking3644 They said everything in windows 11 is faster and more power efficient. Obviously they wouldn't make it slower 😅
maybe next they can bring play store to the windows
Yeas
Plot twist: they will change the name of Teams to Windows Messenger. XD.
MSN
that'd be smart, I dont think it's going to to happen.
Can’t just change the name. It would have to look like the old msn messenger layout. But modernised.
Your reviews rock always trusted
3:12 my school uses teams and it's honestly pretty good for online school
Microsoft buying Skype feels like the same motive as Apple buying Beats
Yep. Use the technology to promote it's own lineup. Kinda smart way to get monopoly. Sucks that it worked.
It was actually a good idea to use beats to create Apple Music & Airpods
Look how good they’re performing
A point to note that Skype for business is still being used in majority of the enterprises
The logic is simple: you need a bad product so the next one will impress the users.
Yeah nah.
marketing 101 right here
Lower your standards so anything is good basically lol
Big brain
classic apple move
As someone who runs bluestack on windows now to get access to android apps I'm glad to see this integration. But as someone who does not do so professionally there is less worry about poor compatibility being on a desktop over a phone
Appreciate that windows on the background! Cute but perfect.. 🪟
