They're renovating the facade, but we all know that if you need to get deep into settings, you're gonna have to deal with ancient menus from windows 7
XP*
@@breastmilkgaming Hell, all the way to 95 for that matter
But hopefully not as much.
accurate. the lack of consistency in the ui is astounding
They've made it so that the old stuff stays hidden unless you specifically go looking for it and even then most windows have rounded corners. That needs to be there so Technicians don't have to relearn an entire OS. Lots of governments and businesses depend on windows and deleting that for an aesthetic would fuk everything up. Plus this is a beta... Remember we're talking about Panos, the guy who created the billion dollar Surface brand and Satya who manuvered M$ to a Trillion dollars while deftly avoiding any of the potential antitrust violations that Apple, FB and Amazon are being investigated for. I trust their vision.
You guys host well together!
Agreed, very enjoyable to listen to their discussions.
Yeah, they should start a podcast or something. /S
yess but we lovee Andreww
Agreeed and no offence to Andrew, but their chemistry is so much better!
We agree on that. Nice balance.
Apple took major parts of IOS and ported them to MacOS and Marcus questions whether Windows is acting like a phone? They're all converging at this point.
Apple has bribed him to criticise everything Microsoft.
He is feeling uncomfortable hearing how amazing Windows 11 is. Shame on you.
Well these top two replies made me lose braincells. Fanboys ffs
@@Ben-co9hy true XD
Apple idea of bringing iOS apps to Mac is just useless, that because Mac OS can't even works with touchscreen, it just dumb. Meanwhile Windows has no problem with bringing native android apps, don't like Amazon app store? that's fine, you can install apk manually just like you do on your phone.
The android apps will be ok on two in ones with touch (not that I’m interested).
I really like that you can now uninstall any app by right clicking on it, without being pushed to add\ remove programs.
Centred start is awesome on ultrawide monitors.
Me : Windows 11 is way better than windows 10
that random Linux user: what new? rounded corners??
I don't understand how they missed that. Most windows laptops have touch.
@Way Are you sure? I feel like I've still been getting pushed to add/remove elements
Just add custom button in Windows 11 for android apps for non touch device, just like what every android emulator on Windows have, then say goodbye to all android emulator like bluestacks, memu, gameloop and others.
I disagree, a centered start isn't good on ultrawide monitors if you can't even put the task bar on the side instead of on the bottom. If you have a REALLY wide monitor then being forced to keep the taskbar at the bottom uses up a lot of space.
Everyone: Windows is too inconsistent and too complex, it sucks!
Microsoft: Simplifies everything and actually made moves to make the OS user friendly
Everyone: Windows is too oversimplified, it acts like a phone now
Microsoft: 👁️👄👁️
Exactly.
Most of them are just Microsoft- haters
inconsistency is not remotely the same as complex
windows ist very inconsistent, but not too complex
ms should simply make windows 10 consinstent in design and remove all the win 3.1 - 8.1 crap and make a win 10 equivalent
everybody would be happy
who the fuck wants a phone os on pc? just get a tablet/big phone
if you have a 24" or 32" display and use a mouse, it is stupid too make everything so big, besides windows 10 is touch friendly already
windows 11 sucks because it removed many win 10 things and is even more inconsistent
only android apps is a good thing (but amazon app store sucks, so sideloading is the way to go)
Windows 7 was very consistent design wise
User: "Hi I'd like to sideload an app on my PC!"
Windows: "Uhhh... you mean install a program???"
@@masterflitzer you forgot one thing there is a lot of PCs that are tablets, starting with the surface line and going for all the 2in1, and let's not talk about most of the laptops now have touchscreen, soo this move have a lot more sense than put iOS apps on MacOS.
What if Microsoft has mobile devices in the works that run full Windows & Android apps on the fly . Maybe thats what this interation of Windows is working towards . A flexible OS that does everything and works on all form factors ..... That'd be cool
They'd have to make windows on ARM actually good if they want to make a phone that runs it
@@AutumnBosco right now it runs on raspberry pi which is many times slower than flagship chipsets in today's phones
yeah that was on Win10 I know how surface pro x ended up but win11 is much better in terms of arm support
Bro there were once windows phones, it did not work....
This is 90% Microsoft just wanting more people to start using their store, and an indirect way to distance themselves from the current anti-trust interest in Operating system stores (Apple’s case but can also be extended to Microsoft and Xbox, Google, Sony, etc)
I'd rather have Google or even Microsoft know my activities on my PC rather than Amazon. Pure preference
Order of trust:
1. Google
2. Apple
3. Microsoft
That's it, no amazon.
@@almostcertainlynotapotato6528 yeah Amazon is a no no.
@@almostcertainlynotapotato6528 google first? What the fuck?
@@almostcertainlynotapotato6528 I think Apple or Microsoft should be first
@@xLightcrystalx was just going to write the same thing
i think people are focusing too much on "android apps on your PC" as in desktop or laptop, i think microsoft made windows 11 to make their surface line much more compelling against iPads. every review of a surface says "its good but you need at least the keyboard cover, but the ipad is very touch friendly" along with APPS! now windows has desktop apps AND android apps. a surface just got a lot more compelling all the sudden. surfaces have been seen more as productivity based, i think they're trying to capture the loungey nature of iPads, get ur tiktok, instagram, ect (they even said during the presentation "a keyboard or mouse isnt needed anymore" along with redesigning their virtual keyboard that looks exactly like android/ios/ipados keyboard)
meanwhile iPads are trying to feel more productivity based, perhaps they're doing such a good job microsoft now has to say "hey, we do productivity AND play", they can no longer just sit back and be the no-brainer choice for workloads as iPads get better and better every year.
(debatable choice partnering with amazon and not saying "btw u can sideload" during the presentation, considering how people feel about amazon rn)
Well said
You nailed it, the UI is purposely designed to be touch friendly to serve as a bridge between a touch OS and windows OS experience. Android app integration seems like a workaround for those who want access to a larger library of touch centric apps over regular windows apps with no built in touch integration which was an ongoing issue with getting developers to create quality touch supported apps for the windows store.
absolutely. the criticisms in this video seem so surface level
@@spidey9504 is that a pun, since microsoft is making a line of phones called "surface"
@@mufradr haha no, I didn't have that in mind when I wrote that. I think surface laptops are good though so it wouldn't even apply imo 😂
this duo is strong i'm hyped about this !!! 🔥🔥
I think David and Marques makes a great pair for these talks
I love the way you two walk us through a topic!
Fun seeing David Imei back in front of the camera. Keep on hustling MK and DI
Whatsapp for business on Windows would be a life saver for businesses, no more useless phone to keep charged all the time.
wow that's a great point, a lot of such other business oriented appa could benefit too. the companies can benefit by just making one Android app if their services are just mobile oriented anyways
Whatsapp eww
Just use a Mac lol
@@nope6786 and the award for the worst solution to a problem goes to:
@@happygofishing for businesses, great for majority of things. For me, great for adobe and Final Cut Pro. Macs are far better than windows.

yo davids a pretty good host ngl was only thinking to watch 2min of the video, in the end i watched everything. woah u guys are great
It's a year old but now we need more videos with him like this. I don't want this video to end lol. That's how nice it is!
There’s a real disadvantage to buying games through the Microsoft store: it doesn’t allow you to change or add content in the game folders at all, which eliminates the ability to do any third party modding.
The whole thing is just a cancer
Yeah but it really depends on the game. If we're talking about a competitive multiplayer game, this would be better to reduce the amount of cheaters from ruining the game for everybody.
@@saqlainhyder5412 that's not their concern though. The intent is more about their proprietary business practices that won't allow you to own your game even after you purchase it.
At least MS gives people an option I.e. the Store is good for those who want simplified and optimized apps, however more advanced users can still install and modify programs they want....unlike Apple’s iOS.
used iPads for 10 years ready to ditch it for a good Win 11 tablet/Surface Neo.
@@LeafTheWitch my guy just said duck tape 💀
The difference between our phones and our desktop computers are smaller than they would like us to think. With a decent desktop mode and HDMI output a phone can handle 80% of the average person's consumer needs and virtually all the administrative needs.
Honestly. Unless most people just watch videos on their laptops and use word processing apps. And these days phones can handle a significant amount of work at a time. Samsung Dex as an example.
@aary vispute You're forgetting about foldables. Granted, they're still overpriced and not really mainstream yet, but they do get the job done for many who own and love them.
Same the other way. There really isn't anything I do on my phone that wouldn't work great on desktop
I never thought I'd like this podcast so much!!!
Short and fun. Great discussion!
The UI needs to change when in touch screen mode. Some of the Touch Screen changes they made in 11 is good, others are terrible.
When in touch screen:
1) Full screen Start Screen
2) Bring back swipe from the left to switch windows
3) Auto-hide (or completely hide the taskbar when in touch mode
4) Context menus should be larger when in touch screen but smaller when in desktop mode (instead of always larger like now)
5) Trouch Friendly versions of office, Windows explorer, and edge (but again only when in touch mode)
This would really make windows convertibles something awesome.
CPUs are the main Problem, minimum 8-Gen Intel required. MS looking into the 7-th Gen, to accept it or not.
TMP 2.0 is older than 3 years, Surface Book 1 has it built-in as a chip, but has the 6-th Gen Intel CPUs.
Pretty sure the 6000 series works. At least from what I heard.
tpm is not needed to install win 11 there are workarounds.... i activated the key with a 8 year old laptop
@@nareshfree " there are workarounds" for now
@@ncpolley Yes it does. MS says that 6-the Gen Intel will be reversed to Win 10 after official release of Win 11. I have Win 11 on the original Surface Book, that's 6-th Gen Intel.
I love the touch screen improvements! I've never used my Surface Pro 7 as much as I do now with the Windows 11 preview installed.
I also agree that I can't think of a lot of Android apps I'd want on my Surface Pro 7 but there is one that I've always wanted on my Surfaces (Surface Pro 2017 (5), 7 and Surface Book 3). And that is a good Kindle app.
That will likely be the first Android app I download to my Surface :-)
This video is on my feed for the past 6 days so I had to watch it.
9:20 I have a touchscreen laptop and it would be amazing to be able to run a few Android apps directly on my laptop.
Also, in the past, Android studio has been a gigantic pain for developing apps on Windows. Maybe this is paving a way for a more "integrated" experience?
TPM 1.2 was NOT common when it was current. It was an extra module that mostly only business laptops got.
TPM 2.0 is, as of right now, the minimum requirement for Windows 11.
I built my pc in 2020 and it dint have that
@@renu3463 Check your bios bruh for a setting call fTPM if you have a AMD Ryzen or if on Intel look for a setting in bios called PTT
@@tohur thanks mate but I use Intel. This TPM thing really sucks
@@renu3463 can you not read? for Intel look for a setting called PTT ..wtf man people need to read

MORE EPISODES WITH DAVID 🙌🏻
I love style of MKBHD
Welcome to the return of Windows 8.1. I guess we wanted a touch screen interface all along.
Windows 11 reminds me a lot of that weird dual-screen phone that came out along with a updated Android launcher. I dont hate it, there are a lot of things I like but knowing Microsoft, I'm really on the fence. I kind of don't like how windows keeps trying to copy inferior products (like chromeOS), but if they actually do allow android apps to run (not holding my breath) that would be really cool because some of the minor issues I've had with windows 10 would disappear if I could just use the mobile version of the apps I use. Some apps don't scale or respond properly to that screen-splitting thing that windows has done since 8.
The UI of windows 11 was ported from another OS called Windows 10X which was designed for another dual screen device called the Surface Neo. Both were cancelled
I thought it looked familiar. I remember seeing Anthony from LTT review a demo of windows 10X.
Many MS Surface Duo owners love their device. It would be incredible if it allowed a dual boot option into Windows, but I don't think that's in the offing anytime soon.
Cool! Yeah, it looks like a neat little device. Ive just never has the chance to play with it. The original official Microsoft skin of Android looked sooooo much like an iOS to me that it bugged me. I was kind of hoping for something more windows-y.
@@sharkfintech5893 not sure that’s possible, I don’t think dual booting Windows for ARM and Android is something that has ever been done plus windows’ support for dual screen devices is not exactly optimal
Yo! David is back on the show. 👌
An advantage for store on windows that I just realized although I still don't use the store much but I have to point this out, is that you can start the download for all the apps you'll ever want and let them download in a queue and they will install automatically, especially if you're busy, you don't have to wait for an installer to finish downloading then you come and go through it's setup before you're finally done and can use the software. It saves time, and if the windows store gets more good apps and include more popular freeware us use, it will be convincing to me.
I would run the Spotify android app. The windows version lags on startup regardless of what machine I’ve tried it on.
Also the mobile UI is much better than desktop + Desktop has in-app ad banners
Works great since i've installed an ssd
Use the website version instead, its much better
@@abhishekmaurya08 bruh no. I'm a premium user and i like both versions. Android app for phone and windows app for windows. I never had any ad in any of those Spotify clients.
@@nazilramadhany658 web app
Running Windows 11 on 5000 series chip, and it's pretty darn smooth!
I don't get why it requires 8000 chips tho, it seems unnecessary
One thing I'm excited for is better support for traditional win32 programs being available on the store and using it similar to a Linux package manager to get all your updates in one place
for the record, TPM 2.0 is required but you can bypass that, but secure boot is a fundamental thing your motherboard must support it
and the compatibility checker MKB talked about just let you know if your PC eligible or not but it will not activate the secure boot for you, you have to do it your self
The android apps on windows is a huge deal for people like me who emulate android games on windows for a better experience than on phone.
Same here but I don’t think we will get the level of functionality that emulators offer for games
yes, technicly Android apps, but still the very limited Amazon store. Why?!?!?! If they will allow Android apps to run then the the whole freaking app store and not a third party store. I don't get it but that tracks for something Microsoft will do.
That quick settings menu looks almost identical to ChromeOS.
9:16 when he said that it clicked in my head: 2 in 1 convertible laptops! I have one of those. It's probably the intended use case for this feature. I hope they are implemented in a way that makes the touch interaction the same as the mobile versions.
I have a really bad time using my notebook on touch mode, because it doesnt work like a mobile phone or tablet.
For example: when you enlarge a photo in the watsapp app, you cant pinch to zoom in and out!
Many many laptops with windows have touchscreens today, Android apps were something always missing for me and some friends with windows tablets.
I just wish they wouldn't try to slap a phone-like UI in our faces, treating a big keyboardless AIO like Surface, a notebook and a desktop *differently than what they are:* _'overly informative' machines._
It's amazing how they not once think about how great this would be with people with disabilities
You two kept us throughout the video.
The guy sitting next to Marques is doing great. Sry i'm going to check his name.
the most funny thing about the centered start button is, that it's not centered.
the windows logo/start button is the start point of a centered task bar that ends with whatever program you added last leaving the button itself somewhere on the left side in the middle of nowhere.
I enjoyed this episode more, than with the other guy.
@robinbm553 Nah, the other guy just doesn't have the same energy that's compatible with Marques. Not a dig at him, I'm pretty sure he edits the pod, he's just not the best personality for a duo. Imo
@robinbm553 ... Its definitely the person
Windows phones are set to make a comeback . That's what this app store is all about
Hmm indeed, Windows Phones used to support Android apps as well
Fun idea, but Microsoft doesn’t seem to have this in mind
No, there going to make Windows and Your Phone companion experience on Android even more seamless and feature packed in the future. I think this is the right way.
Windows phones were very likeable though.
@@R1ch4rd Google will make sure it not happen.
For me, it's pretty common to sideload apps on Android from the F-Droid store. There are many apps on the F-Droid repository that don't even exist on the play store (ignoring the fact that if you upload an app to the play store that google adds stuff to your app that the developer can't control).
I cant live without Tachiyomi.
I like the idea of centered task bar on ultrawides
I'm more worried about the Intel 7th or 8th gen necessity. I'm running an i7-6800K and that one wouldn't do
I want shortcut icon on the desktop looks more modern and clean 🥺
Smashing that de-ether marques! 😂
This guy I can listen to for long ... Even MKBHD seems scared he may say something to offend one of the big companies ...
Yeah but he always talked like this
Something sounded weird with the audio but still great video.
yes, i'm glad i'm not the only one think so
This is supposed to be a podcast, the audio should be top notch.
@@deadlypyre yeah the audio is not up to par with Marques standard
@@deadlypyre i know that is why i was weirded out
@@shzammpatapon9865 what a shame
Good job
Well made and I agree definitely, never used the app store.
6:13 GNU/Linux users with package managers laughing in the background
Seriously. I was surprised when I found out how time-consuming and convoluted it was to download a damn Nvidia driver on Windows 10.
windows has a package manager winget that got added recently but I haven't seen anyone use it
I like Windows 11, It's a shame that I can't run it with my current laptop :(
The windows store has basically been only my Minecraft, Minecraft Dungeons and Xbox app installer when I reset a PC/had to get a new primary SSD due to dying.
This centre is became it supports android apps now which are majorly used in portrait orientation and apps are optimised for it so in order to fit and get extra space it’s in centre it’s funny for a early 2000 kid that things went from a computer to a smartphone and now it’s vice versa
What he's trying to say is, Microsoft is making it more usable with both touch input and legacy input.
When i was Updating My Bios Suddenly power went off for 15mins it was okay since motherboards have 2 bios in them but when i restarted the motherboard after 20 Mins the power went of again now i have a fucked up motherboard with no bios.... 😂 They Said they were making Wires Underground From Poles to clean up messy Internet wires
More touch optimized icons. Can be used with touch as well as mouse/ touchpad.
I have a pretty modern pc, but I had to tinker in my bios settings to make me Windows 11 compatible. I have a gaming PC but I am pretty new to building and pc stuff so it was quite scary going into my bios to make my pc windows 11 complient, but hey here I am now with official windows 11 running like a champ
i like this guy waaay more than the other guy
Personally I don't give a damn about the app store thing, if the Amazon apps work then more power to them. Me being a student, there have been times where I wish I had a specific mobile app that I needed on my PC and had to go to my phone to get. The app gap on Windows was a generational curse. What other way were they going to have regular mobile apps running because devs have been made up their mind on whether they wanted to make apps for Windows or not.
you can install apks
5:40 also region issues. a lot of apps and more specifically games are region locked and can't be downloaded specifically from the game store even if your device is compatible so side loading or going via another store like apkpure/tap tap/qooapp is the way to go
for example, none of nintendo's directly relased games, like mario kart tour, pixelmon, pokemon masters EX, dragalia lost and so on can be downloaded if you're from south africa
Speaking only about the app store, I feel like I'm one of the few people who use it regularly. I had a Windows 7 PC a long time ago, which was stolen from me (sad face) and didn't get another PC for many years. I skipped Windows 8 altogether (thank God) and now have a Windows 10 PC. I go to the Store to find apps first, such as Spotify or Audible, then go to the websites if I can't find it.
Disappointed at this show so decided to draw your attention to some points:
First and foremost, when a new version of an operating system arrives, drivers are the main concern.
As for the UI, I would say ditching flat design after these years is a proper move.
And how can you talk about something like windows store that have never used?
Is lighter? Is it as stable as it is expected to be? The technical menu is confusing like in win 10?
There are loads of questions that you don’t even bother to think about not some optional features like installing android apps or not …
It looks like phone? I thought it looked like a really sweet looking linux distro but with bloat lol
I think they should colour their icons. Specially in the settings menu. Because all of them look same at first glance. And it would be mush easier to find yellow half moon 🌙 icon to turn on sleep or focus mode. Instead only white icons.
I wonder how surface book touch screen translates to the apps.
Also, I think the whole point of the 'android app on windows' factor, is just 'edit in resolve, upload to instagram (or tiktok or whatever) and see it native kinda.'
A phone Windows 10 or 7... imagine trying to do anything with it.
Better UI should always be welcomed
How about this: how about they make another operating system just for the phone? You know, like how the iPhone doesn’t run on MacOS.
If they actually want “better UI”, they should make separate interfaces to fit the different devices, instead of this bullshit middle ground that pleases no one.
Microsoft got the PC interface perfectly fine back with Windows 95. I say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. And if Bill Gates absolutely NEEDS to make another hundred billion dollars, they can try giving the phones they’re own system, so they don’t mess up everything for the rest of their customers.
Many things are getting worse.
MY HERO
if you have a motherboard for custom built PC from the past few years or so you most likely have Firmware TPM built into your bios. for AMD the setting is most likely called fTPM and Intel its called PTT
I feel different about the store. I've always been sideloading apps in Windows. I'd love to have everything downloadable from the Store. Like, Chrome, Steam, Epicgames Launcher, Discord, WinRAR, Notepad ++ and everything else. It would be really easy and very new to Windows yes but we've been doing that in our phones so why should it be any different in PCs.
@@GodisGracious1031Ministriesyeah I know. But the possibility of it all being downloadable from a store is what excites me so I'll use the Microsoft store is what I was trying to say. When the numbers grow, those developers will put their apps in the store.
they trying to act like Mac lol
I'd preferably have the start menu on the left rather than center. Especially on a tablet or 2 in 1 simply because the center is much farther from the thumb.
good point.
Mkhbd or whatever his name is is an Apple advert💯
5:30
Linux users: Hey I've seen this one!
Windows users: What do you mean you've seen this? It's brand new.
(i'm referring to using an app store on the desktop, not running android apps)
MS and Apple: Should we go to an app store or browser?
Meanwhile Linux: Go to your terminal to add apps
Or store. Many distros have app stores frontends
Windows: Browser
Linux: App store, terminal, browser, source
I've been using windows 11 for a while now and I really like the UI
@8:50 you can now do it without pressing ctrl+shift+i
"They needed simplification for people to know how to use it" - I knew how to use windows since the beginning of the OS. Seems that people today are much dumber then they were a few decades ago. As my friend said: "Every year phones are smarter, and people are dumber".
It’s not acting like a phone. It’s acting like MacOS lmao.
since the release of m1 chip, ability to run ios apps on apple silicon macs natively is a really big deal for developers, the only option for microsoft is to embracing android on W11 but due to the architecture difference between x86-64 and ARM, id say don't expect too much
You're great at interviews
Get guests for your podcast
Windows 11 is turning simply into a android OS.
let an American talk without a script, and they will say 'like' a million times a minute.
2:39 “or are there future things in mind, I don’t really know” mmmmhmmmm
I think Microsoft can make mobile apps work well, apps designed for touch.
We already have a touchpads or trackpads on PC, finding a way to allow it perform certain touch inputs through that could work.
Quick look for pc allows me to scroll images with my mouse or trackpad (using gestures) when I'm zoomed in.. Windows default picture app doesn't allow. I'd have to click and drag..
So for scrolling, that could come in handy, I mean, windows has all the gestures... You could take your mouse over the app and start performing these actions.. Right click for double tap, click for tap..
If it is a "scary thing" to know your own PC's settings in the BIOS, you should not use a PC. Use a tablet or a phone instead, but not a PC FFS!
disagree, even a techy like me, i really dont like to go into the BIOS, you can mess your pc up if u change something accidentally, Jen who needs a windows to do office work shouldn't have to know how to go into hardware settings and know what the confusing terms are for settings that could brick her pc.
its rightfully a scary place, it should be to an extent. computers aren't cheap, and they hold a lot of important information. you don't need to be poking around the brains if you don't have to. is it useful to learn? yes. does everyone need to know how? no.
stop gatekeeping pcs to people who care about overclocking and hardware preferences. like, you don't need to be a mechanic to drive a car.
@@itskoby "mess your pc up". Than, you are not a "techy", sorry for enlightening you.
@@itskoby You gotta learn what's in the bios at least in the basic settings if you intend to use a PC for a long-term use. If you don't, I don't see any other reason other than just plain laziness.
@@itskoby LMAO, tinkering in the BIOS is not equivalent to being a mechanic... LMAO... IF you mess up a setting just load optimized defaults and reboot! You are good to go... Only way you can mess up a bios is during installing/flashing new bios and power goes off. You need to learn basics one way another otherwise you will have to bring your PC to shop for every simple bios issue and OS boot issue. Trust me I learn this the hard way.
@@ishananaguru Mess up the Secure Boot keys that are required for booting Windows and if you are unlucky enough to be on a Intel CPU without any GPU and only have a NVIDIA/AMD GPU you will be forced to spend money to fix the system.
I had to convert my system drive's NTFS partition to a GUID in Safe Mode using CMD, enable Secure Boot with TPM in the BIOS, in order to satisfy the PC Health Checker since it never told me what was wrong. I had to figure everything out myself. I'm sure there's a smoother way of rolling it out than this, even for the devs.
Why don't you place a TV which shows the big waveform logo in the background, That way you can also mirror your laptop whenever required
It's like Windows 8 part 2 but without live tiles, to change connection or sound output you need EXTRA step towards the new control center and that's sucks since desktop has large size screen unlike smartphone.
Popcorntime on my laptop... Pure awesomeness
The guy on the left is correct-
I'd love to try out the beta, but I barely know what a computer's Bios is.
From what I understand of stuff like video game consoles and computers, I think it's like a layer that's deeper than the OS? Idk I'll just wait for the official launch of 11
A computer bios is something that chooses which os operating system to boot in let's say you have two operating systems on your computer through the bios you can flip between the two the bios also does a check for your system components make sure everything still there and Nths broken before letting your operating system do the rest
Only use for Android apps on Windows i think of is devs building apps no longer have to run a virtual machine. Can just build and run the apk. Might be a great dev experience.
If they had the start button in the center why didn't they just allow us to put icons on the left of the button so i can have work icons on one side and fun icons on the other side....
My use case for Android apps on Windows 11 is for all the smart home and security apps, None of them seem to have desktop apps except Ring Doorbell app
