Microsoft Windows 11

Microsoft is releasing a new window to enhance users’ experience. It is currently rolling out a Windows 11 upgrade that will bring new features and developments in the current version.

However, the users will not be forced to download Windows 11 if they don’t feel like it and can stick to their current Windows 10 only. For now, either user can download and install Windows 11 or can click on the Stay on Windows 10 for now if they don’t wish to upgrade to the latest version.

If you will click on the download and install tab then your current Windows 10 PC OS will be upgraded to new Windows 11.

Here are the new features of Windows 11

  1. Hardware Check
    If you have a brand new laptop or PC, it must be compatible with Windows 11 and may even come with it preloaded. However, problems may develop with previous versions of PCs since their hardware may not fulfil the criteria of Windows 11.

    The primary problem, though, is CPU compatibility. If your computer has an Intel CPU from the 7th generation or before, the newest update will not work with it.
  2. Might Lose Some of the Features
    There are some features that you may like and don’t want to remove. The reason may be anything from liking the feature to relying on them for the whole. But upgrading to Windows 11 can lead you to lose multiple features.

    For example, in Windows 10, the taskbar may currently be docked at the top or on either side of the screen, but in Windows 11, it can only be docked at the bottom. The capability of dragging a file onto the taskbar and pinning it as a shortcut will also be removed as part of the update. There are plenty of additional similar features, and if you are unwilling to give them up, you may choose to postpone the update.
  3. Hardware and Software Compatibility
    Windows 11 was released two months ago, and we shouldn’t even expect a bug-free operating system. Even after extensive testing, a few customers who have already downloaded Windows 11 are experiencing flaws that may bother you.

    However, Microsoft is keeping an eye on all of the issues that are preventing consumers from using Windows 11 and is working to resolve them as soon as possible.

A renowned tipster, Evan Blass, has provided enthusiasts with an early look at the design and colour choices of the Samsung Galaxy M35, ahead of its highly anticipated debut in the Indian market. The smartphone is set to arrive in three distinct colour variations – grey, light blue, and dark blue, which show striking similarities with the Galaxy A35, suggesting a possible rebranding strategy by Samsung.

The leaked image showcases the Galaxy M35 with a vertically aligned triple rear camera setup, positioned at the top left corner alongside an LED flash integrated into what appears to be a plastic back. The Galaxy M35 introduces a sleeker and more modern look with a hole punch selfie camera cutout, departing from the water drop style notch seen on its predecessor.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy M35 is expected to boast a substantial 6000mAh battery capacity, surpassing its counterpart, the Galaxy A35, which contains 5000mAh. This enhancement in battery power indicates Samsung’s commitment to delivering extended usage durations for its consumers. 

Moreover, specific specifications are yet to be confirmed by Samsung, but reports suggest that the Galaxy M35 could feature a 6.6-inch display and run on an Exynos 1380 chipset paired with 6 GB of RAM, ensuring seamless performance for users across various tasks and applications. 

Despite bearing a resemblance to the Galaxy A35, the leaked image also highlights subtle differences between the two models, notably in the design of the volume and power buttons, as well as the location of the SIM tray. Such nuances indicate the potential distinction in user experience and functionality between the two devices.

As excitement grows for the upcoming release of the Samsung Galaxy M35, fans and tech enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for more information from the company about the phone’s specifications, price, and when it will be available. Stay tuned for more updates in the days or weeks leading up to the official unveiling of the Galaxy M35.
