Davids Windows 11 review
Overall windows 11 is easy to use and one of the globes leading operating system and as so makes my workflow easy.
PROSWindows 11 is compatible with most if not all hardware on the market ranging from smart phones to printers, Keyboards, Mice and many more, and as a gamer no other operating system can be used as an alternative.
CONSWindows is ram intensive compared to mac and Linux, it also is a paid operating system whist the others are free.
Reasons for switching to Windows 11
Windows is compatible with almost all hardware and in an office environment it was the better option from Linux due to the need of using printers that were not supported on Linux.

Good, but not as expected
The experience has been good. But there are some shortcuts that take away some productivity when the user is trying to access to simple functions.
PROSThe new user interface is beautiful. The system runs fast, and it does keep an edge over Mac alternatives in managing apps, and most of the software existing out there.
CONSThere are several shortcuts working far from expected and represented a step backward in comparison with Windows 10. Things in the task bar need a right click instead of the traditional one. Looking for a network demands to open the network software instead of deploying the visible ones as it used to happen straightaway. It is not supported by many desktops, even more powerful than some newest alternatives. There is no Android apps support as suggested when first launched.
Reason for choosing Windows 11
It did represent a newer version of my favorite operating system. And it was suggested there will be Android Apps support.
Reasons for switching to Windows 11
I always found windows to be the best desktop alternative out there by many reasons. Even giving format to a flash drive is difficult to achieve by using a mac. In another hand, many required software programs are not available in Linux.

Poor support from Windows
My laptop and mobile phone both us the same modem - like many people. The phone is an Android, and my laptop uses Windows. Laptop Windows crashes from time to time, with a message that the wifi adapter is disabled. Android phone is unaffected. Yet Windows support refuses to accept that the problem is with their product. Support gave up replying to my emails. Disappointing if they want to be the standard.
PROSWindows has become a standard product, used by many organisations and individuals.
CONSIt is clunky, slow and frustrating. Support doesn't really help.

An overhaul from windows 10 that's worth a shot
Not the biggest update so far, but good start, the start menu and smart app control are the only thing notable in the upgrade, a few tweaks here and there, and the only thing that you do love is there isn't any constant updates or pop ups that force you to update the OS. 8/10 recommend if you want a change.
PROSI love the the start menu overhaul and the snap assist feature where you can have multiple windows where you can multitask at ease, i also like the updated security measures, especially smart app control.
CONSThere are a few bugs but one of them i noticed was that if you were using sticky notes or any other typing apps, or even what's app web, the text you're writing just disappears, you keep writing but you can't see it unless you hit send or restart your pc.
Reasons for switching to Windows 11
I wanted a change of pace, and a feeling of change, so i only installed it on my personal PC to try it out, and i might upgrade my work laptops to windows 11 soon.

It's a more secure OS with some nice productivity enhancements.
Overall, my experience with Windows 11 is a very positive one. I've been primarily a Windows user since the early or mid-1990s and have always looked forward to the added features of the latest Windows version - except Windows ME, which was a pointless disaster in my humble opinion.
PROSThe added security features and strong integration with the users' Microsoft account.
CONSThe lack of tabbed browsing in file Explorer.
Reason for choosing Windows 11
There's too little control over the macOS and the Apple ecosystem is far too expensive for what you actually get. Linux Mint is an attractive possibility, but Linux needs someone with experience to work with it effectively. There's too many rabbit holes to disappear into when trying to get things to work. I've been using Windows since the early 1990s so I'm used to the way it works.
