Windows 11: waiting for Copilot+ PCs
Experts think Windows 11 will become more popular in the next few years. This is mainly because Windows 10 won’t get updates after October 14, 2025.
At first, not many people switched to Windows 11. It needed newer computers with special features that older ones didn’t have. So, lots of people kept using Windows 10, which still has updates to keep it safe and working well.
But now, things are changing. New laptops with Windows 11 are coming out. They use smart computer chips that make them fast and long-lasting. They can also do cool things with artificial intelligence.
The downside? Right now, these new computers are only fancy laptops. They cost at least €999, which is too expensive for many people.
