Windows 10 or Windows 11? Which one is for you?
Is windows 11 really better than 10? Should I upgrade to windows 11? what are the disadvantages of windows 11? Is windows 11 slower than windows 10? Is windows 11 better for gaming?_

I can go on and on but the questions wont end anytime soon, so after doing a lot of research online and using windows 11 myself I made this blog to save your time!!

Although Microsoft never wanted to extend the windows series after the 10th edition for some reason they decided to do so but it may have not proven to be a very wise decision. According to the recent statistics released by Microsoft itself only 23% of windows users have upgraded to windows 11 while the other 75% users are still on windows 10 and those numbers are huge compared to the previous upgrades. So, what is the reason many users are hesitating to upgrade their OS to the latest version?!

The reasons are listed below:

**CONS**

**1. SYSTEM REQUIREMENT**

The system requirement for windows 11 is way much more higher than any of the previous windows. The memory required is 4 Gb which is almost 3x than that required for windows 10 and since many people still use very old machines it is not supported for them. Also windows 11 requires [TPM 2](https://www.pcmag.com/news/what-is-a-tpm-and-why-do-i-need-one-for-windows-11) for high end security but still it is not supported by many other systems or I would say the majority of system that uses the Windows OS.

**2. GAMING**

Although windows 11 was designed to be better for gaming than windows 10 but there has been some reporting of fps drops while gaming which is now officially been recognized by Microsoft and which might be fixed in the following updates


**3. The change in the OG windows UI**

For some reason Microsoft changed the UI in windows 11 and for many users it felt very unfamiliar and for someone who professionally works on a pc on a daily basis it increases the time taken and takes a huge amount of time for the brain to completely adapt the new graphics on the screen. Microsoft tried the same for windows 8 which backfired but still Microsoft took the risk and now it looks like again it was a flop.

**PROS**

**1. Security**

There might be many cons in windows 11 but the one thing that impresses me as someone who cares about privacy is its security. Microsoft have introduced many modern and proven security features in windows 11 to improve its overall security.

Some of the featured include:

The Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
A Virtualization-Based Security (VBS)
Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI)
The UEFI Secure Boot

**2. New convenient features**

Since there are a lot of cool and time saving features in windows 11 so I am attaching an article for you guys if you really wish to know them and also it will save me some time.

So that is it everyone, I have tried my best to present every possible point about the topic which I researched on extensively. If you really found this blog interesting, I will be posting more such blogs in the future which is gonna be completely free to learn from.

Thanks for your time everyone.

May the god watch over you!!
