Look like this thread has been dead for so long.

Just got a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. As its name implies, the price is Ultra expensive. I've been a user of the Note series since Note 4 but then changed to Huawei's Mate series. After Huawei was banned from Android, I did used Oppo for some time. But Oppo is not good enough, so today I turn back to Samsung Galaxy Note again.

I am guessing Galaxy Note has a better note-taking function with its S-Pen.

The S-Pen is one of the reasons I return to the Note family. When I started using the Note 4, I did a test on its camera by taking a photo of the $100 note then zoom in the photo. Guess what! I can read the phrase "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" on Franklin's collar! The smoothness of the Note series can only be matched by Huawei's Mate series but Notes are much more expensive. You can see how Trump's entities list has affected Huawei.

Sorry to wake up this long sleeping thread but Windows 11 is out. Have anyone tried it yet? I wanna try it but my computer is for work. I can't afford uninstall/reinstall it again and again.

Not yet. I have considered upgrading and even changed my BIOS from Legacy to UEFI to enable TPM but I'm still failing the PC Health Check because I have a 1st generation AMD Ryzen.

Technically, there are workarounds since my PC is above spec but I'm lazy, and there really isn't a good reason to upgrade. The new OS only seems to offer aesthetic changes to the UI. So I'm probably going to wait since Windows 10 will be officially supported until 2025 and Direct X13 isn't out yet for gamers either.

If you are really curious and want to test out Windows 11, you could download VirtualBox and run it within that program.

Vow, my BIOS run UEFI since Windows 7 as I could remember and my old laptop is still running Windows 7 up to now though I seldom turn it on. I'm satisfied with Windows 10 running my Lenovo T570 and will keep it running unless Windows 11 offer something exciting.

I have been running it for a while. It feels a bit more stable than other versions of Windows did at this point. The one thing that I have noticed is that I have seen none of the Forza Horizon 5 stability issues, that others have reported. Not sure if that is the OS or how I built the machine.

I haven't upgraded but I heard that this new windows 11 has changed some things for the worse. Such as not allowing to right click on the taskbar and open the task manager (deal breaker for me), and hiding behind menus how to remove the programs which are in the taskbar.

Could also be wrong for the above, but I just lost all interest when I heard that Microsoft is trying to restrict us with these "improvements"
