Microsoft is keen to see as many users as possible upgrade to Windows 11, something we’ve highlighted before. But even though Microsoft just extended Windows 10 security updates for another year, the company still wants you to upgrade to Windows 11 sooner than later.
In a Windows Experience blog post from earlier this week, Yusuf Mehdi—Executive Vice President and Consumer Chief Marketing Officer at Microsoft—wrote that “Windows 11 PCs are up to 2.3x faster than Windows 10 PCs.”
The claim is based on benchmarking results from the Geekbench 6 Multi-Core measurement tool, which could be seen as misleading as it doesn’t entirely reflect real-world usage. For example, it’s been shown that Windows 10 has better gaming performance than Windows 11, which is a common argument for sticking with the older operating system.
Meanwhile, the blog post also argues in favor of upgrading to Windows 11 by highlighting increased security due to solutions like TPM 2.0 and Smart App Control. Microsoft claims a 62 percent reduction in security incidents with Windows 11, but that’s comparing new computers running Windows 11 to older computers running Windows 10.
