We expect to finally see the company’s latest operating system and a bunch of new improvements and features. Of course, today is also the day when we’ll find out if the leaks over the past few months are true or if the Redmond giant has something else in store.
The big event is today, June 24, and it starts at 8 am PT, 11 am ET, and 4 pm BST. Our Australian readers can set a reminder for 1 am AEST on June 25. Be sure to join us, as we’ll cover the full reveal from start to finish to give you all the important highlights as they happen.
What to expect during the Windows 11 launch event
If you missed the latest tech news, the big M is most likely preparing a completely new operating system called Windows 11, faster and better than its predecessor. Despite the fact that a few years ago Microsoft suggested that Windows 10 will be its last OS, things have changed.

- A completely new set of Wallpapers
- A different sound scheme, with brand-new startup sounds
- Redesigned Start Menu with more customization options
- More screen options, including top/bottom split screen
- A native Dark Mode that can be enabled directly from Settings
- Improved performance for low-end devices and increased FPS for gamers
- New features and look for Microsoft Edge
- And lots of new tweaks, improvements, and design changes to the OS
