Windows Central editors tested Microsoft’s new operating system on laptops with foldable screens. The reviews concluded that Windows 11 contains many unresolved issues for devices with this type of form factor. There are many negative points.
The amount of RAM of the iPhone 14 series revealed
Editors who tested the operating system on ASUS ZenBook Fold 17 and Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 laptops are of the opinion that Windows 11 is definitely not designed for such scenarios. In particular, it cannot figure out how the information should be displayed in different parts of the flexible screen.
In addition to all these, the implementation of basic functions is also insufficient. Testers failed to correctly place the desktop in the upper half of the screen and the virtual keyboard in equal parts at the bottom. In addition, some problems arise when using the device in landscape orientation.
Doesn’t split keyboard, doesn’t auto fullscreen
When using the laptop in book mode, the operating system does not automatically open the applications in full screen or open side by side. However, it should be noted that it does not divide the touch keyboard into two, similar to the iPad, so that text can be typed with the thumbs.
Due to these problems, manufacturers develop special software tools for such devices that are built on the system. However, it is a fact that these negatively affect the performance of the device. It is stated that it is not possible to eliminate the above-mentioned deficiencies in the near future.
