Buying new laptop - need advice
Hi All,
I am using windows 10 laptop right now, as the support is ending in few weeks, looking to buy new laptop.
Unfortunately existing laptop is not eligible to upgrade to windows 11 so i have to buy new one.
Question is should i buy windows 11 laptop now OR wait till windows 12 is released. Also if i buy a windows 11 laptop now, how to find if it is eligible to upgrade to windows 12 once that OS is released.
Appreciate your inputs, thanks in advance.

If you need a new laptop now and want to stay current, buying a Windows 11 device is a good choice. Future upgrade to Windows 12 is generally not hardware-dependent but based on compatibility, which is usually maintained for devices that meet current standards.
