Microsoft's recent benchmarks indicate that Windows 11 greatly outperforms Windows 10, claiming a performance boost of 2.3 times and improved battery life. These benchmarks, based on tests from December 2024, show consistent advantages in battery life, Office productivity, and web performance for Windows 11. However, the comparisons are complicated due to the exclusive use of Intel processors in tests, where performance results vary significantly by chip generation. Microsoft acknowledges hardware contributes to these improvements but believes it is not the sole factor influencing performance differences.
Claims about Windows 11 performance have been around for some time. In 2021, when Windows 11 was released, Microsoft stated that the new operating system makes better use of hardware.
The benchmarks are not entirely comparable. The test results show that Windows 11 PCs score better on battery life, Office usage, and web performance.
