Your next PC will be amazing

Your next PC will do more and go further, no matter which one you choose. The latest tablets are lightweight and blazing fast, with extended battery life for greater mobility. Convertibles give you the style and mobility of a tablet, and can also be snapped onto a keyboard and turned into a full-power laptop. And our all-in-ones provide a new level of power and style in a desktop PC.

With radically updated designs, more raw processing power, touch-enabled displays, and startup times of less than ten seconds in many cases, it’s a brand new era for PCs.

Hit the road in style

Built with innovative, ultra-light materials like duralumin, and with a new focus on beautiful design, the new Windows tablets and laptops are ready to slide into your bag and go where you go.

Many new tablets and laptops enable their apps to react when you tilt or rotate the screen, automatically adapt to changes in lighting, and even let you touch two devices together to share a photo or a web page.

Window 8 Review

The Start screen is all you

Each tile on Start is connected to a person, app, website, folder, playlist, or whatever else is important to you. Pin as many tiles to Start as you like and move them around so it’s just the way you want it.

This isn’t the usual wall of static icons: Tiles animate with the latest information. Status updates, weather forecasts, Tweets, and more—you’ll see live updates before you even open a single app.

See something, share something

Your photos, websites, that funny video you just saw: Pretty much anything you’re looking at, you can share with others. Instantly. There’s no need to interrupt what you’re doing, copy what you want to share, open another app, and paste it in. Just swipe in from the right and tap or click Share to immediately send it in email or post it to Facebook.

Touch and mouse

Windows is perfect for PCs with touchscreens, those that have a mouse and keyboard, and those with both. Whatever kind of PC you choose, you’ll discover fast and fluid ways to switch between apps, move things around, and move smoothly from one place to another.

Zip around, get it done

Discover fast and fun ways to get around

  • Pinch and stretch to zoom in and out. Get a global view of everything that’s on your screen, and slide back and forth to find what you’re looking for.
  • Swipe in from the left to switch between recently used apps.
  • Swipe in from the right to get back to Start and to other things you do often, like searching, sharing, and changing your settings.
  • Swipe in from the bottom to see navigation controls for any app you’re in.

You can easily do all these things with a mouse, too.
