Windows 11 version 24H1 may be coming in April 2024

Dell's XPS marketing and tech specs mention Windows 11 version 24H1, and says it will be available for download in April 2024, and in August 2024 for factory install. Perhaps it is the first mention of the "Moment 5" update in commercials.

ℹ️ Update: Windows 11 24H1 is not coming this April, but we are getting Windows 11 24H2 in September or October. Also, it is indeed 24H2 that will be required for Wi-Fi 7. Dell's slide contains a typo, the information about 24H1 is not correct.

At the annual consumer electronics show CES 2024, Dell introduced an updated line of XPS laptops, which received the latest Intel Core Ultra processors, improved displays and a number of other changes. Sales of new products should begin very soon.

The XPS 13 9340 succeeds the XPS 13 Plus, which was considered one of the best laptops on the market. This model features a stylish aluminum chassis, an edge-to-edge keyboard with a dedicated Windows Copilot key , and a seamless glass touchpad with haptic feedback and multiple touch functions. The weight of the device is approximately 1.2 kg.

The XPS 14 9440 retains the key benefits of the older XPS 15 models that made it such a compelling option for creatives. It differs from the XPS 13 not only in its 14.5-inch display, but also in the presence of Nvidia GeForce RTX discrete graphics. The device also features a seamless glass touchpad with haptic feedback and multiple touch functions.

However, both devices will be equipped with Wi-Fi 6E, while the new promo material highlights Wi-Fi 7, which, according to Dell, requires the mentioned update, Windows 11 version 24H1.

While there are no extra details on the upcoming OS update, now we have the release time frame. Whether this will be a Moment 5 update or something completely new, only time will tell.

Another thing to note is that major network hardware vendors didn't yet update Wi-Fi 7 specs for a specific Windows 11 release. For example, Intel lists Windows 11 64-bit as the only requirement.

  1. I love OEMs projecting when MS will release the new Windows version, like HP on first release of Windows 10 (1507) 9 years ago, now Dell for Windows 11 24H2, I bet it is just another enablement package for 22/23H2, not the twice a year “big chungus” update Windows 10 doing around 2017 and 2018.
