According to the official changelog, there are quite a few new features and a lot of bug fixes arriving with the two new Windows 11 builds. One of the most important and new features that will elevate the user experience of the Galaxy Book with the S Pen is the update to the Handwriting Engine and the Handwriting Embedded Inking Control.

The new update noticeably supports GB18030-2022 conformance level 2, which allows it to meet the level 3 requirements. Apart from this, the updates also fix some issues with the Windows Push Notification Services (WNS), make downloading the Windows Autopilot policy more resilient, make Country and Operator Settings Asset (COSA) profiles up to date, and much more.
