The Zorin OS developers announced today the release and general availability of Zorin OS 16.1 as the first point release to the latest Zorin OS 16 operating system series launched in August 2021.

Zorin OS 16.1 is here about seven months after Zorin OS 16 and comes with a newer kernel, namely Linux 5.13, from the recently released Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS (Focal Fossa) operating system. This provides users with better compatibility for newer hardware, including NVIDIA RTX 3050 GPUs, 12th-Gen Intel Core processors, Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense controllers, Framework laptop, Apple Magic Mouse 2, as well as other devices.

Also new is the latest and greatest LibreOffice 7.3 office suite, along with newer versions of several pre-installed apps and core components, including the Mesa 21.2.6 graphics stack from Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS and Ubuntu 21.10, providing users with a more feature-rich desktop experience from the get-go.
