After 7 years on my current Lenovo high-end business laptop which has been superb but now dying, I am in the market for a new one that preferably has a tablet detachable action like the Lenovo x1 and I am wondering weather an Android version or system would be as good as and would it work office just as well as Windows. I would actually appreciate any constructive feedback for something that's a quality unit and going to go the distance in business 4 to 5 years. Regards Tony

      Really like the idea of adding Android OS to a CHrome tablet. Seems like the apps market if really exploding. We may seem lost without out apps now and Android. B-)

        Works well on my Asus Chromebook Flip,
        It is only developer version so it does crash sometimes and many apps still do not work...but when it does it is very smooth and stable,better than on the phone.
        hope it will also work on my older Acer C720P ... that is even better PC than the Asus.

          Microsoft W10 Fan, 19 Jun 2016Hail the new King W10. Junk the IOS/ANDROID OS COZ W10 is ... moreKing ??? in which way just look at the numbers with 2% market share and they officially ditched Windows 10 mobile platform.And it was criticized for forcing users to download Win 10 without their permission ... F%*$ing strategy to increase market share...
          Microsoft will touch the ground soon...

            My bro has the ASUS Chromebook Flip but he doesn't use it anymore, I think I'll play around with it after I update it with the Play Store included.

              I would like to know the performance of android apps on Chromebooks, if it is performing better, then there is some issue with android. If the performance is week, why do we need chrome os, just install android?
