Google is allegedly merging Chrome OS into Android

19 November 2024
The reason makes no sense to us, but maybe it will to you.

Sort by:

so in future models, they will no longer call it chromebook.
it's an androidbook after this change

        What about Desktop Mode in Android. Most hotkeys work in Windows are not working in Android.

            What Google meant to say is that Chrome OS is killed, because nobody cares about it.

                          Since a few month now...
                          A few month after the launch of ChromeOS I said that Android and ChromeOS will merged.
                          Nobody believed me 😂
                          And now finally some reports, don't know if it's better or worse.

                            Chrome OS has always had an image problem and is not popular with the public, most don’t even know about it unlike Android, so I see why Google would want to do this. Basically it’s going to be iPadOS.

                              Good chrome os never made any sense. Both windows and macos were ages ahead. Consolidating to the one useful IP makes sense. Let's hope this merger will make Android more useful as a desktop os, finally. Chrome OS was inadvertently keeping it back for ages despite having the capacities to be a great desktop os as well. Say connecting my phone to a screen giving me a robust desktop experience (similar to what dex tried to do, but an actual desktop os instead)...

                                  That would be an upgrade considering arms laptop are getting better.

With the CrowdStrike attack, Windows OS has lost the trust of consumers for the desktop/laptop form factor. But what is the alternative? Linux? Still not there as an alternative. So making Android as an alternative makes lot of sense.

                                        I understand the alleged EVIL intention behind it....

                                        Same way as Apple uses iOS/iPhone to promote Mac OS and other Apple Devices...

                                        Google trying to get benefit of Android into Chrome OS. I don't know who uses Chrome OS. Even after so many years Chrome OS is failed far behind. And now they want to use Android and (mis)use Android users...for sake of Chrome :(
