Google is currently working on a completely new operating system. His plan would be to merge Chrome OS and Android to create an ultimate OS for tablets and hybrid devices, like Chromebooks.
A serious competitor for iPadOS
Google plans to merge Chrome OS with Android to launch a unified operating system intended to compete with Apple’s iPad and its formidable iPadOS. This project aims to combine the strengths of the two platforms to offer a better user experience, particularly on tablets and hybrid devices. This initiative could signal the end of Chromebooks as we know them in favor of devices optimized by this new solution.
Last June, Google confirmed that it was bringing certain aspects of Android into Chrome OS. This time, the document mentions a total merger of the two operating systems. The objective is clear, to compete with the iPad, the undisputed leader in this category. A titanic challenge that Google has always left aside.
The report highlights that this strategy could benefit the Android ecosystem by increasing the number of users and making it more attractive to developers. In parallel, Android Headlines reports that Google is developing a high-end laptop under the Pixel brand, which could include the new Android platform intended for desktop computers.
Google has not yet officially confirmed its intention to gradually replace Chrome OS with Android. The company declined to comment on this matter. She is currently focusing on a more delicate question: American justice wants to force her to separate from Chrome to end its monopoly on the search market.
