Google is preparing to enter the tablet market to compete with the iPad by merging Android and Chrome OS, potentially creating a unified and advanced platform.
According to "Phone Arena," Google has attempted to influence the tablet market with both Android and Chrome OS, but neither has been able to compete with the iPad. Android was ideal for media consumption, while Chrome OS was better for productivity, but neither managed to integrate both sides seamlessly.
It seems Google is now ready to combine the best features of both systems. Sources indicate that Google is working on a long-term project to fully integrate Chrome OS into Android, creating a unified platform that can be used on both tablets and laptops, thus offering a unified Android operating system.
This move makes perfect sense for Google, especially as rumors about it have circulated for some time. It will allow the company to focus its resources on a single platform, which will help deliver a consistent user experience.
Additionally, this integration would make it easier for developers to design apps that work across both tablets and laptops, addressing one of the current limitations of Android and Chrome OS.
Although Chromebooks can run Android apps, users face issues due to app incompatibility with larger screens, leading to numerous challenges. Furthermore, some apps in the Play Store are intentionally blocked from working on certain Chrome OS devices, even when specifications and screen resolution are compatible.
However, if Google can successfully execute this plan, it could mark a significant shift in the tablet market and provide a platform capable of competing with the iPad while resolving app compatibility issues.
