Google Plans to Integrate ChromeOS into Android for Unified Platform

This strategic shift aims to strengthen Google's position against Apple's iPad by merging ChromeOS with Android.

Google is reportedly working on a multi-year project to merge ChromeOS into Android, creating a more unified platform.
The initiative is part of Google's strategy to better compete with Apple's iPad by enhancing Android's capabilities for larger screens.
Future Chromebooks are expected to ship with a desktop-optimized version of Android instead of ChromeOS.
Reports suggest Google is developing a high-end Pixel-branded laptop, codenamed 'Snowy,' which may run the new Android platform.
Google's efforts include improving keyboard, mouse, and external display support for Android, along with features like multiple desktop spaces.
