Google is set to bring Android to personal computers, a move that could significantly impact the tech industry.
The announcement was made by Rick Osterloh, Google’s Senior Vice President of Devices and Services, during the Snapdragon Summit. He explained that Google has traditionally used different platforms for different devices—Android for smartphones and Chrome OS for PCs. Now, in collaboration with Qualcomm, they are working on a new project to create a unified platform that combines elements of both systems.
### Merging Mobile and PC Platforms
Osterloh emphasized that the goal is to establish a common technical foundation for Google’s products across PCs and desktop computing systems. He also hinted at Android’s potential to cater to all computing categories, marking a major step toward platform integration.
Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon expressed enthusiasm about this development, calling it “incredible” and describing it as a significant move toward merging mobile and PC platforms.
### AI Integration with Android PCs
In addition to this platform unification, Google plans to integrate its Gemini AI model with Android PCs. Osterloh remarked, “This is another way we can leverage all of the great work we’re doing together on our AI stack, our full stack.”
While Google has not yet announced an official release date for the first Android-powered laptops, the public acknowledgment of this project suggests these devices may be hitting the market sooner than expected.
Stay tuned for more updates as this exciting development unfolds.
