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.
Osterloh explained that Google has traditionally used different platforms for different devices — Android for smartphones and Chrome OS for PCs. Now, the company is collaborating with Qualcomm on a new project to create a unified platform that combines elements of both systems.
### Merging Mobile and PC Platforms
The goal of this project is to establish a common technical foundation for Google’s products on PCs and desktop computing systems. Osterloh emphasized that Android has the potential to serve across all computing categories, bridging the gap between mobile and PC experiences.
Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon also expressed excitement about the development, calling it “incredible” and describing it as a significant step toward unifying mobile and PC platforms.
### AI Integration with Android PCs
In addition to platform unification, Google plans to integrate its Gemini AI model with Android-powered PCs. Osterloh highlighted this integration as an opportunity to leverage Google’s extensive work on its AI stack across devices.
While Google has yet to announce a specific timeline for the launch of Android laptops, the company’s public acknowledgment of the project suggests such devices could arrive soon.
Stay tuned for more updates as Google continues to innovate at the intersection of mobile and desktop computing.
