According to the report, the Wall Street Journal Alphabet (parent company Google) plans already in 2017 lead to the merger of two of its systems – Chrome OS and Android – into one. The new universal system is to be possible to install on any kind of device.
Universal applications?
Journalists Tech Insider are trying to imagine how such a universal system could look like in practice. The answer is a Windows 10 for smartphones, the interface and the display of application is very similar to the desktop. Microsoft Windows 10 also introduces universal applications, ie those which will operate basically on any device: PC, tablet or smartphone.
Water from fire
In the case of Chrome and Android connection it is neither simple nor obvious. The first of the systems to interface completely, “a desktop”, the second – touch. Anyone who has tried to install the x86 version of Android on a computer knows that in fact it is inconvenient solution. Little popularity of Windows on tablets also testifies to the fact that small and tactile devices require completely different solutions.
One of the companies that clearly demarcates its interface is Apple – OS X is not trying to “pretend” iOS and vice versa.
The combination of Chrome OS and Android, if done correctly, but it may solve some problems. Chromebooks, which comes, will be more practical and useful. But a combination of systems Google ensures that the computers such as Pixel will become as useful as the Surface Book ? Please provide feedback.
