Citing sources Digitimes said, the appointment of the head of Chrome OS, Sundar Pichai, is taking over the top position of Android to expand Google's ability by launching a laptop running its own operating system. me Meanwhile, some analysts predict that Google will merge Chrome and Android, but information from DigiTimes shows a completely different move.

If the laptop named Androidbook exists, the device will be able to support touch to make the most of the power of this mobile operating system, allowing users instant access to the large application library on Google Play, a more attractive option than a Chromebook.

In February, Google launched a Chromebook Pixel with a touch screen, but it didn't run Android apps, along with an expensive price tag ($ 1,299 for Wi-Fi only) or $ 1,499. for version that supports 4G LTE. Therefore, the launch of Androidbook is expected to provide a much more competitive selling price.

If Google develops a new Android-based laptop, it's likely that the company will disclose this information at the Google I / O 2013 event that will take place in San Francisco in May.
