Google is developing central processing units for its Chromebooks and tablets running the Chrome operating system, sources told Nikkei Asia. The internet giant plans to start manufacturing chips in 2023. In this case, the processors of the British company ARM will be taken as a basis. Google previously announced the production of its own processors for Pixel smartphones.
Google was inspired by the success of its competitors from Apple in developing processors for smartphones and computers, the sources told the publication. Apple has been making its own chips for the iPhone since 2010. Google will develop microprocessors for laptops and tablets that run Chrome OS.
According to interlocutors, Google's management has high hopes for the new Pixel 6 smartphone, which is due out in October 2021. The company has reserved 50% more production capacity than in 2019, before the start of the pandemic.
In early August, it became known that Google has abandoned Qualcomm processors for its Pixel smartphones and will develop the production of its own Google Tensor chipsets. For this, the architecture of solutions of the British company ARM will be used. ARM processors consume less power than their counterparts and are used everywhere – in smartphones, tablets and laptops.
Earlier “Secret” wrote that Google is working on an application that allows you to quickly transfer data from iPhone to Android-device. It is assumed that iOS users will be able to copy information and software using a Wi-Fi connection. Switch to Android should be available in the App Store soon.
