Google-branded Chromebooks aren't actually dead, says hardware exec
After telling press at Mobile World Congress (MWC) that Google has "no plans for Google-branded laptops," Google hardware senior vice-president Rick Osterloh has taken to Twitter to assure the masses that Google-branded Chromebooks will, in fact, alive on.
"Google's ain Chromebooks aren't 'dead' as has been reported," tweets Osterloh. "They will live on, nosotros only have no plans to share at this time."
Though this may exist a simple misunderstanding as Osterloh is painting information technology, his argument from MWC did seem to speak to a shift in priority for the company.
Hey all, Google's own Chromebooks aren't "dead" as has been reported. They will live on, we just take *no plans to share at this fourth dimension* 😉

TechCrunch quoted Osterloh as saying: "Chrome Os is a huge initiative in the company. Google hasn't backed away from laptops. We have the number two market share in the U.S. and U.K. — merely we have no plans for Google-branded laptops."
By Google-branded laptops, the executive was referring to the company's Pixel line, which saw two iterations. The statement too indicated the cease of the line for the rumoured 'Pixel three' laptop running 'Andromeda Bone' — a hybrid of Chrome and Android.
Information technology's unclear why the executive felt the need to walk back his previous statement, though perchance the flurry of news surrounding the Chromebook Pixel'south death showed the company that interest in Google-branded laptops is still very much live.
