Chromebooks have begun getting the much needed Android 9 Pie update. The new update also includes the versatile Google Gboard keyboard replacement.
Chromebooks have begun getting the latest Android 9 Pie. Google is rolling out the updates gradually. But several users have successfully installed the versatile and powerful Google Android virtual keyboard, the GBoard, and got it working on their devices.
Laptops running Google’s Chrome OS are quite popular owing to their versatility and affordability. The devices sport attractive prices owing to their non-stellar hardware. Still, these Chromebooks perform well for everyday tasks like web-surfing, light office document editing and other tasks that aren’t processor intensive. Moreover, the laptops have a rather respectable battery life, and most of the applications are either lightweight or web-based, making the devices a great choice for students and office goers who do not need a powerful and heavy laptop.
Recently, the popular and capable HP Chromebook x2 received an astonishing update to Android 9 Pie update. The update was surprising primarily because the device was on the now increasingly dated Android 7.
