Samsung building Chromebook with detachable keyboard


For some time now, many believed that Google had abandoned all hope of optimizing the Android platform for tablets.

In place of Android tablets, some speculate that the next iteration of Android tablets will, in fact, be Chromebooks.

At this moment, roughly 60 Chromebooks now have the capability of running Android applications. Many of these devices are also convertible, allowing them to fold back and be used in “tablet” mode.

While this is convenient when you want the keyboard out of the way, it means to use the Chromebook as a tablet, you are stuck with a decent amount of weight and thickness.

The folks over at Chrome Unboxed, who are notorious for finding new devices and features hidden within the Chromium Repository, noticed changes to the code in early October that pointed to a new Chromebook being developed called “Nautilus.”

At this point, there isn’t much known about this Samsung Nautilus Chromebook other than the fact that it’ll be a 2-in-1 device and run on a Kaby Lake Intel processor.

We can guess that it might look like some of Samsung’s other 2-in-1 laptops that it manufacturers to run Microsoft Windows, but nothing is confirmed.

UCJ, UNILORIN.
