He was speculated on. He said. It is hoped. And according to An interview with TechradarIt happens. The president of the Android ecosystem, Sameer Samat, said that Google plans to combine Chrome OS and Android “in a single platform”.
Google has kept its phone and tablet operating systems separate from its laptop platform. There has been a lot of crossing over the years – the largest being the introduction of Android applications to Chromebooks in 2016, but they have always coexisted. With the new SAMAT declaration, however, the change is underway.
In the interview, Samat also followed a comment made to Julian Chokkattu from Wired to Google I / O this year, referring to a future Google laptop, declaring that “he is interested in the way people use their laptops these days.” The latest Google laptop was the Pixelbook Go in 2019, which followed the unhappy 2 in 1 pixel list in 2017. If Google plans to merge new platforms, the Google flagship equipment at hand is a must. –Luke Larsen
The pixels are on the way

In other news from Google, the company has set a date for its event produced by Google, where it should start smartphones in the Pixel 10 series, a new pixel watch and new wireless headphones. The keynote takes place on August 20 in Brooklyn, New York, and it starts at 1 p.m. He (10 a.m. Pacific). It will be live as usual.
Google organized its major material event in October, but changed things last year, placing the pixel release date in front of the iPhone, with more breathing before the holiday shopping season. The highest point of the release of this year – other than scoring 10 years of pixel – is that Google is supposed to move to TSMC chips for its tensor chipset G5 due to problems with the Samsung foundry.
Sony surprises with a new camera
With the kind permission of Sony
Sony dropped a new complete camera unexpectedly, RX1R III. The RX1R series was updated for the last time nine years ago. Why now? If I had to guess, I would say that it has a lot to do with the success of compact cameras with a fixed objective, such as the Leica Q series, the Fujifilm X100 series and the Fujifilm GFX100RF. Sorry, you had to wait almost 10 years, RX1 fans, but better late than never.
What do you take from a 10-year development cycle? It turns out that … not so much. The RX1R III is roughly an A7R V reconditioned in terms of image capacities. There is the same complete 61 megapixel sensor associated with the bionz xr image processor of A7R V and the AI dedicated chip. This is an important upgrade for this camera compared to the latest model in the series, but there is no new technology here.
Design changes are more interesting. The RX1R III abandons the Pop-Up electronic viewfinder of the RX1R II in favor of a viewfinder mounted at the rear, which makes it a little at the Sony high resolution travel camera, the A7R C. In addition, Sony dropped the articulated rear screen; This is fixed as the very first RX1R. The best upgrade here is probably that the RX1R III uses the larger batteries of Sony, the NP-FW50, which will considerably improve the life of the batteries.
One thing that has not changed at all since the launch of this series in 2012 is the objective Zeiss Sonnar T * 35 mm f / 2. The big question here is: how will this objective more than more than a decade will work with the last and the best autofocus? We will inform you when we get our hands on a review unit later this year. –Scott Gilbertson
Omega Summer Seamaster
With the kind authorization of Omega
Omega has abandoned this week a bright and summer version of its excellent Seamaster 300m diver, after the bronze and bronze Bordeaux watch in February. Although, yes, it is not exactly a revolutionary gap compared to the original last year, it strikes all the good grades, mainly thanks to the force of the first iteration of November. However, this model has an advantage over its brothers and sisters.
The aluminum telescope and the elegant net bracelet remain, but look carefully and you will see subtle changes, the most pleasant of which is that the wave diagram has been replaced by a black matte black texture. For orange lovers, note the hand of the pacifier and the indices at 12, 3, 6 and 9 have all received a touch of color. A final loyalty is the signing of an orange “seamaster” dial corresponding.
