Intel has officially confirmed its partnership with Google for the newly announced Googlebook laptop lineup. In a post shared on X, the company said it is thrilled to collaborate with Google on what it describes as “premium, powerful devices designed for Intelligence.” The announcement came shortly after Google gave a preview of its upcoming notebook at the Android Show: I/O Edition, and confirmed that it is working with various PC manufacturers, including HP, Dell, Acer, Asus, and Lenovo.
During the showcase, Google refrained from discussing the core hardware and instead focused entirely on its brand-new operating system, which combines elements of Android and ChromeOS with deep Gemini Intelligence integration. It was initially assumed that the new Googlebook lineup would be based on Arm SoCs, since many aspects of the platform resemble an Android smartphone or tablet experience. However, with Intel now officially involved, there is a possibility that Google’s new AI-focused OS could also support x86 hardware, unless Intel has an Arm-based chip up its sleeve.
