Google thinks Android tablets are the ‘future of computers’

The Android tablet market, which attracted great attention in the early 2010s, lost a lot of interest over the years. Interest has dwindled as Google has focused on computers and tablets running Chrome OS. Samsung, which has been making high-end Android tablets for a long time, was almost unrivaled in the Android tablet field. However, it seems that Google has once again taken an interest in Android tablets.

Rich Miner, co-founder of Android, is back in the team

Last year, Google is thought to have launched an in-house initiative for the Android tablet. Rich Miner, one of the founders of Android, has rejoined the Android project. A Google job posting confirms that Google is refocusing on Android tablets. “We believe the future of computing is shifting towards more powerful and capable tablets. We’re working to deliver the next chapter of computing and data input by launching hero experiences that open up new and better ways to be productive and creative, with seamless support across our platforms. In another announcement, it was stated that Google has established a special division for Android tablets in the company, and this team works with developers and mobile device manufacturers. It is stated that Rich Miner, one of the founders of Android, is at a high level in this group.

Google will offer a customized Android experience for large-screen devices with Android 12L, which is expected to arrive in the coming months. Google also encourages developers to optimize their apps for Android 12L. According to information from Android 12L and Google, Android tablets can take place against the iPad again.
