早前，有消息传出 Google 考虑将 Chrome OS 跟 Android 整合，并会在最快 2017年将 Chrome OS 合并至 Android 内。但 Google 最新回应指，他们会将两个系统的优点整合，未有计划淘汰 Chrome OS。
Over the last few days, there’s been some confusion about the future of Chrome OS and Chromebooks based on speculation that Chrome OS will be folded into Android. While we’ve been working on ways to bring together the best of both operating systems, there’s no plan to phase out Chrome OS.
Google 指，在美国学校每天有 30,000 部新 Chromebooks 启动，全球超过 150 个国家的 200万名教师和学生使用 “Share to Classroom” Chrome extension；另外还有不少公司如 Netflix 采用。
Google 计划在 Chrome OS 加入更多功能，例如媒体播放器。Google 亦表示在 2016年会有多部新 Chromebooks 推出。
We have plans to release even more features for Chrome OS, such as a new media player, a visual refresh based on Material Design, improved performance, … stay on the lookout for dozens of new Chromebooks in 2016.
