Google acknowledges that not all Android apps perform optimally on Intel devices.

Google has chosen the launch day of its new Googlebook laptops to acknowledge potential performance issues with Intel-based models when running certain Android apps. Previously, the company highlighted that these Android-powered devices provide access to the full Play Store library and feature seamless interactions with Android phones and tablets. However, in a recent statement, it clarified that while all apps are accessible, some may not perform optimally on every Googlebook.

>The vast majority of Android apps run smoothly across both Intel and Qualcomm Googlebooks right out of the box. Because many Android apps were originally designed for Arm chips, a small handful of complex apps or games need some developer tuning to run their best on Intel-based platforms. We’re working hand-in-hand with app developers, Intel, and Qualcomm to continuously optimize performance and expand compatibility across the entire portfolio.

Google has not specified how many apps might experience performance issues or identified any particular apps that could be affected. Among the five Googlebook models released today, three—those from Acer, Asus, and Lenovo—are powered by x86 Intel chips. In contrast, the Dell and HP models utilize Qualcomm’s Arm-based Snapdragon processors, which should enhance compatibility with all Android apps. The Verge team will be testing all five Googlebooks and will share any specific issues encountered.
