Earlier today I posted Today’s Deal on the Asus C201 Chromebook over at Amazon. That post generated a couple of comments and questions around just which Chromebooks are going to see the Chrome 53 update that will bring Android apps to them. For the record, the C201 is one of the Chromebooks that will be able to run Android apps when it is released later this year. But what about the others? Fortunately the Chromium team at Google have put together a comprehensive list.
To be clear, this list was originally posted by the Chromium team back in May and there have been some additions of newer Chromebooks that have hit the market. It is likely that most new Chromebooks that meet the minimum specifications will be added to this list so bookmark this link for the most up-to-date list. After the break I’ve posted the most recent update to the list from the Chromium team. It’s searchable so just Ctrl+F to find your Chromebook in the list.
Here is the list of Chromebooks that will see the Android apps come to them as of today:

Again, I highly recommend bookmarking the link on the Chromium site to make sure you have the latest list as you shop for your next Chromebook.
You list the Toshiba Chromebook 2 and the Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015). Is the first one listed the older one without the HD display? Please, please, please say yes.
I can’t say for sure Greg. I believe that is the case based on my research but I don’t know that 100% for fact.

Thanks. Good enough to keep hope alive.
