According to a report published by Android Headlines, there are roughly about nine devices, including the ones manufactured by Acer, Asus, Samsung and Lenovo that still haven’t received the latest ChromeOS update. In fact, the Google-branded Chromebooks also haven’t received the ChromeOS update as well. This includes Google’s Chromebook Pixel (2015). Up till now, only two Chromebooks have gained access to the new software update through Google’s Play Store.

Once the update is installed, the users will be able to install many exciting applications, which were once unavailable to them. It is important that the users ensure that their devices are on full charge during the time of installation. If not, it is always advisable to keep it on charge during the time of installation.
Like mentioned previously, a total of nine devices including two of Google-branded ChromeBooks are yet to receive the update.
Google hasn’t made any mention of a specific date as to which, the update will b rolled out. It may take several days until it’s made officially available.

Most of the ChromeBook devices essentially run on Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS – which was the last major update that they received back in May 2017. The latest update is expected to provide users with the access to important APIs, which include features like Resizable Windows. This feature provides users with full control as to what they want their settings to look like.
