Lenovo isn't saying anything about Android PCs yet in odd support page

A support page on Lenovo’s website was recently highlighted as showing the limitations of Android PCs ahead of Google’s formal debut, but Lenovo has confirmed that the page has nothing to do with that effort, and also removed it.

Google has been teasing the arrival of Android PCs, with plans to debut this new experience that Qualcomm calls “incredible” sometime next year. There are still a lot of questions around this, and that’s why a support page from Lenovo raised some eyebrows.

The folks over at Windows Central highlighted the page earlier week, noting that the bulk of the page “is about why people might want to avoid Android PCs in favor of” Windows. The page brought out how “Android OS for PC” might have compatibility issues and a “learning curve.” Part of the page read that an Android experience might suffer from “limited desktop features, app compatibility issues, gaming performance limitations, hardware compatibility concerns, and a learning curve for new users.”

The page reads as a bit odd, given that Lenovo is likely one of the many brands that would be interested in making hardware for Google’s new Android desktop efforts. So, we reached out to Lenovo for more information.

As it turns out, this has nothing to do with Google’s efforts, and the entire page has since been deleted.

Speaking to 9to5Google, a Lenovo representative shared the following statement:

The downsides listed in the support page might end up partially (or completely) true, but Lenovo was making no claims about what Google is actively working on.
